Aww, he sounds so cute! This reminds me of the last time I went to a bird store...

When looking at the birds bording there I saw one of those "stack" type cages (one cage that is turned into two...one above the other) and an umbrella too in each one. I love cockatoos so of course had to go see them...I started talking to the one on the bottom and after a minute or 'too' I began talking to the other one. Then I feel something holding my shirt and look down to see a little grey foot reaching as far out as it can. I thought this was hilarious so of course I had to talk to him some more. He then started scratching his own head really slowly (and I remembered reading that some birds will do that when they want you to pet them) and then leaned his head against the cage bars and allowed me to pet him.

After looking around the store a little more, I heard a cute little cockatiel whistling the andy griffith song a few feet from the too's cage. I was talking to him when I again had a little birdy foot holding my shirt. Everytime I walked away to look at another bird he would do whatever he could to get my attention including dancing and talking. He was really 'too cute!
