I think Merlin may be showing some mating behavior to Pete today. She has been backing up against the cage and lifting her tail very high. She stays in that position for rather long periods of time. Is that what she is doing?
It is only the last couple of months I have had birds of the opposite sex. And we know Pete is very interested in Merlin, and now I think Merlin is getting ideas as well!
I may have to be careful with these two as far as being able to have them out together. Different species or not, they are both mature parrots and up in years. Their chances of mating are becoming slim for them, and they may very well decide to try to be mates.
If anyone can advise, I'd be appreciative. Kind of a new situation for me, not just to have opposite gender birds, but birds of different species (and continents!) that may want to get together.
