Be careful what you wish for! As I've read posts about friendly budgies, I've thought 'I wish my Buddy would come sit on me and play with me'. Well, I got my wish to the extreme. When Buddy is out, he flies to my head, grabs a fistful of hair and slides down. He tries to sit on my glasses but I shoo him away. He tries to sit on my ear and nibble - ouch, off you go!. He flies to the back of my chair, jumps to my shoulder and grooms my neck. No Buddy, those skin tags are part of me, not to be groomed off! Then he'll crawl around to the front of my shirt and try to groom my neck. He really wants to sit on my hand and play with it. While I'm sitting and knitting, he dive bombs my hand. He has decided that the knitting needles are not to be feared so he lands on my hand causing me to stop and play or shake him off. Buddy, go play with Tweetie Pie!

Embrace the Love TPM!
Your spectacles are an excellent structure for landings, I would encourage that. But only when you're wearing glasses as a budgie trying to land on your face is less fun. Also the evil look you get when the budgie finds you're not wearing your specs is chilling.
Ask me how I know all this.

Thanks, loz! If Buddy lands on my glasses, he wants to preen/kiss my eyelids. That feels like tiny bee stings, so no thank you. Apparently I have very sensitive eyelids. If I walk up to my boys without my eyeglasses, I do get the 'who are you look'.

Max used to land on my glasses. When I was using the computer. Luckily he never found my skin tags.
Love how Buddy used your hair as a rope

You know how budgies, when they learn something new or discover a new toy, seem obsessed with it? I'm hoping Buddy will tone it down once the 'newness' wears off.
