'''Parry''' is an [[Animal Friend]] who only appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' He is a small yellow bird with a blue head and a white neck-stripe; his blue wing-feathers are tipped with red, and he has two long, curved tail feathers, giving him a similar appearance to certain {{wp|bird-of-paradise|birds-of-paradise}}, such as the {{wp|red bird-of-paradise}}. Parry's name is a shortened form of the word "parallel" ("to be an equal distance apart"), and likely also plays off "paradise." | '''Parry''' is an [[Animal Friends|Animal Friend]] who only appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' He is a small yellow bird with a blue head and a white neck-stripe; his blue wing-feathers are tipped with red, and he has two long, curved tail feathers, giving him a similar appearance to certain {{wp|bird-of-paradise|birds-of-paradise}}, such as the {{wp|red bird-of-paradise}}.

Similar to [[ | Similar to [[Squawks]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''{{'}}s [[Torchlight Trouble]], Parry is an unmountable Animal Friend in ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble''. Parry's [[animal crate]] is smaller than the other Animal Friends, given his short size. Parry is the only Animal Friend of the game to not have his own [[Animal Barrel]]. Parry flies above [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] and mimics their movements, hence his name. | ||

In this way, the Kongs can use him to grab out-of-reach items, typically from mimicking their jump movement. Parry is the most vulnerable Animal Friend because he can be defeated by almost every enemy he gets in contact with. Parry cannot defeat any enemy except for [[Booty Bird]]s, which Parry can defeat by moving into them. | ||
The Kongs usually receive a large reward if they successfully navigate Parry past his [[No Animal Sign]], such as a [[Blue Balloon]] or even an accessible [[Bonus Barrel]]. | The Kongs usually receive a large reward if they successfully navigate Parry past his [[No Animal Sign]], such as a [[Blue Balloon]] or even an accessible [[Bonus Barrel]]. | ||
