They come in all colors and shades from matte black to dark pink, white to rosy. There are quite tiny - a matchbox or huge - more than two and a half meters. Some hunt hares and deer, others delight our ears unique trills.
Today, April 1 - International Day of birds. For the first time in the USSR, it was mentioned in 1927. On that day only in Moscow was hung over a thousand birdhouses. Then, in modern language, the rally was attended by five thousand people.
Murmansk, frankly, not spoiled riot of colors - not the nature. More pleasant to admire the colorful birds discordant. Congratulate their cruise holiday, we went to Murmansk Regional Center for Continuing Education of Children "Lapland". Located on the second floor living area. Together with hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, snails, chinchillas and other animals live here three dozen birds. Everyone - his temper. One can feed from the hand, the other finger in the cage not insert - tsapnet!
For example, ozherelovy parrot green handsome. Familiarity and obsessive attention to the person does not like. A similar approach - getting nervous. Prefers that you stood aloof, and talked with him.
A little further, fun chirping canary yellow. Next turn my head colored finches. In the neighborhood - Diamond Dove. She's new.
For many years the most famous bird in a large family remains Motja. This gray parrot African Grey. In the zoo she got an adult and living here since 2005. Bird allowed to walk freely on the floor, climb the cells.
However, she was terribly afraid, when there goes rabbit or chinchilla. Motja produces the same sound, how in the nature of her relatives reported the approach of a snake.
Of course, no one here does not hunt birds. Furry animals treated them peacefully.
Motja people are not afraid and gladly communicate with them in their own language.
- It perfectly mimics the different sounds, including voices of the people. And can sing, and coughing, or even laughing, - says the teacher of additional education Svetlana Travin. - And meows and barks Motja. If beside her drink tea, she also begins to "squish".
Sometimes feathered lady and it gives meaningful phrases. There was a case: about cells was cleaner and talking to a parrot. And then Motja says: "Get better!". Think about it after that, it's just copying or really understands Grey ...
Some birds in the zoo bring citizens, some come here to exchange, someone acquire. This is a very fragile creature. Birds can scare even deadly loud sound. So they should be treated with extreme caution.
As a guinea pig or chinchilla birds do not cuddle hands. But the young visitors corner of the living adore him winged inhabitants.
- Most of all I like the turtle. She has such a small beak, such beautiful eyes! - Admires fourth-Nagy Selyugina. - I love to watch the birds when they are looking, looking at me. Yet they fly beautifully. Motja also very funny. She communicates with me. Come - says, "Hi!".
Often among the guests zoougolka - children with developmental delays. Communicating with animals and birds they only benefit.
- Right you can see that the guys are transformed, there has been progress in the treatment - says Svetlana V..

While we were talking, Motja listened attentively, as if memorizing. I think that one day she will tell the next guest zoougolka supposedly prrrrihodili zhurrrnalisty, interrrvyu brrrali.
