A couple of Cheerios usually hide with tasty seeds and other snackable items in the bottom of Peanut's nest. Sometimes he ignores them, sometimes he tastes them, sometimes he eats a bite or two. He loves oat groats, and I'm sure he can tell that Cheerios are made of oats, but he doesn't really love Cheerios. Unless, of course, he's presented with an entire, big bowl of them. Then he's right there, checking them all out, taking a bite or two, and flicking them around. To tell the truth, I think the cereal may be just a little too big for him to bite into. We'll have to mention that to the friendly people at General Mills, and see if they can make a parrotlet-sized version. While we're at it, maybe they'll hire Peanut as a spokesbird. I'd buy a box from this bird, wouldn't you? You can click on the small photos for bigger versions.
