My first reaction to this was wondering if these birds are alive, or if they are being smuggled.

Putting aside my jadedness. . .it IS a sweet image.

Awww!

Some birds really like to snuggle!

Haha. Great picture!

They were probably sharing a cigarette in the dark afterward, too!

When I worked at a large pet-goods superstore which must remain nameless for operational security, but whose logo looks very much like PetSmart's, we had a sun conure for sale there that we nicknamed "Sunny" who got to be the unofficial mascot of us exotic-pet-goods-dept drones. Many's the time I would surreptitiously take Sunny out of his cage, in direct violation of store policy, and let him ride around contentedly in my shirt pocket while I bagged fish, helped customers and did assorted chores. He loved it, I loved it, the customers grooved on it, and my boss rolled her eyes and growled about it, but Sunny didn't try to escape, and I'd occasionally take her back to visit her pen for food, water and y'know. Mostly, though, she'd burrow down and snooze or play with my pen and my shirt buttons to get attention.
