Turquoise-kun’s cute play in the water Captivated by people all over the world
Appearing in the video is “Turquoise,” a red-eared parakeet boy wrapped in gorgeous black and mint green feathers. The striped parakeet is a medium-sized parakeet that inhabits the Andes Mountains and the Santa Marta Mountains of South America, and has beautiful ripple-like finely patterned wings and a stout body.
In general, many parrots like to play in the water, but Turquoise also loves it. They are happily playing with water in a white plate filled with water.
But Turquoise-kun’s appearance is just perfect for words such as “enjoyment” and “enjoyment”. A novel style where you lie down on your back over and over again, whether it feels so good. When the owner scoops up some water and sprinkles it over it, it spreads its wings while lying down, as if to say, “More and more!”
Turquoise-kun is in a relaxing mode, so much so that you can almost hear the voice of your heart saying, “Ah, the best!” The belly, which you can glimpse every time you lie down, is covered in fluffy feathers and looks very soft.
When Turquoise-kun’s appearance of playing in the water was posted on Twitter, a whopping 376,000 “likes” were collected, and the number of views of the video exceeded 5.5 million.
The replies were “What is this cute creature”, “Soothing”, “I can watch it for the rest of my life”, “Cool”, “Moe…”, “I’m so happy that I’m too cute”, “Super cute”, ” The cuteness is overflowing…”, and other voices were filled with the cuteness of Turquoise-kun. Similar responses were received from countries around the world.
Turquoise’s novel water play has become a big hit, but according to the owner, it’s actually a style that he came up with after trial and error.
“Basically, they bathe once a week. They are always turned upside down in a plate like this. They seem to enjoy having their owners pour water on them. It’s become like this at home.”
