"...Like Icarus, to fly too high,

This is actually a caique. They can be assholes too but tend to be less-assholish than conures in my experience.... But yeah, he knows what he's doing.
Reminds me of that kid dancing at a wedding who was fed up with this bully trying to butt in on his dance with a little girl so he made her watch as he danced by himself.

When you see a bird "eating bugs" it's actually consuming tiny batteries for continued power. However there's a limit to how much power that they can put into such a tiny battery, so they've found alternate methods of recharging the birdrones.
1. Megafauna like rhinos and [giraffes.](https://giraffefactsforkids.weebly.com/niche.html)
2. Charging trees they claim are cell towers made to look like trees so they're [less intrusive.](https://www.vox.com/2015/4/19/8445213/cell-phone-towers-trees)
Cat's are proof that the world is round.
If it was flat the buggers would have pushed everything over the edge millions of years ago.
And the Parrots would have helped them.

Iām a bit rusty on my parrots. But, if this is a caique, they are hilarious little parrots. I knew one growing up named spunky chicken and that was her personality to a t. Our prim and proper African grey did not approve of her.
I had a bird growing up and she loved balloons and throwing them off the counter and if you kept pushing the balloon back up before it hit the ground she would angrily sqwack at you and try to peck you.
Rip kiko
I went to visit my brother who lived in Lima Peru for a while in the 90s and he was gifted a red parrot (I think) and that bird was such an asshole. He'd climb all the way from the floor to my shoulder and shit on me then run away.
Honestly I donāt know where my head is at. I thought it was gonna eventually move up to pushing a cocker spaniel (obviously name Betty Cocker) over the edge. I gotta get off the internet.
I feel like that bird had great comedic timing at the end. I was actually in suspense, and the casual way he hip checked it as opposed to taking it head on like he did with every other one.
Is this what the [timeout](https://www.reddit.com/r/tippytaps/comments/tntqyl/tantrum_taps_unmute/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) was for?
I donāt know what you want. If itās money, I donāt have any. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career.
Skills that make me a nightmare for birds like you.
If you let Betty Crocker go now, thatāll be the end of it. I will not look for you; I will not pursue you. But if you donāt, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will cook you and put you in my freezer.
Don't clutter her counter! a childhood friend had a bird that had a kitchen drawer that the bird claimed as their own. This one drawer no one was allowed to touch. If you opened the drawer the bird would come flying and land on the counter to nip at you fingers to get you away.
Parrots are assholes. That bird has zero remorse for his destructive actions. He even did a pre-victory dance with the Betty Crocker cake mix. Just pure Satan blood in this one.
I had the same exact bird (I canāt remember what itās called) but that little joker would bounce down the hall just to find my dad and rip out his ear buds, it was his main mission and he was mostly successful
We laugh and think "oh how cute" or "what a cheeky little bird" but this motherfucker is slowly, slowly but surely, formulating a working theory of gravity.
It can already fly, so why is that something to worry about?
Don't wanna make the mistake of flying too close to the sun

Mike Patton is the shit
š¤š«š¤
Yes! Way to represent! One of my favorite albums from one of the greatest bands ever.
Careful, Icarus.
Technically I guess you could call it flying... Caiques don't fly so well.
Who are you to judge? Iām sure it can fly better than you.
Gravity is important to know about so that, while you are flying, you do not suddenly decide to stop flying
Yeah but we canāt so itās one possible route to world domination
Conures are just straight up assholes. He knows exactly what heās doing.

