That's funny that you should say that. So far, in the last year alone, I've met three people who hiked with thier parrots riding on thier shoulders. Made for some interesting conversation at the least. First guy I met I thought he just had a stuffed parrot on his shoulder until the thing turned and looked at me. Pretty funny stuff.

One of my birds is too big to ride on my shoulder. And she tends to bite my ears to hang on. The other one has to wear a leash because she can fly. I thought about bringing her with her leash, but what a pain in the butt that would have been. I might try it someday still.
Some knew me as Piper, others as just Diane.
I hiked the PCT: Mexico to Mt. Shasta, 2008. Santa Barbara to Canada, 2009.
Matey, I know what a dead parrot looks like, and that's a dead parrot.
