An introduction to “Gimli“ a small and very cute Red-rumped parakeet. She is sitting in my bookshelf, one of her favorite places to play peek-a-boo and generally just hide (she finds it really exciting and fun it seems -- hence all the chirping and territorial tail-wagging displays, I have a feeling she is claiming the shelf for her own). She flies free in the house but likes to be where she can see me and what I am doing (which is working on the computer -- I am a full-time freelance illustrator). I am hoping to post several more video clips in order to record her progress when I am training her. I have been using only postive reinforcement (also known as clicker training and operant conditioning) and have had incredibly fast progress! (Hence the decision to start filming so I can share my experience and, er, all my mistakes on the way!) PS. I am speaking to her in Swedish.
