My brother and I were playing backgammon. Silver was hanging out on my shoulder. Then, he was on the table trying to get on the backgammon board.
He stole one of my pieces and dropped it on the floor, looking very pleased with himself.
Then, he was picking up the dice and trying to throw them on the floor. I tried giving him the "doubling cube" to play with since we weren't using it. He wasn't having it, though. He definitely wanted the same dice we were using. It was very cute.
Fortunately, I was able to distract him by taking him out to the living room to visit with Emma.
I was kind of surprised that he was able to pick up the dice. I thought they would be a little big for his beak.

Silver got you to stop playing your game and play his game instead lol. It's called avian fetch. It's the opposite of dog fetch, because the bird throws things for the human to retrieve.

Avian fetch lol... I suspect that's Bubu's game when he steals things... He also loves when I run after him after he's got something he stole!
