1. Maybe he likes to rest his head against your heart
and feel your heartbeat. :-)

3. If he weren't also rubbing his cloaca on my arm, I'd buy that...

7. Oh man, is that what he's doing?
That is not good. Can you get him out of your shirt without being bitten? My senegal, who lives with my ex, will jump on his hand and rub his cloaca all over it, getting really excited. I always would yell at him to put the bird back in his cage when he did that. Quite inappropriate behavior, I would say. :-)

11. LOL...my Amazon only did that to me once.
I was reading a book in bed and he started doing his famous "chicken dance." He rubbed his cloaca on my hand and whitish fluid came out. I'm like, "Thanks for the parrot sperm, Gabby." That's when I knew for sure Gabby was male. I didn't have him sexed until a couple of years later, but I figured parrot sperm was already a pretty good indicator. (And yes, the chromosome test confirmed he was male.)

9. Uh oh.
The shirt is a "nest box." My bird does the "chicken dance" for me when he finds dark places. :) Gideon is in LUUUUUUUUUUV.

10. OK, now I have to go get my green thing.
He could use some attention since mama has been in bed with a bad back.

6. You didn't already have one?
He thought he was giving you something you didn't already have. Is it your birthday? :) What a sweet Gideon!
