(Oh yeah. That's another thing. Birds do this thing where if you start eating, they start eating too. It's cute until they try to steal your food.)

The macaw tilted his head, then nibbled on the cracker.

(Aww it sounds cute until they do with the throwing a cracker at you.)

Marcos smiles and holds out his arm to the macaw.

(I know some birds are messy eaters, but mine usually isn't initiating food fights. He did dump over his water bowl once, though.)

The brightly color bird eyed Marcos for a moment, then stepped up onto his arm.

(I had a friend of mine's bird throw a peanut at me once that I tried to give it.)

Marcos smiles, "Nombre?"
(Name?)

(What kind of bird was it?)

"Awk! Pheonix." The macaw replied.

(Grey parrot I think it's been years since I saw my friend.)

"Pleasure to meet you Pheonix," Marcos smiles.

(An african grey? That makes sense. Those thing are crazy smart, but they cause a lot of trouble.)

"'Ello Pheonix."

(No arguements there it managed to escape once but my friend caught it before it got too far.)

"Hi Pheniox," Nathanial waves his flipper to the bird.

(My parrot has a bad habit attacking people's toes... It's funny and terrifying at the same time.)

Pheonix bobbed his head up and down.

(Sound alot like a friend on mines cat.)

"Would you be our guide," Nathanial asks, "please?"
