The animal keeper laughed and said, "Yes, parrots do eat pumpkins, but this isn't just for eating, you know. Take a closer look!"
"Huh?"
Hearing this, the children leaned closer to the railing, stood on tiptoe, and observed more intently.
Wang Haoran saw that the parrot seemed to pull a black object out of the pumpkin?
It looked like a seed!
Clutching it in its beak, the parrot struggled to crack it open for a while and finally got to the seed inside. After eating, it chirped twice and then hopped back onto the pumpkin, pulling out another seed, seeming quite happy.
On the food stand's platform, in addition to the pumpkin and water, there were about a dozen scattered seed shells, not very noticeable; he hadn't paid attention to them earlier.
"There are seeds hidden inside the pumpkin, and the parrots are eating the seeds!" Wang Haoran exclaimed with delight.
"Really!"
"Parrots can even shell seeds!"
The other children also discovered the secret.
