Yes my friend, you have owned the "oh so innocent" lovebird hookbills. You know exactly what that "look" means.

Babs I'm familiar with that look. My grey can usually be talked out of it. I will say this I have to be sincere talking to him if I expect him to cooperate otherwise things don't go my way. he loves to laugh especially when he hears me laugh but If he has a bad attitude and I laugh at him his bad attitude would be locked in. Very thin skin! Lol! :D

My Lovebirds (or at least 2 of them), were Sociopathic maniacs. They would smile at you, as sweet and innocent as angels, then go for the kill :twisted:

Yep, Ronan comes out of it very easily too. After I shut off the camera, I said "Let's go get a grape"

He stepped up, I put him on my shoulder, then he went into "airplane-mode" with his wings out. I said "Vroooooom!" while speeding all the way to the kitchen.

It's all good fun!

So your previous little "beauties" wouldn't puff up? They'd just act all honky-dory and then grab ya?

Good gosh, no warning or anything! :evil: How in the world you managed to own them for years (especially the mother and daughter you had).

You had some serious patience girlie. And quick reflexes!
