While sipping coffee, we speak with a chef with a flat tire about seasonal produce, and Judy Irving about her movie, "The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill"…
The beloved 2003 documentary, THE WILD PARROTS OF TELEGRAPH HILL, has been given a 4K restoration for a new release is set in San Francisco, there are at least two flocks of largely wild parrots who flock around the city. This film focuses on the flock of cherry-headed conures (and a lonely blue-headed one named Connor) who flock around the Telegraph Hill region of the city and their closest human companion, Mark Bittner. Through his own words, we learn of his life as a frustrated, homeless musician and how he came to live in the area where he decided to explore the nature around him. That lead him to discovering the parrot flock and the individual personalities of it. In a cinematic portrait, we are introduced to his colorful companions and the relationship they share as well as the realities of urban wild life that would change Bittner's life forever. Director / Producer / Writer / Editor / Cinematographer Judy Irving's profoundly moving story of human interaction with nature is made personal and universal by Mark Bittner boundless love for Sophie, & Picasso, Mingus, Olive & Pushkin, Tupelo and Connor. THE WILD PARROTS OF TELEGRAPH HILL is one the best documentaries of the last 20 years. For more go to: pelicanmedia.org/wild-parrots

Flocks of Cherry-headed Conures, a species native to South America, are now found throughout San Francisco. While a local legend claims that a pet shop owner introduced them by burning the shop down, it's more likely that that a few of these loud-mouths exasperated their owners until they “accidentally” left a window open. Sadly, wild Cherry-headed Conures are falling ill from rodent poison. A nonprofit, Mickaboo, adopts out healed rescues. Learn more at BirdNote.org.

While living on Telegraph Hill in San Francisco, Mark discovered a flock of wild parrots living outside his apartment, and developed a remarkable relationship with the birds. He became one of San Francisco's famed neighborhood characters, known as "Parrot Man." In this episode, we speak about the heartwarming story of his friendship with the birds as told in the book The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill, and the award winning documentary of the same name. We explore how his unique experience gave him a new appreciation for the animal kingdom, and broadened his understanding of consciousness. Years ago, when I saw the movie, The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill, I knew there was something special about Mark. His humility, sincerity, and thoughtfulness are qualities that seem rare to find these days.

Ho Ho Ho. In this special edition Mark and Brendan spread some Christmas cheer. Each of us review items for use over the holiday period - some veterinary based and some not. In news we talk about the world's heaviest flying bird and a fossil named after Darth Vader. Looking for some new equipment to spice up your practice? Then consider the great fold-away and portable Buster ICU enclosure, which will pay for itself in no time. Or keep your patients toasty with the aptly named HotDog pet warming system. The Rycom non-contact clinical thermometer is a useful temperature measurement gadget that Mark uses - 5.9/10. Suprelorin (deslorelin) implants are reviewed by Mark, as well as bird foraging video. Tired of vet life and need something to take your mind off work? Look no further than the intriguing documentary about Vivian Maier. It's a great true mystery documentary about a street photographer and excellent viewing even for those with little interest in photography, as it is also about the human condition and is very poignant. 9.2 out of 10 From Brendan. A novel to read over the Christmas break is Artemis. It is a science fiction novel set on the moon by the author of The Martian, which was made into a film starring Matt Damon. Artemis is the story of Jazz, a small time smuggler on the moon and her adventures. A fun, fast paced, easy to read novel perfect for the post Christmas period, recommended by Brendan. Or consider the book The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill, a thought provoking read for the holiday period. A non-fiction text to consider is the Avian Anatomy, Textbook and colour atlas. This second edition text is a high quality production For some Christmas cheer consider a beer from the Grand Ridge Brewery, located in Mirboo North, east of Melbourne, Australia in the Gippsland region. Links: Hot Dog Veterinary Patient warming system Kruuse Buster ICU enclosure: A PDF detailing the enclosure can be found here; It can be purchased in Australia from various suppliers including Sound Veterinary Supplies Foraging for birds Suprelorin (deslorelin) implants information for ferrets here The Finding Vivian Maier movie is listed on IMDB.
