This factor influences parrots behavior in your house more than any other. Parrots are most easily hurt when feeding on the ground. Membership in a group plays an important function in insuring their safety and improving their chances of survival from attacks by predators. The most common predators of parrots include hawks, snakes, cats, monkeys, and bats. Some predators make attacks only during the day while others hunt in the night. As prey animals, parrots are constantly watching out for danger and they instinctively (本能地) react to risks. Their first choice is to take flight. However, if this is not possible, they will fight with their powerful beaks to defend themselves. Because their biggest enemy is the hawk, parrots are especially reactive to quick movements from above and behind. For this reason, it is wise to avoid quick, sudden movements near your bird. This is a built-in reaction not subject to logic or reason. Simple and relatively harmlesshousehold objects can draw extreme fear responses froma bird. For example, a balloon may represent a hawk or a vacuum hose (吸尘器软管) may be the same as a snake in your birds mind. As prey animals, parrots are often frightened by exposure to new household items or strangers. It is important to expose your bird to safe experiences and changes starting at a very young age to build flexibility and improve their adaptability. Variety in diets and toys, travel, and exposure to new people and places all help to make your bird more flexible and adaptable to change.24.
