Max was in a mood this evening and was giving me big time attitude. But as you can hear he is laughing too. So you can tell he is just being a brat and playing with me. Some days you just need to let your inner bird out.
desertdarlene i have 2goffins cockatoos and a macaw. it gets interesting at my house at times. especially when they get wound up and the senegal,cockatiels,lovebirds,budgies,and sun conure join in the fun. the 8yorkies and my 11yr old cat just chill and take it all in stride. i do have ear plugs. lol
Your blessings are as numerous as your toys, Maxwell, and not least among them is a loving dad who understands that you need run-around-and-scream time, just like a little kid.
I feel when we see our birds have the "demon" attack (LOL), it is their way of releasing the natural frustrations we all feel from day to day living .. the birds are still natural and free in their spirits and the way they express themselves, which is why in a moment's notice they can release those feelings very visually and vocally (notice the rocking back and forth behavior, a form of frustration release). We and other "domesticates" (LOL) feel those things but have been "trained" not to express it so much .. Notice how quickly he changed when you stroked him .. Max is wonderfully free spirited and expressive, and a joy to watch (even when he is in a "mood", LOL).
I really wish I could save one of these intelligent birds and live my life by one as 2 buddies, but unfortunately I just don't have the capacity to handle such loud irritating sounds. I can be short tempered because of the stress I deal with at work and I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if I found myself yelling at such an amazing animal for being itself. For that reason I won't own one, I don't trust myself. I've had many pets so far and handled them all very well, but i've never had to deal with an animal with the ability to generate this amount of noise haha. You're a good man for having the tolerance and patience to take care of such an animal.
sacr3 I’m happy you recognize your short temper unfortunately a lot of people that don’t have the patience for these beings and many others don’t , Dan has extreme patience and Max is just precious you can tell how happy he is I’ve seen others who don’t look like they are well treated and it shows.
Maxwell is angry because } daddy picked up the floor , and his land mine field has been cleared , and is safe to navigate. He's laughing because he has plans to rule the world.
Glenda Clark You're absolutely right! But I'd personally prefer if the God who constructed our dear feathered friends ruled over us... Although Max would undoubtedly look quite handsome with a tiny robe, crown & scepter ☺
I think the parrots like Marlene's Vinnie who communicate really well sound like insane humans. They will be engaged in a perfectly logical conversation, then all of a sudden say something like get the big box bird! Fly girl!
These 2 are hilarious. Certain situations remind me of old radio programmes where you here ghostly conversation but not. quite what is said. Many thanks for sharing
Its ok to let off steam Max, we all have to do it from time to time! lots of love to you and Daddy, and I hope that you both have a wonderful weekend! Carole xx
Hey *rowdy* little boy "in the feathers," you're *CRACKING ME UP* ... Sounds as if you might have a case of "Funny-Cockatoo-Indigestion" requiring 2 lemon flavored, "Tums"... LOL
And I love his deep voice, and the funny way you talk to him, O he knows how to sound like a chicken too lol🐣 very smart birdie🤗 I would love to see max in person😊
He sounded as if he said “I get sick of talking to you or to me...!” Or “it even sounds like he is saying “You’re screwed talking to me!” *chuckles!* Not sure...because I keep listening and then I re do it all over again to hear better and better each time...lol! Oh Max, you are such an awesome beautiful, funny ,intelligent funky birdie! Love ya,yer so”clawsome”!
I feel like acting like that sometime, too. I don't cause I have self control, and filters on my behavior, but stuff piss me off sometimes too. so here's to you Max do your thang...😋
Max's is so smart I just love watching him never know what he is going to do next something different everytime! He is full of joy!. A very special bird God gave you! Thank you Dan for sharing him with the world 🌎 ❤️
I'm attempting to decide if he is imitating a T-Rex or a goat. Whichever it is at least he was able to laugh at himself. As usual Dan, you did a great job with him! Love ya both! ^_^
Lol my goodness he was on one today!!! One of the best videos of Max!!! His mood changes so quickly!!! And Dan u really put some serious hours into him.xx
when you zoomed in and the white balance got thrown off, it was oddly artistic. the silhouette with the Mr. Max watermark in the center... haunting, eerie, striking...
