I wish flocks of gorgeous parrots would fly to my hand like this:

3. I visited a park with a vast aviary that contained many dozens of lorikeets and other birds

I was wearing a bright red shirt and was immediately swarmed by birds upon entering the enclosure. A loud woman was in there already, trying in vain to interact with any of the birds. Continuing to prattle, she walked my way, complaining that I didn’t need all those birds all to myself. She actually reached out to snatch a lorikeet off my shoulder. The bird didn’t appreciate being grabbed rudely, however, and bit her thumb without hesitation. She let out a blood-curdling scream and promptly ceased her grabby behavior. It didn’t stop her from running her mouth about me hogging all the birds, however.
