As the official avian attendant, I am typically in charge of grooming.
This includes neck feather scratching, head and neck massage and of course the obligatory post-session feather pick-up.
But occasionally unimportant routine tasks like working to earn rent money prevent me from fulfilling my contractual obligations in a timely fashion.
At that point my sole repeat client may choose to take matters into his own hands.

lol! My own Pearl did this too…always made me laugh. ‘if you can scratch your own head, why do you need me?’ I’d ask.
Haha – such a great question, Sandy! (I suspect the answer is “because I am so cute I can make you do it for me”… ;-))
