Performing Parrots Flock to Bayfair Center July 21

Bayfair Center will host a special monthly free family event July 21 at 11:30 a.m. in its Center Court area inside the mall.

As part of its Just KIDding Around Club the center will welcome The Happy Birds Performing Parrot Show.

These lively birds will strut their stuff singing songs, performing tricks and even posing for photos with youngsters. Some even do animal impersonations, talk to the audience and ride high wire bikes.

You can see a video gallery of some of their past performances here and photos of them here.

The birds' owners, Ed and Julie Cardoza, have been performing with them since 1989 and have appeared on television and stage before thousands.
