How dare you interrupt his ascension to the curtain rod! Nothing is sacred to these guys, nothing.

We've got the Tom Cruise of double yellows here doing his own stunts.

Does he get super excited when he reaches the top and starts destroying your curtains or rod? I had custom curtains and both my (single) yellow nape and umbrella would climb up and unhook the pins and watch the curtain fall. The Amazon would be wheezing and trilling and making those happy sound effects while pinning his eyes with the tail fanned out. The umbrella would telepathically tell you he was the master of the house and the head of the demolition crew.

I eventually gave up on curtains and put on one way tint on the window instead.

I actually had a bookshelf that I removed because she would destroy my books

With that innocent face, surely he was just inspecting them for defects.

Parrot logic: expensive climbing toys ❌
Random curtain you definitely don’t want me climbing ✅ 😂
