The place I work has two large perches that they put the birds on during the day for exercise, the birds usually ignore each other...usually. There was a tiny U2 on one perch, and a gigantic GW macaw on the other, so like any sane living being would do, the U2 jumped over onto the GWs perch while fluffing up completely and threatening the GW. This was a pretty calm GW, she didn't do anything to the insane 'too. At least until she did it AGAIN at which point the GW growled at the U2 and scaring her off for good. This just goes to show how absolutely crazy some 'toos actually are.

RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
Cockatoos can be very gregarious and at times aggressive, but they usually know their limits when encroaching on another parrot's territory! GWs are typically the more mellow members of the macaw family!

She didn't get that memo lol. This is the most spoiled, full of herself U2 ever. In fact I asked her if she was a diva and she actually said "yeah". No blood shed, glad it was a GW and not an amazon or the store B&G AKA mr grumpypants
