This story is very odd since as a former owner of a parrot myself in all of the years that my relatives and myself owned a parrot, the parrot that I used to own never went outside of my relatives home to get some exercise by going outdoors. A macaw parrot that calls Roger Williams Park Zoo in Providence Rhode Island who in the company of two other macaw parrots went outside of the zoo on Wednesday to get some exercise. What happened next is very odd since the three macaw parrots were picked up by high winds which sent the macaw parrots flying away from the zoo area to another area of the city about four or five miles away. Vicki Scharfberg who is a spokesperson for the zoo reported the good news was that one of the parrots was seen on a power line outside of the home of Cranston resident Julia Bedard's home. Julia contacted the zoo officials to pick up the parrot who goes by the name Rainier and take the parrot back home to the zoo. The zoo officials were able to locate the other two missing parrots in the same area shortly after and return all of the parrots back to the zoo safe and sound. Julia says that the parrots will continue to get their exercise outside of the zoo the next day since parrots will not make any efforts to escape. Link is upi.com/7661684428953 via @upi
