Sparky the Quaker Parrot is a Master Builder

Sparky the Quaker parrot belongs to Linda Magee, an important figure in the Northwest U.S. classical music scene. Linda has given Sparky a lot of room to build an extraordinary indoor nest which clearly demonstrates this species extraordinary construction abilities, evidence of which we see in Brooklyn and elsewhere wherever wild Quaker parrots are in residence. Go Sparky!

(Note: don't miss the sequence about 4 minutes in when the camera pulls back. Only then can you see the true magnitude of this Quaker's architectural ambitions!)
