African Grey Parrot (Psittacus erithacus)<br />
Diva was a surprise birthday gift to my cousin from his sons. Diva is adorable! She takes time to 'know' you but once she is comfortable, she is fine. When you say 'Kissy kissy' she'll put her head down so you can pet her.<br />

on August 2, 2008KentuckyLightchasers - The old ones are mostly used to ferry local people. The new river boats are used for tourists for rides down the river or dinner at nights.
I have a few pictures of a dinner on one of the boats:
