Not just birds, other animals too! They know the kids can be rough, and Max not being exposed with children often. Max is protecting his territory, which most animals do. I would never let my children get near close like that to animals, especially the first time. I was nervous myself watching, how close those visitors are with Max.😬 Love our Max, he is a handsome birdie. Thank you for sharing Dan. The girls are so cute! Blessing to everyone.😇🥰
Good morning Dan, meeow Dusty, hiiiii Max and fellow flockatoos everywhere around the world. Max wasn't trying to be mean he was a bit startled by the cute little girls quick movements. Other than that he's a good little birdie. ☺️💖
I’m on Max’s side…the girls didn’t understand his boundaries ..so ofcourse he’s gong to get defensive….don’t worry Max, you were not mean at all…the girls just don’t understand you 💕
I guess little folk as lovely as these two little ones are, while innocent in their movements and response towards Max he didn't understand their intentions and went into mean Max mode for self preservation. Dan knows Max so well and am sure he guided the situation with his little visitors well and calmly too. How lovely for them to get some of his beautiful feathers to take home. 🪶🪶 Clever Max to know to move to ground level when the thunder storm alert came on. He is such a character.
Oh Max. They were so lucky to visit with you. They were very sweet, . Maybe he was to nervous? I still love you Max, and would come visit😊❤. Thanks for sharing Dan.
Hello, my cherished sister, our boy is not used to so much company, it seems. I suspect that he probably doesn't know them too well. Next time... 👏🎊 I hope that your afternoon is going well, dear Aya. Soon you'll be off work, and hopefully be out in nature, enjoying, as you know how to do, the beauty that surrounds you.🌞🎉 I'm leaving shortly, to join some dear relatives for lunch. Tons of love, and beautiful, blessed, joyful prayers, and tidings are sent your way, dear Aya. 💙 to you, your family, and 🇫🇮, from my family, me, and the 🇺🇸 🌊🌊💘🤠💘🤠💘🤠🙏🏻🕊🥰🥰🐈🙏🏻

I hope your lunch meeting with the relatives go well, food is good and that you will feel refreshed and relaxed😀. Lots of love to you, your family and relatives all the way from east Europe 🌊🪶🐾🦆.
@@ayahannabroman2675 My treasured, sister friend, I'm happy you were 'unleashed' 😅 in time to get in a swim 🏊♀️, and visit the crow family. That's lovely. It's nice that the weekend is ahead. Thank you, Aya. We had a very nice lunch, and then hung around, and chatted for a spell. I know by now, you're probably fast asleep. I hope you enjoy pleasant dreams.😴 Heaps of love, and beautiful, blessed, heartfelt prayers and wishes are heading your way, dear Aya. 💙 from my loved ones, me, and the 🇺🇸, to you, your loved ones, and 🇫🇮 💙 🌊💘💘💘🤠🤠🤠🙏🏻🕊🥰🥰🐈🙏🏻

Hello Dan and Dusty adorable kitty 🐱 and Mr Max . Oh I’d felt for you The Thunder and Visitors at the same time . Your not mean you are just protecting yourself ❤the two little girl’s didn’t realise not too move so close wasn’t no one’s fault ❤. The Handsome Mr Max need’s too have some play time and relax hopefully the storms ⛈️ gone? Have a enjoyable weekend together.Its Friday Evening here I. Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
"Dad, PLEASE don't bring those little people home, I know you'll make me share my toys with them" 😱 You can tell they loved Max!! I think if he was around kids more, he'd probably get use to them. They certainly are little cuties pies though! 💗
Ah Max, you are not a mean bird--I'm on your side, It's scary when you're not used to little girl visitors!! I thought you were trying to be very brave!! Rest up sweetie!!
The visitors were just excited and fascinated by max. I don’t think they understood that he was nervous and unsure of them because they’re just kids and think that every pet wants to play with them.
@@kj8314. That’s why children need to be instructed. Things can be explained. When I was given a kitten at age 8, my mother thoroughly explained to me how NOT to bother the kitten. I remember some of it was don’t touch her while she’s sleeping because she needs her rest, don’t bother her while she’s eating, etc. I wasn’t a loud, unpredictable kid so there wasn’t a lot of worry, but I knew enough to listen to what I was told.
@@angelwings7930 well they did listen when Dan told them not to get too close. They were just excited and most kids get excited when they see a new pet. I was like that when i was a kid too.
But they were loud and screechy! And they stared at me like I was their lunch! I was actually far more civilized than a lot of birds out there! My blue-fronted Amazon would definitely not have been so restrained & hospitable!
