Benevolent bird (Singapore)

 

Further to blog Polyglot Polly, ex-RI-classmate Lay Geok said of her African Grey parrot: 

Sparky is benevolent and kind. The lizards in my house are all fat! Sparky feeds them, even to the extent of tearing up food into little pieces. She will throw small little seeds from her seed mix for the sparrows. Also call out to the mynahs when we are out of sight so they can come in to feed on whatever there is.

She got mad with me for taking a slipper to bash a grasshopper and screamed ‘mummy!’ to try and stop me.
