Pendulum Parrot

Bella can be so funny some times. In my attempts to encourage him to climb up a knotted rope I have attatched a 1.5 meter rope to the ceiling with a swing and his fav toy up the top. He discovered that instead of climbing up the rope, if he hags upside down from the bottom knot and flaps his wings he can swing. . He then started flaping so that the rope would spin in a circle. You could see the expression of "this is heaps more interesting than climbing" on his face It was so funny watching an inverted bird flap like mad to get some speed up and then enjoy the motion as it slowed down. Of course he's now realised that it makes us laugh so i think there is little hope of him getting the idea of climbing the rope anytime soon.
