    Do you think he might like the warmth? Parrot feet don’t have the feather insulation owl feet have, and I believe their circulation actually restricts to barely keep feet above freezing and save most warmth for their torso. Sounds uncomfortable.

      It could be. Some crows and ravens and keas will just walk in snow like it’s dirt. I’ve seen chickens just going about normally in the snow too, but most parrots other than the kea probably can’t handle it.
