This is Squeaks. Squeaks is the resident parrot who lives at Casa Bella Rita, the Bed & Breakfast that we spent our last night at in Costa Rica.
Squeaks had free roam around the house and gardens. He (I say he, but they said that they don’t know if it is a boy or a girl) had a cage, which had his food and toys, but also had toys hung up in the courtyard gardens as well. Squeaks clearly liked his current situation and the attention that he got from his people and their guests.
He especially took a liking to Craig and wanted to hang out on his shoulder the entire time we were there. When Steve or Rita would go to move Squeaks off his shoulder for one reason or another, Squeaks would protest by biting at their hands and then quickly fly and climb back aboard. Better Craig’s shoulder than mine, given my fear of birds.
Squeaks also has a bad habit of knocking over cans. It started off as something funny that they encouraged, but now it is a problem in that you can’t have cans out around Squeaks without him charging at them. He attempted to knock over my coke at dinner time. Funny bird quirks.
They also had a plethora of dogs at their house, two theirs and two that just like to hang out. You would think I would have taken photos of them but apparently I didn’t take a single one. It was the end of our vacation, and I clearly wasn’t thinking.
This entry also marks being caught up with Costa Rica entries! Whoosh. In the future I’ll post separate entries with more photos, however I am still in the process of editing them all.
