We had a large mirror on the wall behind the couch. I saw her land there and say "hello there Myrtle". She had accepted that the bird was really her.

Some birds will bond with the bird in the mirror and even try to mate with it. If your bird is obsessed with the mirror it is best to remove it. I do not give any of my birds mirrors.
