- Presumed innocent -

Is this the expression of an innocent creature?

 

Last December, on my way to my hometown, I stayed at a rural hotel (as mentioned in recently posted photos).

Upon reaching the last available chalet, to everyone's surprise, there was no electricity to run the TV, air conditioning, refrigerator or all the available lamps and sockets.

 

A few minutes later when the electrician arrived and checked the electrical grid on the roof, he came across this creature that had gnawed about one meter of a tangle of seven eletric wires.

 

Known as "Maritaca" / Psittacara leucophthalmus is an extremely noisy parrot species that seems to have an identity conflict, as it behaves like one of the most efficient rodents, making it a nightmare for rural producers.

It's common also in urban environment where, in addition to waking everyone up just after sunrise (always flying in pairs or groups chatting loudly and happily), in the absence of anything else to do, they gnaw wood roofs, electrical wires and whatever else they find on the way.

 

So I ask again: is this the expression of an innocent creature? Or guilty but with no regrets?
