The happiest bird on the planet! Little parrot can't stop playing with a paper towel it finds on the floor... and invents a range of games to play with it

A bit of kitchen roll on the floor is barely something to panic about but one bouncy bird is silly about the paper towel. A black headed Caique, which is a subspecies of parrot, is seen hopping around like crazy in a clip recorded by its owner.

The vivid bird, which can be located in countries such as Brazil, Columbia, and Venezuela, looks to be having a great time as it picks up the kitchen roll in its beak before wrapping up in it and rolling over.

For many, parrots will eternally be a pirate's pal chomping on a cracker, but in fact, they're smart birds that can be trained to learn many abilities, most distinctly the capacity to speak.

While it's not obvious whether this Caique was trained to have a bounce about on the floor or to grip kitchen roll - it's difficult not be surprised by its ideally coordinated roll.

Caiques are assumed to be smart, affectionate and appreciate socializing with other parrots. They're also so playful with a love of toys.

The parrot also has a tropical taste and savor mango, sweet oranges, guavas and passion fruits.

Bird lovers considering getting a Caique shouldn't bother too much about the cost of their upkeep, the money saved on buying kitchen roll to keep their parrots happy could always go towards a fruit salad.
