I did! And you're absolutely right, (depending on the species) they are obnoxiously loud. Bigger birds need hours and hours of attention and time out of their cages everyday, or they'll go crazy and get stressed. Unfortunately, many people don't realize this and they get a big amazon or cockatoo because they're 'exotic' and they're great talkers, but they don't realize how much time and attention they need to give the birds, and in some unfortunate situations they end up abusing the birds when they start screaming and squawking. That's why I'm loving working at this place once a week. I get to talk and play and take care of the birds for a few hours, then not have to deal with the noise and the other responsibilities that come with owning birds.
