Our visit with Swooper the parakeet

Ally brought the famous Swooper Cohen in for a visit! Once again he was a big hit! Swooper came to Summer Fun last summer and stopped by for a visit this past Spring. He has such a busy schedule!

The children really enjoyed observing and listening to Swooper chirp and sing. Ally talked a bit about life with Swooper at her home. Swooper's favorite foods are bagels, spaghetti (with the sauce on the side please), corn on the cob, lettuce, and rice krispies. He likes to listen to stories and loves to dance and sing to music. Swooper really looks forward to his nightly bath or shower with his brother Jake. He enjoys hanging out with his stuffed animals, but his all time favorite is the green and speckled webkinz frog!

The following is a list of the amazing questions the children asked Ally about Swooper the parakeet:

• Why does he have different colors?
• Do you let him eat at night?
• Where does he sleep?
• Is he cleaning himself?
• Why does he go to the top of the cage?
• Can he play outside?
• When he gets scared does he fall over?
• Where is his poop?

I am willing to bet the next time Swooper comes to camp we will have more exciting and interesting questions for Ally about Swooper!
