The quiet companion — compact, devoted, condo-friendly.
Senegal parrots are the sleeper hit of the parrot world: small, strikingly marked, notably quiet, and devoted to their person. They're one of the best 'real parrot' choices for apartment dwellers in Toronto. Senegals tend to pick a favourite human, so households should be ready to share attention deliberately so the bird stays social with everyone.

Very — they're little acrobats that love hanging upside down, wrestling with toys, and learning tricks. They just do it all at a civilized volume.
