I have a wildlife zoo

Mi Jin thought for a moment, "Do you know who I am?"

Jinzhi answered respectfully, "Beautiful lady!"

This parrot could actually give compliments!

Mi Jin's eyebrows lifted in delight, smiling as she asked, "Then who are you?"

Jin Martin answered rudely, "I'm your uncle!"

"Ah!" Mi Jin was dumbfounded, and the surrounding tourists who had been expecting it to say something else started laughing heartily at this unexpected answer!

Jingwu, not pleased with what she heard, nudged Jin Martin aside, "You're farting!"

Jingwen turned her head away in disdain, "The sorrows and joys of humans cannot be shared, I just think they're noisy!"

The tourists were stunned, "These parrots are performing a crosstalk routine!"

"Isn't it said that after the founding of the country, animals shouldn't become so tricky!"

"Hey, hey!" Fang Ye quickly pinched the beaks of the two birds, "That's a swear word, children shouldn't say it! Say it again, and I'll put you in solitary confinement."

He was also puzzled, wondering when they had learned this, as he had no idea.

What he had taught them was all auspicious phrases, like hi beautiful lady, handsome guy, greetings for various holidays, and ancient poetry.

The tourists were also to blame, teaching them swear words, which really wasn't good. What if the macaw picked it up and kept on shouting it all day? It wouldn't just be one parrot's problem. If the parrots taught each other and all of them learned it, that would be a big trouble.

Just imagine a bunch of parrots sitting in the trees and shouting "I'm your uncle" at tourists; the thought was too beautiful to contemplate.

There were children visiting Linhai Zoo, and if they heard this and started imitating it, the bad influence would be even worse. Threatening solitary confinement was no joke.

Fang Ye thought to himself that if the parrots didn't shape up, he might need to conduct some thought reform on them, like handing them a book by Marx to study!

He gently scratched Jingwen's beak with his finger, "You're acting like an old user of social media with depression now, aren't you? Where did you learn that strange talk, and remember you're a parrot, not a human, alright!"

After getting a lecture, a few parrots knew they had misspoken and sincerely bowed their heads to apologize.

Seeing this, Fang Ye took out two peanuts from his pocket and gave one to each bird, Jin Martin included, "Remember, don't say it again next time!"

Jin Martin didn't grab the peanut but pouted his beak and made a crisp "mua" sound, "Zookeeper, I love you!"

He flattered Fang Ye first before starting to eat the peanut!

Mi Jin watched with amusement, "Zookeeper, your parrots really are smart!"

Fang Ye explained, "Usually we teach them more serious stuff. These swear words were probably taught by tourists who thought it was funny. The parrots don't understand what they mean, they just blab. You can ask them if they have any talents!"

Really?

Mi Jin was somewhat skeptical, looking at how obediently the parrots had lowered their heads to admit their mistake under Fang Ye's scolding; perhaps they really did understand the meaning of their words.

So she asked again, "What can you do?"

Jin Martin boasted proudly, "I can sing, I can dance, and I can play chess!"

While saying this, he shook his head and body back and forth, not so much dancing as it looked like clubbing!

Being able to sing and dance might be true, but playing chess was obviously a bluff.

Fang Ye was speechless, "Hey, when I ask what you can do, shouldn't you perform a poem, haven't I taught you poetry?"

Jinzhi shook his head and, with his deep voice, recited fervently and loudly, "The white sun sets behind the mountains, the Yellow River flows into the sea. To enjoy a grander sight, ascend another floor!"

Jinzhi had been able to recite an entire poem without any hesitation or forgetting the words.

Not only was his articulation clear, but it was also full of emotion.

Watching him shake his head and sway as he recited, one could truly see the carefree demeanor of a literati composing poetry.

As he reached the end, his feet rose higher and higher until he finally flapped his wings and took flight!

Circling around Fang Ye, he landed back on Fang Ye's head, nodding courteously to the visitors and the parrots perched on the branches!

The other parrots, upon hearing him recite poetry, stretched their necks to look over, their eyes unblinking, seeming to admire Jinzhi's intelligence.

Jin Martin flapped his wings and shouted, "Good poem! Good poem!"

The surrounding visitors, as if waking from a dream, clapped vigorously with a chorus of "squawks"!

Mi Jin couldn't help but join in the applause, "Director, your parrots are really smart!"

Fang Ye said with a smile, "Parrots are naturally intelligent birds. They desire to perform, and when they learn something to show off to the visitors, the praise and applause they receive are very motivating! They're quite driven to learn new things."

"By the way, Director, how do you train the parrots to fly back and forth like that?"

Fang Ye explained, "That's a fairly basic training. Our animal keepers hold a nut or some other treat in their hand and feed it to them while blowing a whistle. We get them to associate the whistle sound with food. So, when they hear a whistle, they know it's time for food!

Animal training is like that, using food to get animals to cooperate with you. If they do it right, they get a reward."

At that moment, a child looking at the beautiful macaws on Fang Ye's body, with eyes full of envy, pleaded, "Director Brother, can you let the parrot play with me?"

"Uh..."

Fang Ye felt somewhat troubled. He himself had the affable skill, which allowed him to attract animals to him, but he couldn't transfer it to others.

Pointing to the child, he asked the parrots, "Who wants to go and play with the little friend? I'll reward you with a treat for playing for a bit!"

Jin Martin, taking the lead, flew out and "plop," dropped a dropping right on the child's head!

Then he flew back, looking for a reward, and said, "Treat!"

Fang Ye was caught between laughter and tears, "Hey, hey, you misunderstood! You little rascal..."

The child, initially overjoyed, was confused to see Jin Martin fly over and then away. When the child's parents uncontrollably laughed and pointed out the bird dropping on his head, he burst into tears!

The more the child wailed, the more the parents laughed, even taking a photo.

Fang Ye quickly apologized, "I'm sorry! Our birds are not very familiar with this kind of service, but we'll be sure to give them more guidance in the future!"

He then placed a parrot on his hand for the child to touch the feathers, fulfilling the child's wish to experience it!

The child forgot his previous woes and happily posed for a photo with Fang Ye and the macaw.

As the day passed, every visitor who came to the tropical bird pavilion left satisfied and content!

Mi Jin also wrote a report about the bird pavilion and published it:

"Linhai Zoo's tropical bird pavilion is now open, featuring dozens of distinctive bird species in a beautifully green and shady environment where visitors feel as if they are in a forest, observing birds in a natural setting, listening to their song.

Inside the pavilion, a skywalk allows visitors to stroll as if moving through treetops, offering views from different elevations and is accessible for wheelchair users due to its barrier-free design.

At the entrance of the pavilion, there are informative display boards introducing the various bird species.

But the standout attraction is undeniably the vibrant 'Parrot Rain'..."
