As I was working around in the kitchen each morning but it wasn't time to uncover Shiloh I could hear her stirring around. She never screamed to be let out of her cage until I was ready to uncover her. The only exception was in the spring when it got brighter earlier. She always acted as if were high noon even though I got her up at the same time. All of my birds had the same routine and each one of them were quiet until I uncovered them and got them ready for their day. I always felt bad that I was away all day and Shiloh didn't have any company but she was actually quite content each night when I got home from work. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect, sweeter bird.
