What a tender and sensitive bird you are buddy..(my budgie was called buddy!)...i use to work in Nursing Homes and saw what a healing and therapudic impact cats/birds and dogs did for the residents..their faces would light up and the flush of a healthy red glow would shine from them...i can just imagine what you would have done for Steve when you climbed down to his arm and sat in front of him so he could see you...and the way the both of you just talked and bonded...how deeply precious (sob, sob, sniff)...let no person ever say that our animal friends are not intuitive and perceptive..they reach deeper and touch us in a very real way in our hearts and life!!!...God bless you Buddy ..may you and your owner have a bond that is tender and interpersonal...Jujuboy
