Woodie
is our pet cockatiel, age unknown, because I bought her at a
garage sale on my birthday. I went up to this metal cage & the
sign said "Bird & Cage $15.00." I looked at the sign
& thought to myself, "Bird?" I lifted the sign and
peeked at Woodie and Woodie immediately "wolf whistled" at
me. I knew it was a done deal at that point. The lady who sold her to
me told me that Woodie was a male, less than a year old, but after
reading several books on the subject, Woodie is really a female and
is over two years old.
Woodie loves me very much, and wolf whistles at me all the time. When
I walk in the room she starts shrieking at me and the farther away I
get from her, the louder she gets. She likes my husband and son, but
if I walk in the room, she sees me immediately and starts getting
excited and wants me to pick her up. If I ignore her, she will fly to
me. She wants to be with me constantly. She does have a game she
plays. When she doesn't like what is going on, she will fly off into
the kitchen & get up on the top of the cabinets, where she will
"hide". She will sit on the edge, and when we go to get her
down, she will back up and get down where you can't see anything but
her top knot. When you quit trying to get her down, she will climb
back onto the edge.
I've just discovered recently that she likes beer. She will watch the
beer can and try to get close to it so she can have a drink. She also
like to pick my teeth and preen my hair, and loves being on my
shoulder. Guess who is helping me write this nomination?? You know
it. I have to watch her because she wants my ear rings and as soon as
I jerk away and yell at her, she wolf whistles. Who can be mad at
that?
