We have some new additions to our feathered family.
Red, our red-rump parrot, was not impressed.
For years he has had his space more or less to himself, and then suddenly these tiny little birds moved in and apparently nobody thought to ask his permission. 
At first, he just sat there looking offended.
Then the newcomers started settling in, taking over the branches as if they had always belonged there.
Eventually, I’m pretty sure a meeting had been called.
Red appears to be laying down the house rules.
Who sits where.
Who gets which branch.
Who is allowed near his food.
And probably a reminder that this was his house first.
Whether anybody was actually listening is another matter.
That is the funny thing about introducing new animals into a home. They all seem to have their own little personalities, territories and opinions about how things should be run.
Red definitely has opinions.
And judging by that meeting, he intends to make sure everybody knows them.
