Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill
(Judy Schryer)
The "Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill" is a very entertaining movie that is attracting
people of all ages. It is the true story of the relationship of Marc Bittner with a
flock of displaced Cherry-headed Conure parrots. The photography is excellent and the
scenery beautiful. Every scene of the parrots ia a birders' dream. The movie is about
Mark's discovery of the parrots and how it becomes the major focus of his life at that time.
Issues are somewhat romanticized with the conclusion having a few rough edges. All in all
it is a beautifully made movie about meeting the needs of a sensitive man and his interaction
with a flock of parrots in San Francisco.
