overheard at home:
(wife is sweeping up around a large birdcage with two afrikan grey parrots) I'm really tired of cleaning up this mess, look at it. Feathers everywhere, and food, why do you throw food out of your cage? It's not free. All you do is make messes don't you? I never hear you offer to clean up though. Oh no, you want mommy to clean all day long don't you? Who hates the green bits? I see a lot of green bits on the floor. Who made this mess?
(the afrikan grey named Baby) I didn't do it!
wife (a little surprised and has stopped sweeping) Well me either!
(we think the birds have heard the kids say that when they get asked who made the mess)
