I'm a little scared of birds too, they have big scary beaks. WHen I was little my dad had a red headed amazon parrot that HATED everyone but him. She would bite everyone except for my dad who she loved. I also got attacked by a Turkey that my grandparents owned. So with those two incidents I've been scared of birds. Occasionally I meet a bird that I like, when I worked at Petco I fell in love with an african grey named Digger, I would hold him but sometimes I would still be a little scared.
