- Synopsis
- Seventeen years ago, when she adopted a neglected, orphaned thirty-year-old parrot named Tiko, the internationally renowned ornithologist Joanna Burger entered one of the most complex relationship of her life. Sullen and hostile when he entered Dr. Burger's home, Tiko gradually warmed up, courting her during the mating season, nursing her vigilantly through a bout of Lyme disease, and for a while even fighting her husband for her attentions. In time, theirs was a relationship of deep mutual trust.
