I brought Paulie bird into the kitchen one morning and he started freaking out and dancing every time I got close to the refrigerator so I finally let him up there. I think the basket was his main focus as maybe a nest, I don't know. I know birds like high places but a refrigerator? Hmmm silly burd. He didn't want to come down either when I tried to get him off. Curious bird was curious thank goodness its doesn't kill him like it does for cats hehehe
