Lora





The Mamallacta family has a parrot they call Lora (the feminine form of Loro, which is simply parrot in Spanish). Strangely, Lora hates women, but loves men. From the moment she saw me, she literally followed me around the grounds. She climbed on my shoulder at every opportunity and squawked at Rhonda if she got too close. The family called her "jealous" and Rhonda called her my new "girlfriend."