My cat is like that, too. She seems to understand they are mini humans but doesn't like it when they're close to her, probably cause she knows they can be unpredictable
Poor Mr Max, I think he was just over whelmt with the situation , I get fed up with other humans too sometimes, I can understand how he felt .The little girls were just excited and were sweet - I'm sure Max hasn't put them off, they will come and visit again I think. Sending you lots of love Mr Max, you are a lovely Bird ❤❤❤❤
Yvonne - I totally agree. His space is being invaded. The kids are not precious, they’re not cute, they’re loud and obnoxious, especially to a sensitive pet.
Now Maxwell T Birb-thats no way 2treat ur guests- but u wasnt sure about those lil people & thats OK-just NO biting those sweet lil girls-u may have sparked an interest in their hearts-future bird rescuers/adopters.. After they left u let Daddy know u had it all under control..lol ❤U Max. ✌
I think our precious boy is just not used to *littles, even two cuties. It wasn't personal. He just likes his space... I got my Cockatoo Babbel book out. Max said that next time he'll be more cordial.🤭... After alerting the neighborhood, our BRILLIANT boy took off, and went to a lower area when the severe, storm warnings came on. Hoping Dad Dan, our adorable boys, and all of us enjoy a pleasant, peaceful day. 🤠🤠🤠💘💘💘🙏🏻🕊🥰🥰🐈🙏🏻
Hello, to my dear, sister friends Doris, Wendy, Elizabeth, Ellen #227, Tina, Sarah, Aya, Iris, Susan, Robyn, Sheena, Lynn, Cheryl, Lillian, dear Debbie and dear Dori... I can't get this to post. I love you, and am sending blessed prayers and wishes your way.
Hello to my dear, sister friends, I have tried three times to post. I love you, and send blessed, beautiful prayers and wishes to all of you. I am posting this one sentence at a time, and keeping it streamlined. I think our boy was feeling overwhelmed. I wonder how he might have been with his cage nearby.
@@elizabethjohnson2333 My beloved sister, I love you, 'TOO. I hope this means you're feeling better, Elizabeth. Yes, our boy was uneasy. You take care, and I'll call you when I get back.
Max isn't socialized other than with Dan's family and a few friends. It's no surprised he was on edge and stressed with the newcomers and the fact kids can be loud and move too suddenly for him to feel comfortable. He was just reacting as one would expect of a parrot with strangers, particularly when they invade his personal space.
good morning Max, dan and company. The girls are so adorable...but Max looks a bit unsure. He doesn't see many people on a regular basis. Its his protective mode. We all love him tho, yes !! HAGD XOXO
MAX IS A GOOD BOY! A scared bird reacting like a scared bird means that the birds “parent “should’ve prepared the bird for visitors coming over or perhaps not let those little girls so close to him, knowing that Max isn’t used to that kind of stimulation. An animal is not “mean “or “bad “just because they don’t do what we want them to do
Max was just being max . The little girls close and sudden movements most likely made him scared and defensive. Most animals find children unpredictable, I know I do .
Gm happy Friday and weekend everyone bird lips had company he felt a bit startled he was good kept his distance now in his man cave to do work sharpen his beak 😉😁🤍🤍🤍
Overwhelmed, huh, Max? You have so many fans if only you knew. And you knew Daddy Dan was talking to you, didn't you, seeking cover in your box. p.s. horrendous storms here too, fast and furious and maybe you sense 'em coming, huh, Max? Have a great weekend and hope this awful heat dome thing passes soon!
Max Dusty is handsome Dan u are a good daddy u have a gorgeous home i like listening too his stories he is a good story teller he is funny puts a smile on my face hugs kisses too Max have a wonderful blessed day keep safe
Don’t be too hard on Max, Dad Dan. He isn’t used to children with their sudden movements and laughter. They made him nervous and on guard. If he had grown up around kids, it would probably be a different thing. He’s a beautiful and loving boy.❤
I think that clucking noise that sounds like "laughter" is anything but; it sounds like an anxiety response. Max making his feathers big seemed like a warning too. I was worried Max was going to snap at the girls, and he came close to doing so. Anyway I'm glad nothing bad happened!
Birds that aren't around strangers a lot aren't being mean. It's more like their a little fearful because they don't know them. But quick movements towards Max should be told to children ahead of time, not to do. Poor Max. Max is acting natural. Max is always a good boy. Love Max......he is special. ❤
