TWIS #5

This week in science we started a new unit. The unit we just started is about animals, and their behavior. We saw some videos on animal behavior. All of the animals had different behaviors and different reactions to what ever was happening or was about to happen. The first video we saw was about a rare parrot in New Zealand. It was trying to mate with the person trying to take pictures of it. At first i thought it was attacking the man, but then my teachers informed me that he was trying to mate with him.
Another video we saw was about two cats fighting randomly. I was confused when we were watching the first video because the parrot was just ignoring the man while he was taking pictures of it. Then after that it climbed on top of his back and started to slap him with its wings(as shone in the picture below). It also clawed the back of his neck while it was trying to mate with him. I would really like to know why it did that to him though.
