Can lovebirds try to preen humans

[LarryThelovie]

me and my sister have notices Larry does to our hair what he does to his feathers when preening , so I’m curious as to what hes doing haha . Is he trying to preen us?

Definitely my lovies preen me all time too I let Henkie preen my eye lids and lashes, Fëanor too if he is in the mood but often he likes to play better

Our female green cheek used to preen everyone who would cuddle her, our goffin cockatoo preens my husband's hair and beard, and our macaw preens my hair and sometimes my shirts. Not sure whether it's certain fabrics he likes or the way certain shirts lay, but he gently preens them just like his feathers!

YEP.......their preening you!

Yep, it's preening I have had some also try to remove freckles from my skin thinking they were helping

 

[Feather]

Yup!
It's all fun and games until they rip out a few eyelashes... of course I'm not speaking from experience or anything.
