Igor the Magnifient...

...this going to take some imagination on your part....bear with me, I'm still laughing, and in awe, of this sweet little guy...

As you know, Igor likes his cardboard tubes....he'll play with tubes and balls for long periods of time...the smaller tp tubes he puts his head into and walks around his cage, perches and all....but he, also. must baptism each one in his water dish...the longer paper towel tunes, he does some other stuff....like cramming his head in them at night, when the light beside him is on, so he can go to sleep.....however, he has not managed yet to get the bigger tube into his water dish...

Picture facing the cage....seed dish on the right, water dish on the left.....ok, now he has dragged the long tube to the front of the cage, up along the front at an angle with the top resting on the seed dish.....now. I was watching as he crammed his head in the top of the tube....fumbled around...then somehow he pushed himself, launched if you will, the tube, head still inside, towards the water dish....his freak'n little feet kick'n the whole way, and upside down, in a big arc coming to rest on the water dish..popped out standing on his perch.....stalked around observing it all....then went into a tirade because he hadn't got it the water dish as he'd planned.....he grabbed the tube and flung it to the back of the cage cursing his little Quacker way the whole time....jumped down and beat that tube up big time....LOL....I'm watching this LMAO....and all I could picture was his tiny little kick'n wildly as he swung the tube across the way while upside down..........LOLOLOLOLOL.........yup, Igor's a keeper.....fits right in here..

He's a genius bird.  He won't rest until he figures out how to do it.  You will let us know when he does.

...of course, when he does he'll likely tell 'EUREKA" !!!!!!!    .....
