Shrek and Tilly

[Wolf]

At present, the only bird that I have to be concerned about as far as getting aggressive with another bird, and this is not all of the time as it is primarily because I am her human and she does not want any other animal touching me or getting too close to me, in her mind that is a right that is hers and hers alone. Kookooloo is a CAG and they do not pin their eyes or flair their tails or signal as openly their aggressive intent like othr parrots and in fact Kookooloo will either show no signs of aggression beyond intensely watching the other bird or animal or human or she will bow her head but not touch the ground of surface that she is on, in order to draw them into striking range. There is a look, an eye thing partly that will also give it away, but it is more of a way of looking more than anything else and I can't describe it and to people that are not accustomed to Greys, well, they just will not see it.

Sunny has very little warning signs, he does not fluff his feathers much, not like my daughter Meyers anyway, but he is not very moody either. He does not lunge, or make any beak motions, but they may come as he gets older. He makes lots of signs when he likes you though, very cute sounds. with beak movements . As a general rule with him, you have to look for the look in his eyes. If he looks frightened, thats when a person will get bit. Most new people can pet the top of Sunnys beak, but they must talk sweetly to him and blink theireyes or he will get frightened. He shows very little agression to parrots and is happy to flock with them. In contrast Gaugan will twirl around with her wings partly raised and other very showy signs so you would have to be blind not to see her signs.....lol..all the parrrots see them.
