    @khusky They all are interesting and beautiful birds. The parakeet is not camera shy.
    It becomes a serious problem when people feed birds or any wildlife for their own entertainment or for photos. Here the Canada jay also known as Gray jay can be a very aggressive bird, demanding food and diving on you, flying around your head in a hostile way to get a piece of your sandwich or energy bar. Some people go hiking with seeds in their pockets. People fed them in camp too.

    @CatherineBabault@mastodon.social Yes Catherine people feeding wildlife to get a photo is very wrong. Taking food with them specifically to do so is awful, especially when they complain when the animal reacts aggressively and more often it will be the animal that comes off worse. It's sad.
