I've been mourning my poor Cheddar but decided to get some new happy videos with my tiels. Please comment on any of the behavior, it's strange. He's obsessed with my or anyones feet, he's actually currently on them dancing around and scraping my skin with his beak. Crazy bird lol.

I started recording cause Jazz and Chessie don't seem to like each others company but he walked right up and started singing to her so things must be better! I finally got him on camera saying "gimme kiss"! He only pulls that one out when nobody else is around. Now I have proof! Can you hear it? At the very last few seconds of the video. What does it sound like to you?

Lastly, my female pearl tiel has never made this noise around me and her behavior was a little weird for a couple minutes. Then she stopped. I need advice about it!

Oh boy, hanging out with the flock sure does help after Cheddar passed. Sometimes Jazz goes in her cage and looks for her. I'd swear he's calling for her, but maybe he's just being extra needy and calling to me. But we all had fun tonight :)

Yes methinks your beautiful girlie may have a hankering for some male company to, you know, read her some poetry, or bring her a piña colada, soft music, candlelight, la romanza.... something like that anyway...

Nice bit of lighthearted fun there YUM, just what the doctor ordered! Cockatiels are the craziest people:)

I think your teils know you are mourning Cheddar and they are just trying to comfort you Yum..Honestly, from my experience with Smokey passing a few years back, Amy was EXTRA lovey with me for some time .
