Ray is a bird man. He has several large parrots in his home. There is a white cockatoo, an Amazon green parrot, a macaw (she’s red) named Leia, and George is also a macaw (he’s green and yellow). They can all talk, but have limited vocabularies. George does something unique, though; the parrot is trained to signal when he needs to potty. @rayraychas #george raising his foot to let me know he has to go potty, then raising it higher when I don’t notice right away. #petsoftiktok #birdsoftiktok #macaw #prettybird #poop ♬ I Gotta Poop – Bigedude We aren’t sure how long it took to potty train the parrot, but owner Ray said it took a while. Explaining the process to a fan, Ray said, “I wouldn’t take him off of his playstand until he went potty. I would say “good potty” and give him a treat. I would take him off, let him play for like 10 minutes then put him back on his stand and tell him to go potty again. Rinse and repeat!” George has a way to signal when he needs to potty: he raises a leg to get Ray’s attention. Image from TikTok. Ray has a house full of pets. In addition to the birds, he has a cat, a husky, a fluffy smaller dog, and a medium-sized black dog. He also feeds a possum that hangs out in his yard. All the inside animals get along, and Ray frequently features them together in videos. Ray interacts with each of his pets throughout the day. They have unique personalities, different vocabularies, and abilities. He works with each animal to enrich their lives and enhance their quality of life. While not completely rotten, these critters share a bond with Ray, and he does spoil them. The birds have a life expectancy that can exceed 80 years as pets. Parrots are a lifelong commitment that requires dedicated ownership. Please share. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.

A single firefly alone holds so much beauty. I want you to imagine, then, how much more beauty there must be in a whole group of fireflies. Luckily, you don’t have to rely solely on your imagination. Toward the end of May and start of June, Elkmont within the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is home to what are called synchronous fireflies. These special creatures are known to synchronize their flashing lights. This magical show of lights is so amazing, the park had to limit who all can visit. To be one of these lucky people, you have to enter a lottery. There are eight viewing days to choose from each year. In 2025, it’s said that 40,000 people entered. A woman named Emily was one of only 900 accepted. Catch a glimpse at her group’s experience in the video below! @emolyy_ Absolutely mesmerizing experience #firefly #greatsmokymountains #synchronousfireflies #fireflies #travel #nationalpark #greatsmokymountainsnationalpark #elkmont ♬ Fireflies – Owl City “I wish I could give every single firefly a little kiss on the forehead for being perfect,” someone sweetly admits in the comments, another person adding, “I am going to keep applying for this lottery. One day it will happen. So cool that you got to go!” Lucky Viewers of the Synchronous Fireflies at the Great Smoky Mountains National Park Share a Glimpse at This Spectacular Light Show View this post on Instagram A post shared by Radim Schreiber (@radimphoto) As frustrating as this lottery system might sound, it’s implemented for a very good reason. Viewing these synchronous fireflies became so popular, these special insects were being negatively effected. By lowering how many people can visit at once, the heightened risks that come with human visitors have lowered dramatically. Everyone wins! If you do get the chance to witness these magical creatures, make sure to follow firefly viewing etiquette, as shared by the National Park Service. While lowering the number of visitors is vital, it’s still important for those of us who are chosen to be kind, considerate guests, too! You can find the source of this story’s featured image here!
