Salty has a few nicknames;
Salty Boy
Crazy Bird
Saltzicht (made up German, its not really a word)
Buddy
Hoover or Electrolux (2 popular vacuum cleaners, because he sucks up treats like one)
Since you like German how about saltmister.
The baby Robin we rescued back in the mid 60’s we called.
um I have to do the best I can in spelling German.
smutsiga (dirty) and fogel (bird) said all together (the way Germans love to make words run togethe)
Feeding the bird worms (from fish bait stores) led to nasty poops hence the name,

Geez, I have a few nicknames for Salty... Brainiac, Egghead, Smartypants.
And... I have some great nicknames for Al's sons but since I am a married lady and do not notice or acknowledge handsome pirates, well... nevermind.

For the Rb...
