Robin is a feisty large parrot in a little body! He really thinks he is king. He hates any other birds, and has a dominant personality. He also has a quick and bad temper with an occasional violent streak. He absolutely loves attention and petting, but is equally as independent.
I am very proud of him for overcoming his terrible jealousy of other birds. It was a very traumatic experience for him. It took him about a year to accept that we live with other birds, since when they came, it had been many years since Robin lived with other birds. With this, plus other instances over the years, he had proved to me that he is mentally and emotionally very strong. |