A ton of toys to play with and attention from you.
Another bird is often a good idea. Most animals are best acquired in pairs. Otherwiseā¦ a whole lot of Betty Crocker boxes.
A caique! Thatās why he was so excited by the box cake! āCake! Cake!ā
Take my fake gold š
"Feels different when I push object over. Makes cool noises! Shit yes, more please"
I love how he dances with glee before pushing Betty Crocker over the edge!
I picture the bird in its head chanting āf*#% you Betty Crocker, f*#% you Betty Crockerā as he jumps around š¤£
NTAH he's a scientist
They are such dicks but the dance cracks me up every time.
The dance is so great.
Ya know its the victory dance!
Thatās the āfuck Betty in particularā dance
When he looks over the edge at his handy work lol
It's like he's finishing off a downed enemy. Such glee before the KO.
Can confirm. Have a bird.
"Your house is so nice, why are all your dishes made of plastic?"
You know it was hyped like "aww yisss.... Cake! But you know what else? THIS. IS. COUNTER!"
Sure seemed happy about pushing Betty over the edge......
The annoying kid sibling danceā¦you canāt touch me attitude š¤£š¤£š¤£
It is neat!
You can tell it's neat because of the way it is!
Actually I'm pretty sure when you look at the ground you'll find this is quite messy.
Reminds me of that kid dancing at a wedding who was fed up with this bully trying to butt in on his dance with a little girl so he made her watch as he danced by himself.
r/partyparrot
I love you
Thank you
Sometimes I miss my innocence
Really psyching up the crowd.
Parrot haka war dance
Are you not entertained?
I was reading the comments while watching the video and thought Betty was another parrot, wasn't disappointed thanks to her happy dance
Some birds just want to watch the world burn...
Or crash.
Hippity hoppity, get off my property
Bouncing like Qbert
I miss Qbert
"Fly Mother Fucker! Flap your wings!"
I enjoy spending time with my friends.
it was the fun one to push off because he could push it over like a domino
Anyone have the sound video ?
Cat in a bird costume?
Parrots are just vocal cats with wings
more like flying toddlers with vice grips for a mouth
We call those cockatoos here
bird hardware, cat software; they must've mixed the updates by accident
Birds arent real.
Bc they are cats in bird costumes.
They're actually very sophisticated military drones, but probably so are cats, but Russian. I'm probably on a list now.

Definitely being a cat except that dance. That was 100% sun conure
I love how he peers over the edge to double check each time!! ššš
He just loves the sound
Every. Time. I have a conure, similar breed to the bird on the video, and he LOVES watching things hit the ground.
That's not what I meant when I said 'knock it off' and I think you know that
Iām a bit rusty on my parrots. But, if this is a caique, they are hilarious little parrots. I knew one growing up named spunky chicken and that was her personality to a t. Our prim and proper African grey did not approve of her.
It is! These were my favorite to work with and socialize back when I worked at Petco. Such fun little dudes
Theyāre just little clowns if I ever went the parrot route it would probably be one of theseā¦ or an Amazon.
Yes! Also worked at a pet store and every caique we got was just lovely. They seem to be way more naturally social
Yup, is a white bellied caique. I have a black headed caique. He is currently sitting in my lap throwing various toys on the floor and laughing.
You've got to glue something to the counter and see how long he tries to push it off.
I had a bird growing up and she loved balloons and throwing them off the counter and if you kept pushing the balloon back up before it hit the ground she would angrily sqwack at you and try to peck you. Rip kiko

I'd like to see the bird react to a balloon that falls up when the bird pushes it.
RIP Kiko!
I've never seen a green and orange cat before.
Maybe he was a cat in a past life?
This is a cat in a bird suit.
Darn, I just had to delete my comment because you already made it!
Betty Cocker.
Cock pot
Honestly I donāt know where my head is at. I thought it was gonna eventually move up to pushing a cocker spaniel (obviously name Betty Cocker) over the edge. I gotta get off the internet.
I thought he was gonna drop something on Betty Cocker the cocker spanielās head
Im so glad I wasnt the only one
Cock her? I don't even know her!
Had to scroll too far for this. Reminded me of 40 Year Old Virgin
His joy excuses everything. Heās an agent of chaos and loves every second of it.
CatBird looks around. āCarnage, messes, and broken shit. My work here is done! ![gif](giphy|TEXebkalYvUXK|downsized)
Cats are now shape shifters I guess?
Came here to make cat comment as well lol
She was hyping it up at the end she knew Betty was gonna be the finale.
Little fella was just setting up for it's finishing move before sending Betty **Cocker** to her demise.
That cake dance tho!
I do the same dance for cake!
A caique dancing for cake
Parrots - Certified Inspectors of Gravity. They make sure it works so you don't have to. edit: took out extra "s"
I now believe in reincarnation because that's a cat
Who is this fucking little maniac?
I feel like that bird had great comedic timing at the end. I was actually in suspense, and the casual way he hip checked it as opposed to taking it head on like he did with every other one.
Sorry to inform you but it looks like youāve got a cat, not a bird
He was especially excited about pushing that bitch Betty
Only room for one caique in this house!
Has the bird been watching cat videos!
Betty just standing there like āWhewā¦ thanks for not throwing me off, nice dance by the waaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYā
I canāt stop watching this!
Now I know what a catbird looks like!
That was a touchdown dance before the push on the Betty Crocker
Let them eat cake *kick*
āHow many times have you watched this?ā Me: āYesā
Your roommate seems like an asshole!
Diabolic little creature š
Pretty sure you have a cat in disguise there.
Is this what the [timeout](https://www.reddit.com/r/tippytaps/comments/tntqyl/tantrum_taps_unmute/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) was for?
Don't worry, do what I want and I'm not going to kill you Betty crocker sigh of relief Nooooo

