Cherry, the Cockatiel has adapted to life with our family very well over the last couple weeks. She’s become more friendly and loves to sit with us.
I love these photos of Nathan. 
Cherry likes to hop down from her open cage and walk around the floor. It’s pretty funny to walk in the room, hear her “squawk” and see her wandering about.
I cleaned out the bird cages this morning and let Sky, our parakeet (who is not hand-friendly) out. His wings aren’t clipped and he flies up to the curtains. I put Cherry (whose wings are clipped) up with him.
Abby, our Pug, loves the birds.
She wants to be friends with them.

She doesn’t understand why they don’t want to hang out with her.
She squeals and makes the funniest noises.
I can assure you, she has no intention of eating them. She just wants to play. Of course, they don’t know that.
Listen to her here:

What a beautiful bird! I love that you perched her up on the curtains with the other bird hehe. So cute! And how cute that your pug wants to be “friends” with them. Hmmm…wonder why they aren’t interested?
haha

They are just so cute. Love the look of longing from the pug. I guess I can understand the birds’ hesitancy to get close.

great photos. I had a cockatiel and a pug growing up. Someone stole my pug
and the cockatiel was so cool he’d yell my name ever day when it was time for me to come home from school.
