First Trip to the Bird Sanctuary

This was my first trip to the Bird Sanctuary in Summerland. I wasn't sure what to expect or do when I went there but when I met the owner of the place and her cockatoo Dolly, I was surprised how social parrots were. When I went back, most of the parrots and other birds weren't too sure about me but when I went down to visit the other birds they were a bit more open to me. It wasn't until a few minutes that I had a bunch of screaming birds yelling at me and saying words like "I love you!" and "Hi!" to get my attention.
I have to say I really enjoyed my time there. The birds were fun to talk and just hanging out with. I plan to make a project dealing with music and their singing and I will probably do more projects with them.
