Things your bird does to spite you...?

Ouch! So glad that the worst bite I ever got was just a budgie cuticle bite.

I actually cut a chunk out of my finger working yesterday...1AAAAA (that was Einstien)

He's hormonal and really nippy now. I've had a chunk taken out of my right index finger, my right forearm and now my ear. Normally I just tell him "no" and put him back in the cage, but the ear really, really hurt. Once he sees that he hurt me, he tries to give kisses and while it's sweet and all, it would be much sweeter if I could keep my skin in place.

marty chases my grandma out of my room trying to bite her feet, he scares people then laughs by trying to bite then and it is an evil laugh.. he climbs down off of the couch but looks at me first and gives me this look like haha im leaving you just try to stop me! then waddles over and try to nibble at my dog.. oh and my dogs eat his peanut shells and he climbs down to where the dogs are to try to bite them..

My 'Sushi' is a character.. (she's a Queens, NY girl, which is where I found her on a tree, and brought her back to civilized, suburban NJ)

- Back to the orig. question, the one thing she does to p me off (I believe) is, when she's perched on my shoulder watching TV but gets tired/hungry/wants to go back in the cage,she poops (I leave a cloth or paper towel over my shirt on the spot she likes to perch) and casually flings her poop at my leg or arm - must be a bad habit from Queens(?). She's done that in front of other people, like the vet, and cracked them up. One theory floated at the time was that she doesnt want to get herself soiled, so she eliminates the problem the best way she can.. But I'm not so sure about that, since it doesmt seem to bother her all the time, but only when she's ready to go back to teh cage..

-*She's also an extremely manipulative daddy's girl and always gets her sucker Dad to do what she wants, specially when she does this little "cry" whistle-like soft sound when she wants attention, or wants the lights on, or something is bothering her, etc..

Well, my tiel just does the general annoyingness cos he is a baby tiel at the moment. Whenever it's time top put him back In his cage, he flies around and lands on my light. He does this quite a few times so I try to reward him when in the cage so he likes the cage. He also tends to fly to me randomly and lands on my shoulder, cute but annoying when I am busy lol.

Rambo dunks his food in his water dish and I have to change it 3 or 4 times a day.

What he really enjoys is hiding behind the toilet when he hears my aunt getting up (that is the only time she ever gets up). He waits for her to get comfortable then runs out and nips her ankle.
She screams bloody murder. He screams with her and he seems pleased with himself.

Bobby enjoys playing " You should pick that up so I can drop it again. " otherwise known as " Oops I dropped it " .
But he likes to do it with paper clips.

My GCC will run across my laptop keyboard, grab a key, and run away. It is usually the shift key or the delete key.

my old cockatiel used to fly on top of doors and poop directly on the door handle. My dad would grab the handle everytime and make a big fuss
When I watch movies/shows online rainbow will step on the spacebar of the keyboard and pause them so I end up paying attention to her instead

My new baby cockatiels already figured out how to make me crazy! She only likes to go in my room to play with the shint medal cross necklace i have; which is fine by me. But the sge flyes on my head or on the floor where she knows im going to have to put her on the laptop table and let her by the screen to watch... Byt then she wants to take it faryher and pivk at the keyboard! She LOVES the Escape key the most since it's by itself and she knows I uses it alot for my game! She's learned alot already of my habbits lol! Now she knows when I wake up too! Everyone wakes up before 10:00am and no one takes her out until I wake up. But I wake up at around 10:30 to snuggle/kiss her in the morning so then she chirps all morning talking to me lol! She is the most adorable thing! She also hates getting a bath and be disturbed after 9:00pm lol! She's a Little rascal she is! Lol I'm going to have fun with her I know it! She really starting to bond with me too!
