As others have commented, this is a fascinating documentary about non-indigenous parrots which have escaped into the wild and are taken under the wing of an apparent misfit. The arc in the story line is how Mark comes to the zen realization that all of life is interconnected. How many ¨wild¨ portions of our existence do we encounter that will fill our lives with love and wonder if we care to open ourselves to them¿ Not all who wander are lost, as the adage goes. And although Mark does intrude somewhat on the birds'wildness by feeding and caring for them, he essentially feels it is best to just leave them alone. He accepts them for what they are. Loved the surprise at the end, which underlines the central message. Whatever faults a critical eye may see in the film-making technique are more than overcome by Irving's sensitive approach.