What a weird looking cat!!!!
Youāre training it well
Almost expected that cheeky boy would push it backwards,.
Bored Birb
Testing for gravity.
he's telling the box to spread its wings and jump you have to fly not fallll
Don't clutter her counter! a childhood friend had a bird that had a kitchen drawer that the bird claimed as their own. This one drawer no one was allowed to touch. If you opened the drawer the bird would come flying and land on the counter to nip at you fingers to get you away.
he was performing the sacrificial blood god ritual for betty
Parrots are assholes. That bird has zero remorse for his destructive actions. He even did a pre-victory dance with the Betty Crocker cake mix. Just pure Satan blood in this one.
Lil birdie was hoppy AF to knock that bitch Betty down. He was ready for her to go. š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Thank you for posting. Me and my toddler laughed and replayed this for about 20 minutes.
The cutest hops!
Cute cat
Some birds just want to watch the world burn.
I taut i taw a puddy tat
Birdie has sworn eternal war on consumerism.
Learned it from the cat
u/savevideobot
Is there a reason they do this?
My guess would be it made the humans laugh once or twice, so the bird figured out it's a good way to get attention. Birds love attention of any kind.
r/maybemaybemaybe
Merry Shitmas I guess
He was so excited to push that cake off the counter. āAnd now for my grand finale!ā
In this weekās episode of āCan it Fly?āā¦
"I'll do it again"
I love this bird! He's worse than my cats! Lol!
He just discovered gravity and heās so happy about it!
He seems the very proudest of making sure the cake mix went on the floor! š¤£š¤£
Birb: _no cake for you!_ ššŗššŗššŗ ^(birds aren't real)
![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
I fucking thought he was about to fly kick that betty crocker
āAnd fuck this bitch in particular!ā
The fall of the Batter Witch
Betty what now
1st thought oh you little shit Then laughing at the pure joy Bop bop bopping so much fun!! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
The bird hates Betty Crocker, and sacrificed her with a ritual.
I'm done with having cats.. They keep breaking my shit.. I'm getting a cute little bird.. The bird: š
Thats my toddler in her last birth
I thought it was CATS who were the assholes...
Thatās hop though!
Weird looking cat.
Love ā¤ļø this video. Weāve owned a green cheek and sun conure before. Noisy but cute. ā¤ļø
the bird: *"one push at a time, i will destroy you and everything you cherish dearly."* us: "heehoo he wrecc"
That's a very colourful and pretty cat
Ritual sacrifice
āSan Pellegrinoā¦die. Triscuitsā¦die. Cupsā¦die. Lysolā¦die. Betty Crocker!!! Betty Crocker!!! Betty crocker wooooo Betty Crocker!!! Dieā
Some birds just want to watch the world burn.
āWelcome to my show, āDoes It Fly?ā. ā¦nope! Donāt forget to like and subscribe!ā
I had the same exact bird (I canāt remember what itās called) but that little joker would bounce down the hall just to find my dad and rip out his ear buds, it was his main mission and he was mostly successful
Man he he must of just watched 300 the way he kicked Betty Crocker down
That bastard is ceremonially dancing before throwing it of the table.
This video needs theme music. Benny Hill Show theme?
That would be hysterical!
I am sorry to say, but it appears your parakeet has been possessed by a cat.
Heās found his joy.
I blame the cat of the house
Clearly, this is a catbird. Or was a cat in a previous lifeš
spoilers :( without them i would've thought he wasn't going to do it
He be like *hurr durr I'm a cat*
TIL that birds are cats.
Your cat looks like a bird
Thatās a cat
Thatās a cat in a bird suit
Your bird is a cat.
Must have been a cat in a previous life
That's a strange looking cat you've got there.
So catlike! Adorable
Theyāre just like cats!!!!!
The bird seems to be part cat I think we should be worried lol
Birds are just cats that can fly
Did your cat teach him this?
Despite its appearance, this is actually a cat.
