Hi does anyone else have a tiel that goes bonkers if he/she hears a whistle being blown on the tv etc?
Jake goes mad he climbs around and whistles like no tomorrow!! also if he hears a seagull he does the same!

My budgies often get really noisy if there hear birds on the tv, they put their heads on one side like they are trying to work out where the sound is coming from, then call and fly around.
Maybe yours think its another bird. My gang also go nuts if they hear birds outside or if they see birds flying by outside.
Blue has a sound an awful lot like a teil whistle so I think she was probably in a cage/aivery near one before we got her.

Awww how cute is that blessss . Its all gone quiet here, my lot have been noisy all day and now all is peaceful as they have a little doze. They have just had some egg food as a special treat for being so clever with taming this week. Minty is getting very brave and did sit on my finger this week, Sky will fly to me if I put may hand in the cage holding broccoli, Harry is beginning to stop biting if I distract him each time he tries to bite and Blue put her foot on my finger twice this week. So I decided to give them a special treat. They avoided it for a while but as soon as one started to eat it they were fighting each other to get to the dish. At one point there were three of them all standing tall on the dish and if anyone put their head down to eat the others went for him. They got board in the end and retired to seperate dishes, I had put 2 dishes in as Sky and Minty get a bit territorial around food and don't like to share with the others. Love em Billie |
