Spike loves Luna.

We've had our cockatiel, Spike, for almost a year now. He was roughly 6 weeks old when we got him, and not tame in any way. We already had 2 budgies when Spike joined the flock, Pippin and Luna. Luna was only a couple of months old at the time, and has been utterly bonded with Pippin since she first set eyes on him.

Spike has always been very fond of the budgies, but now it seems he is actually in love with Luna.

He follows her everywhere. He sings to her, bows to her, dances and hops around her, pretends to eat beside her. The minute she steps into view his wings open that little bit, so he looks like a more splendid bird!

It's amazing and amusing and quite tragic. Like some sort of Shakespearan play! He is utterly besotted, and she has eyes (understandably) only for Pippin!





And while I'm posting birdy youtubes - here's Buffy discovering that other bird in the mirror! XD

I saw this on youtube a few days ago! (when I was uploading my vids I think?) I adore Frostie!! And Shake your tailfeather has significance for fanboyhubby and I (we met at the Blues Bros), which made it doubly cool. ;~)
