Meet the couple who keep giant parrots as pets - which they have to take for daily walks. Nimal Fernando and Claire Atallah, both 34, regularly exercise macaws Mikey and Mia around their village.
The couple, who moved from Wimbledon, south London to Harlington a year and a half ago, took the large birds - which are controversial pets - into their home in 2016. They say they had no idea how much work the Mikey, eight, and Mia, five, would take.
The parrots create huge amounts of mess and have cost Nimal and Claire deposits due to the damage caused. But they have no regrets - as they love seeing the birds soar.
