How does your birdie greet you in the morning?

This is one of my favorite moments of the day. When Ollie would see me he would often stretch and purr. Juliette runs over and give kisses.

Awwwwwwww that's so sweet. And so civilized!! Lovejoy by contrast starts dinging his bells a good 10 minutes before I even get out of bed at 5AM to signal to his indentured servant (i.e. me) to "Get out here and bring me my breakfast!!" So rude, but I don't mind

Salty gets a good morning head scritch, sometimes short, sometimes long. And I get a squeak or 2. He is very mellow in the AM. No 'greet the sunrise' stuff, thank God.

They sound so polite, mine like to screech the second I move in bed until breakfast, well at least they wait until I wake up and it keeps me motivated to get their breakfast quickly haha.

My budgies start to chirp quietly as soon as the room starts getting lighter. One at a time I hear soft chirps. Then Donzi and Jimmy Buffettbird start croaking like bullfrogs. Not loudly but loud enough to hear across the room. The 8 Porch Birds that live in a flight cage on the adjacent enclosed porch are the first to see the sunrise and the first to start their day.
Depending on what time the sun rises, I start my 30 minute long budgie feeding routine as soon as they start to stir. When the feeding is finished I open their doors and "release the hounds". 12 of my budgies fly free all day and they're eager to stretch their wings.

Nameliss starts the day saying softly drawling out...yes master. It's repeated until it's obvious I am awake. The noise starts as she rushes me to get her chop. I get kisses. She dives in and barely comes up for air. Her morning chop time is her favorite thing. This morning's pic.

Button starts chirping the second he hears any movement in the morning. When I open the door to the bird room, he usually greets me with a kissing sound & more chirping. Ava is much quieter in the morning than her little brother. She simply puts her wings straight up in the air to say hello when I go in the room to open the blackout blinds. However, once I go to the kitchen to prepare their breakfast, the flock calling begins and continues until the birdies have their chop.

My husband usually wakes them up. When I come downstairs I’m greeted by a loud chorus of “cheep” (Ona) and “bow!” (Yuri)

 

[Corkscr.ew]

Mine would usually start jumping at the cage door and demanding to be let out, but if it was very early then they’d just stare grumpily at me, LOL.

Pebbles just sits and growls, or bangs on the cage walls, but if she is feeling excited, she's super sweet!

And then she wipes her beak on her human! I love watching them enjoy their chop. Mine gather round the chop dish on top of the largest cage for breakfast. They really like the scrambled egg.

Y’all have such sweet birds! JJ is soooo grumpy in the mornings; I uncover him and open his cage door but I can’t touch him for about half an hour or he will totally bite me, lol! After the proper amount of time, then he’s ready for his morning head scratches.

The budgies are nicer. They usually just shuffle around quietly until I get up. The budgie cage faces my bed and when I had Cooper he used to climb down to the lowest perch where he could see under the blanket and stare at me until I woke up .

I frequently lie on my bed and read, play with my phone, etc. Joey's cage is in the bedroom next to the bed. Yesterday I dozed off while she was out and when my husband got home and walked in Joey was sitting on my chest, quietly watching me sleep. She's such a sweet budgie!
