The Parrot

Parrots live in the forests of South America, where summer lasts all the year round. The parrot makes its home in the forest, because there it can find shade in the heat of the day.

Parrots eat fruit and nuts. They like wild cherries best of all. They like them because of the stones. The beak of the parrot is very sharp and it cracks these stones easily.

Parrots like to bathe very much. They fly till they find water. They deepen into the water and splash it over their feathers. Then they sit in the sun till they are dry. In the middle of the day when the heat becomes very intense the parrots sit in the trees and sleep. But in the evening, when the sun is going down, they wake up. They eat fruit, go to the water and bathe again. Only after that they go to rest for the night. Their sleeping-room is a hollow tree. The she-parrot lays her eggs in these hollow trees.
