Recipe
How parrots use it
- At night, or when it's tired, an Idle parrot without a Rest Spot flies to the nearest perch within 16 blocks and roosts on the branch until it's rested.
- During the day, an Idle parrot now and then flies over to a perch and sits on it for a minute or so, just because.
No perch in reach? A tired parrot settles down where it is.

Who uses it
Chickens don't: they roost where they stand.
