Plant MONSTER. posted:Mr. Budge can officially find me in other rooms of the house I love that slow motion. It hangs in the air while it scans inside the room for you so it could continue on it's original path if you were not there. Indoor flying that birds learn is so interesting because they are so much more nimble.

Sometimes, since my bedroom is pretty dark, he doesn't quite see me despite hearing me so he'll fly in, do a circle, and fly back out while either screaming or calling out. Although I don't think it's so much to see ME as it is to see my tablet. He has to be on top of anything I'm using: tablet, phone, books, pencils, expensive alcohol based markers (which I now use in my room with the door shut for his safety). Oh god, plates and bowls. "Bird no, I've watched you poo on my arm and then you accidentally stepped in the poo and refused to accept my help removing the poo and instead scurried onto the new uphosltery, which is fine, material possessions are not my priority, and track the poo bits everywhere, do not land on my bowl please oh okay fine just start drinking my soup... Sure stick your whole head right in there. Have at it."

I'm going to make a special hairdresser's/barber where you go to get your scalp groomed by a bird and massaged by little birdy feet. It will be the most relaxing experience ever. We will still have to employ humans to wash your hair afterwards because the birds will poop in your hair.

I think Sera finally worked out that freckles are just what I look like. He rarely tries to pick them off, now.

One of my many worries stopping me from trying out bird ownership is the fact I have lots of skin tags, and given the stories in here about things like freckles and whatnot I worry I'd be dead from blood loss inside a week if I get a particularly caring bird who wants to keep me clean. I guess I'll just keep vicariously living through ya'll.

Sera just asked me for a shower. In true cockatiel fashion, he did this by flying into the bathroom and yelling until I came in and asked him, "what, did you want a shower?" He gave me a happy chirp. I picked him up and said, "Okay, let's go get Ozzy," because Ozzy was flipping out about not being able to see either of us and has not yet dared the danger of flying down the hallway, so as far as he was concerned, he was just alone, and we were gone forever, and he was gonna die. Asked Ozzy if he wanted a shower, he thought about it, and agreed to step up on my hand (Sera gave him an encouraging chirp while he was obviously deciding whether or not he did want a shower, and whether that was worth the horror of being picked up, which he is... not always comfortable with). We all had a shower. The boys are having some post-bath millet, and Ozzy is singing because he's just so drat happy about millet, sometimes. Sometimes, I feel really overwhelmed by them, like when they're unhappy and I don't know why and they won't stop yelling and I can't think. There's been some hammering in a nearby apartment lately and they are just miserable about it. But then we have these moments that just feel like complete conversations, even if we're talking two different languages, and it's amazingly rewarding. My good sons.

God, I love these googly-eyed bird comics. They're perfect. Here is Ozzy, posing as he sings with joy because he ate and is full and life is good. He's been with me almost a year now. He's still not really 100% tame, but he's come really far from how incredibly broken he was when I got him.

Charlie and I are still kinda working on our relationship... but only in the sense he still has to be a TOUGH GUY when my boyfriend or Amadeus are around, and he vigorously pretends he's not truly a huge marshmallow when he's operating solely for me. Meanwhile he gets crazy-eyed as soon as Ama and Alex are in the other room and I give the barest inkling of offering scritches.

Things Terra has done this week: chewing on my stitch markers introducing himself to a friend I crocheted for him being acutely aware of how adorable he is preening! he still won't bathe though, the goddamn gremlin being upset because I ate all the quavers before he could helping me play league of legends and finally, after a long hard day of being a baby bird... ....napping on my shoulder
