Emmy loves Ben.

After shrieking at him for almost a year now, out of the blue, Ember has decided that Ben is no longer a threat. :)

aww, how sweet! Is that Vegemite boy--the one who ate it right out of the jar?

[leelastarsky]

Yes, it is. :~)

i love it when you post video of your wonderful birds! and i just adore listening to your and ben's accents!

emmy is just too precious... giving all her snuggles to him.

[leelastarsky]

She is such a snugglepot! She adores fanboyhubby too. :~D

[gmth]

I dunno... looks like she's checking him out to see if he'd be good eating.

(That is SO CUTE! :-D)

They say sun conures are macaws in miniature; they certainly act like it. Emmy is afraid of SO many things, and shrieks (to warn the rest of the flock) accordingly. If the thing she regards as a threat (person, cat, dog, whatever) won't leave, she attacks it! All 5" of her!

Ben has been at the receiving end of her outrage for nearly a year and, as a result, didn't like her at all. The morning I took this video, she landed on him, and I rushed to distract her and get her off before she launched an attack. But instead of attacking...she did what you see in the video. Which is Emmy's way of saying "I love you!" and why Ben looked so bewildered and delighted. ♥

So cute! He's giving him little kisses! Or trying to eat him!

[leelastarsky]

No, she's definitely kissing! The head bobbing thing is a definite sign of affection. And the bit where she looks like she's nibbling his face? She's actually preening him, which definitely means love! :~)

[kerryblaze]

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww..... And she's such a beautiful color! Such amazing creatures.

How do you get your birds so adorable?!! If I tried that with mine it would bite my face off :S
