Breakthrough with Leroy!

Postby cml » Sat May 05, 2012 2:05 pm

Today we had a major change in Leroy's attitude towards us :). While he before tolerated us, allowed us to touch his head, and stepped up willingly, he didnt really show any affection for us.

Today though, it was noticeable that he really likes us , when he and Stitch got into a little fight on the living room floor, Leroy first ran over to my wife for support, and then flew off to me to get protection! Stitch always does this, but it was so great to see that Leroy really trusts us now :D , more than just stepping up.

Just wanted to share this with you all =), it feels great.

I never know which is which. Would you mind using the smilies to indicate which bird has what name?

I would, if there was a pionus smiley ;)
Stitch is our amazon (WFA), and Leroy is our Pionus (BWP), I added that info to my signature.
