オウム at 和歌山城･動物園 A parrot at Wakayama Castle zoo

和歌山城･動物園のオウムが水を飲んでいるところです。これは鳥共通の動作ですが、水を飲むときは嘴で少量の水をすくい、その後、嘴を上にして水を喉に流します。その動作は非常に可愛いです。

He is a parrot at Wakayama Castle zoo, who is drinking water. I think this is an universal movement of birds in the world that when drinking water, first he scoops small amount of water with his bills and then raise them in order to let the water get down through his throat. This movement makes me feel that he is cute.
