[Answer] 7. In the spring and summer, my parrot always takes over one of my cabinets, shoving everything out and spending long hours sitting in it. I don't mind that. But why does she try to chase me away whenever I walk by?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "7. In the spring and summer, my parrot always takes over one of my cabinets, shoving everything out and spending long hours sitting in it. I don't mind that. But why does she try to chase me away whenever I walk by?"

...1. You need to remodel the kitchen 2. It's her new favorite toy 3. She thinks of it as her nest site 4. You didn't need the cabinet anyway In the spring, female parrots can become hormonal. Longer days mean it's the breeding season, and so they should act accordingly-- by trying to find a mate and a nest site. Any dark and semi-enclosed area can apply. It's not a good idea to let them take possession of their new "nest." They can be very territorial, and your parrot's attempts to chase you away could escalate into severe bites. Also, the darkness stimulates egg-laying, a health risk you probably don't want your parrot to take unless you want her to breed.

[Answer] 2. It's June, and my chipmunk is happily running around my yard as usual, making little "chip chip" sounds and looking for food. I didn't see him all winter, though. Why?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "2. It's June, and my chipmunk is happily running around my yard as usual, making little "chip chip" sounds and looking for food. I didn't see him all winter, though. Why?"

...1. Chipmunks go into an inactive state called torpor 2. Chipmunks migrate south for the winter 3. Chipmunks turn white and blend in with the snow 4. I was too busy drinking eggnog and watching TV During the winter, chipmunks go into an inactive state called torpor. It isn't true hibernation, because they wake up frequently and eat the food they have stored in their burrows, and may even venture outside if the weather gets warm enough. This was a cold winter and a very cool spring, so I didn't catch a glimpse of my chipmunk until May. Unlike many animals, chipmunks don't store fat to help them make it through the winter. Torpor is very stressful to the chipmunk; many do not survive the demands it puts on their tiny bodies. In addition, despite their best efforts, some chipmunks are unable to store enough food to enable them to survive a very long, hard winter, My chipmunk is fortunate in that he gets about ten pounds of unsalted peanuts from me each year, so he isn't likely to go hungry. Chipmunks may spend up to half their lives in a state of torpor.

[Answer] 5. "You pinned my violets to your furs". The furs might have been a cape made from a crepuscular rodent native to the Andes Mountains in South America. Which animal, grey-furred in the wild, could this be?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "5. "You pinned my violets to your furs". The furs might have been a cape made from a crepuscular rodent native to the Andes Mountains in South America. Which animal, grey-furred in the wild, could this be?"

...1. fox 2. mountain lion 3. wolf 4. chinchilla Chinchilla fur is popular in the fur trade because it is very soft due to its density - there are usually over 50 hairs in each hair follicle. While only grey fur is seen in the wild, they have been bred in captivity to produce a variety of colors - white, beige, ebony and more. Because the color is typically very even, it is ideal for small garments, although larger garments can be made. Since the animals are fairly small, a full-length coat made from chinchilla could require the sacrifice of 150 animals. By the end of the 19th century, they had been hunted nearly to extinction because of the popularity of their fur. Two species did survive, and hunting is now illegal, but illegal hunting continues to put pressure on their survival.

Bright students are often hindered by sitting in classes with average students. Unhindered schoolwork can certainly harm one's ability to be creative or "think outside the box." Notice he said nothing bad about school. It simply cannot serve as the only source for a rounded education.
