I published The Art of the FlockCall in late 2012. I wrote to challenge the idea of a pet parrot. Now it’s time to tinker with another loose bolt inside the parrot lifestyle. Expectations. Not theirs, ours. A parrot lifestyle requires a relationship built around honest communication with you. And that communication will rely on you understanding their expectations first. Which is tinkering with the human’s expectations of being most important. They are not. If you’re doing this parrot lifestyle right.

Humans herd. Parrots flock. Our abilities, tendencies, communication and languages start from opposite ends. In this essay I offer up the idea of building a bridge between two different thinkers. A way to meet in the middle to create a relationship based on mutual reasonable expectations. First things first, you better start thinking like a parrot.

Booklet 4 takes the companion parrot loving human on a tour of the human's perspective. Our relationships, no matter who they are with, can only be as strong as we are healthy. Relationships are two way streets. Investing in our own mental health is a gift to our lifestyle. An imperative step to take for all things successful. Parrots are hyper aware.

Our birds will let us know. Their concern for ...

Musings began May 11th, 2016 on my personal Facebook page. Intended as simple writing exercises, they fast became popular open windows and doors to what came and went in my day. You might call this a diary, but that wouldn’t define musings properly. You might consider this a “note to self” as well. But that too, falls short. Musings are a still frame to the truth of my daily life. And on reflection, the truth of all our lives. We are all a light that was meant to be shared. Musings is intended to slow life down for the reader, while we take a walk together through my daily moments of ...

The Felix Diary Thingy is a constant and reliable source of upliftment in a world gone awfully confused.

You can't go wrong with a ...

We are the sum of those people we’ve met along the way mixing with our DNA directives. DNA is the keel by which all influences must obey. There’s no getting around that primordial ooze we call family. Call it pre-existing conditionals. This is my childhood journey offered to you as a muse. An affirmation. An awareness. A hope. A rope. A relatable tale I hope will find itself on your keep list. My childhood journey was hilarious. Some of which are funnier through the eyes of an adult. We will laugh together here. Let me share my recipe. For balance. And joy. And contentment. And ...

Parrots communicate all the time in a flock. Action, sounds, choices, voices, foods, feet, looks, and calls. They communicate with flight and landing, climbing, and perching. They are an elite force in communication skills. Humans, not so much. We'll need to build a thoroughfare to travel on to improve our communication with our parrots. A Language Highway traveled with food, materials, views, choices, and commitment. Just a few tools are necessary to build this road. Let me show you.

Finally, in Booklet 6, we take a look at all of this lifestyle business through the eyes of an exotic species we refer to as a companion parrot. What do they really want? How do they see things differently than us? What can we change, provide, or offer to make them know we love them? Knowing what a parrot wants makes it easier than guessing what they might like. Let's take a bird's brain view of what it looks like from their side of the perch.

Sometimes you choose a parrot, sometimes the parrot chooses you. That magical moment where to sets of eyes, and two minds find each other. There's no explaining it. Powerful, precise, honest, and deep. A genesis moment with a companion parrot is powerful. The real story starts after the genesis, though. The real moment where you realize there's much more to this feathered flirt than meets your eyes. Now the journey begins. The real Genesis Story. Book 2 will clarify a misconception.
