Seeing an old lady looking after a load of goldfish with a parrot on her shoulder is definitely not an everyday sight. Or at least it’s not if you don’t live anywhere near an old lady who sells fish and has a parrot.
But add to that the rather forlorn appearance of said pet, along with it looking about the same age as its owner, and the pair are even more unusual.
And yet seeing the two of them so quiet and content in each other’s company was arguably even more striking — not to mention touching.
