Is my bird the only bird...

My GCC is obsessed with our ears. She'll nibble on/in them and I have no clue why. Our ears are clean, I swear, lol. After she does that, she'll get in the crook of my neck and kinda flutter her wings for a bit. She does this with anyone she trusts and I'd just like to know if this is normal behavior? Should we feel honored or disgusted? ;)

Roma tries to nibble my ears, but I turn my head so he cannot reach them and he is getting the picture, slowly. Not sure about the wing fluttering in the neck, but Roma likes to climb under my hair and play or if it is chilly, just sit and push his face behind my ear to warm his beak and toes.

When Gilligan feels like preening me, he nibbles my ears, and then preens my hair. He also wants to play with the ear pieces of my glasses, but that is off limits.

Your bird is trying to take care of your. Consider it an honor.

I have tunnels in my ears so my birds have always liked to attempt to rip them out :wideyed:
