African grey parrots play with their new pPod (1/3)

Karma, my African Grey parrot, plays with the new pPod that I just made for her and Tiger. Within ten minutes, Karma was able to trigger the switches to change the songs, although she was doing this by accident. Tiger, the timid one, remained a bit away from the new and therefore dangerous pPod. Notice how Karma seems more interested in destroying the speakers (protected by a metal grid) than she is in playing with the switches! For more information on the pPod, go to www.jonbondy.com/pPod.htm.

After I uploaded this video, YouTube informed me (correctly) that there was audio on the video that was a copyrighted tune. The purpose of the pPod is, of course, to play music, and YouTube correctly identified the music that was being played. So, the video has been muted by YouTube. Which makes watching it much less interesting, because you cannot tell that the parrots are in fact changing the songs. You cannot even tell that songs are being played.

Well. Such is life, I suppose. I'm not sure how to remedy this situation.
