He's terribly needy, isn't he, Auntie Marianne?
I'll see what I can do but I think he's enough excitement tonight. I've no idea how I'll get him to go to sleep.

Dear Diary I just now perched on Daddeh's leg, right next to Quincy. She had a little whinge about it but it was all OK. Quincy waited until Daddeh got his camera in position and then scarpered and I flew off, too. The expression on Daddeh's face when he'd missed his chance! What fun Coco, fly at the phone and try to rip the case off! It's fun!

Human Female will tell us how adorable and precious we are, then call the human male for "lights out" time in our room. He always wants to give all of us extra treats before bed!

Dear Diary I sat on Daddeh's chest for a whole minute yesterday evening while we watched a film. Quincy on Daddeh's shoulder hissed at me and I hissed back. What fun!
No millet forthcoming though. I am disappoint. Maybe next time!

This is epic! I'm so pleased. I hope Quincy will get used to sharing you with Coco or you'll get a lot of bites!

A bit earlier Daddeh had Quincy in one shoulder and me on the cushion next to his other one. Nearly! I was sitting on Daddeh's leg a few times this evening and I landed on his lap as well. I think that this is what you're supposed to do, at least, according to Quincy.

So it appears my previous suggestion that you might need to get a third cockatiel is unfounded. Quincy is clearly working her taming magic.

Coco, if Daddeh ever decides he wants a holiday. Tell him I'll happily come and cockatiel/budgie sit. We can hatch a plan for cockatiel number three to come and keep you company. Heck maybe we can just get one and add them into the flock before he gets home? Let's face it, it's clear from the number of budgies in the house he loses his ability to count over one or two?

Message from Daddeh: Oooh, I could really make you regret that lovely offer, BE. It's only the thought that you'd actually carry out your plan that gives me pause! _________ Silly Daddeh
