Accountant shares office space with dozens of birds

It's hard to tell if this is an accounting firm full of birds or a parrot shop with a pet accountant.

Lisa Brandmeier of Kent is all business.

"We do corporate taxes, payroll, bookkeeping, quarterlies," Brandmeier said.

The accountant knows taxes inside and out, from Schedule A to 1040 EZ. But her office is for the birds.

"It gets annoying," she said. "It gets loud."

Lisa's accounting business is located in the middle of a parrot supply and boarding facility called Inca's Secret.

"I really was only going to just sell a few toys. It wasn't really intended to get this big," Brandmeier said.

The side business grew - and so did the noise - as Lisa began rescuing and boarding dozens of parrots in her building. Now, it's hard to tell if this is an accounting firm full of birds or a parrot shop with a pet accountant.

Lisa wouldn't have it any other way.

"There's nothing better than having a parrot as a companion," Brandmeier said.
