Floyd is calling to his flock member when he "honks" after you leave the room. Try telling him that you are leaving and calling to him after you leave. Say something like, "Bye Bye, Floyd". From another room, call to him so he will know where you are. I always tell my Amazon that I'm leaving and answer her when she calls for me. She loves the talking back and forth game. Mirrors are not a good idea since they can overstimulate Floyd and contribute to aggressive behavior in some birds. Amazons live from thirty to fifty years plus depending on diet. He should eat lots of fresh fruits and veggies and not too many sunflower seeds as they are too fat. Amazons will become sunflower junkies and fail to eat a balanced diet. Buy a good parrot book. You can find several on www.amazon.com. You can also read lots of information on the internet about care, training and feeding parrots. And don't forget to spray him with warm water several times a week. Spray the water upwards and let it fall on him in a mist. If he doesn't like it, keep trying. He needs a bath and will come to love it. Never squirt the water in his face.

Floyd is a lucky parrot to have found such a loving second home.
