Thanks so much to everyone who submitted a comment and/or photograph for our Valentine’s Day Giveaway. One thing is certain – there is LOVE in the air when it comes to our feathered friends! We thought we’d put together a collage of some of the photos and comments (in no particular order) for everyone to enjoy. Happy Valentine’s Day!
My Pi thinks is way cool to do the ‘mating dance’ at me when I’m exercising. Apparently waving around a pink Pilates ball=mating dance. :/
My Indian Ringneck, Gucci, has learned to whisper “I love you” when it’s bed time. If I ever have my Lori on my shoulder, he will stand up as high as he can and scream “Peek-A-boo!” to try and scare him away. So cute!
Phobos is turning a year this month and loves to dance with me. Whenever he’s with me, he just sits on my shoulder and rubs his beak together. But if I leave the room and let him sit with my roommate, he lets out a disapproving PEEP! and flies after me! He’s my sweetie.
Elton is a big baby, as you can see in the photo, he gives me his love by snuggling in my arms (upside down) and making cooing sounds. Then he will get up and come up and give me “hugs” by snuggling into the nape of neck and giving me kisses with a kissing sound. He just gives me so much joy and happiness every day we’re together.
Flightsuits allow my Blue & Gold macaw, Dude to sleep with me. No matter how much I toss and turn, Dude always tries to make sure that we’re holding “hands” while we sleep. He loves to hang out with me while I get ready to go out, luckily Dude usually whispers “Hurry up” just in time to keep me from being late! (flightsuits allow Dude the freedom to go where ever I go)
My female Ringneck dove, Charlotte, shows the love by simply putting up with her mate, Edgar’s antics! Here she is sharing the nest with him despite his poor nest etiquette. If that isn’t love, I don’t know what is!
They don’t show love to ME…. They were supposed to be my birds and instantly bonded to my husband. The one preens and grooms him impeccably…..He also has a special greeting call just for Rusty when rusty gets home or comes into the room. It’s a really excited, great to see you, glad you’re hear type call.
Buddy, my Goffin Cockatoo, shows me so much love by just being there and knowing how I feel! If I am hurting, he wants to cuddle. If I am happy, he wants to play fetch and he talks to me! He is so handsome and gentle. He is everything I want and need! With the flight suits I am able to take him alot of places, such as the fair and trail rides. I know when he is getting nervous and never put him in a situation that he doesn’t like. He really enjoys going out for walks and is now calling the dogs and says hello when people stop us. I have an Aussie and a Jack Russell and he calls out their name, and tells them to slow down or sit when we are on walks.
Mal likes to preen my hair and undo my barrettes. He also gives kisses.
One of my citron cockatoos, Pan, will hold one of my fingers in one of her feet. It is so special to me, and I think to her as well.
Pinot, my little Sun Conure loves me so much, he even tries to regurgitate his dinner for me. 
Aura loves to preen us, and its almost always the first thing she does when we pick her up. Always so tidy! Though she babbles more than she actually talks (but don’t tell her that!) she can whisper the word “kisses” and gives a little nibble to our noses while we smooch her. By far her favorite way to show us the love is to talk… and talk… and talk! With Aura around my boyfriend and I are never lonely.
When my partner walked in on Christmas morning with a baby cockatiel in a cage for me, I wasn’t quite sure what to do with her. She was wild and untamed, and drew blood biting my finger on more than one occasion. It was not long before she settled down and began to trust, and I fell in love with her. Now we spend every possible minute together, she sits on my shoulder and nibbles my earring and lovingly butts her head against mine. In the evening she climbs up on me, tucks her little head under her wing and goes to sleep:) I couldn’t imagine my life without my Ki Ki!:)
Charmin, my U2, is a big kisser. Whether we are cuddling under the covers or out-n-about, he is always very affectionate. Even if he is upset with me for preventing him from being a naughty bird he will gladly give me a kiss (as a form of bribery, of course). He’s also a little jealous birdie and will kiss me in front of “unwanted” (in his opinion:) ) guests. I LOVE my Charmin!
Oh Sunny needs a LoveSuit! She will be 1 year old on Valentine’s Day 2012! She loves to give kisses and snuggle!
My too and I have evening conversations in our night time quiet time voices . Soooo adorable!
