Here I'm going to show you how I learned to drill holes in walnut halves.  It was Irving who inspired me to learn this.  He loved walnuts and I wanted to find a way to string them on some toys with shreddable material.  I hoped he would start shredding the toys and not his feathers.

Below is a video to watch of Irving getting an almond out of his toy.

I expect to pass through life but once.  If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again.

Phoenix Landing was created to help parrots have good homes across their entire lives, no matter how many homes that may be.  Parrots are resilient and adaptable, and will thrive in new environments if they have space, good nutrition, safety and behavior interactions based positive reinforcement.  Phoenix Landing is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to the quality of life for parrots.  Phoenix Landing re-homes parrots and help them to find a new family. This process is coupled with a robust education program, giving adopters many tools to help everyone succeed. For more information about Phoenix Landing go to www.phoenixlanding.org .
