1.Is this "hitch rides on" a joke for birds as we give others a free ride? Or is it just giving them a ride?
2. What does this "perch" mean? A high position?
mo2-24)Lots of people like to let their companion birds hitch rides on their shoulders. It keeps a beloved companion close by without hindering the hands, and it looks pretty cool too. Unfortunately, however, it’s not a good idea. As far as birds are concerned,height makes might. In the jungle, the bird with the highest seat rules. When you put your bird on your shoulder, you’re putting it above your eye level. In the bird’s view of things, you’ve given it the dominant position. You wouldn’t want your two-year-old child to think he or she rules the perch, and you don’t want your pet parrot to think so either, for the same reason. In the interests of a long and harmonious companionship, you need your bird to respect you as the authority figure in the relationship.
