Step one: Provide cockatiels, Fuji and Tai, bird pellets that consist of two shapes and four colors—green sphere, red sphere, orange sphere, and yellow "banana."
Step two: Watch cockatiels eat pellets throughout the day, in addition to seed mix in other seed cups.
Step three: Twenty-four hours after giving cockatiels pellets, pull seed cup.
Step four: Realize that cockatiels are engaging in performance art. They are eating all of the four types of pellets. However, they are eating all of the green spheres and then moving the remaining uneaten yellow "bananas" to one side of the dish. (They have been collaborating on their sorting project for two weeks.)
Step five: Repeat.
