Tori - A Cape (poicephalus fusicollis fusicollis) Parrot
(Note: The current 3 Cape parrot subspecies are in the process of being reclassified into two separate species. Tori is commonly known in the USA as a Cape Parrot (poicephalus robustus fusicollis), but is officially known as a Brown-necked Parrot (poicephalus fusicollis fusicollis.)
Tori is a happy, friendly, silly, playful parrot. His beak is shaped so he looks like he is always smiling, but he really means the smile! (You can click the image above to see a full page portrait of Tori.)
Tori's breeder is Scott Lewis of Old World Aviaries. Tori was hatched in November 1998.
For more information on Cape parrots, see Craig Harris' Cape parrot pages.

Tori loves having his head skritched and gives kisses when asked "Give me a kiss?"
Tori's head is not "just grey." Each feather is tinged with another color, such as red-brown or green.
