Solomon, my Mealy Amazon, has always viewed my grandson with wild excited hostility.
The moment he'd come over, eyes pin and tail flares. He run to the cage side and attack his bars in a wild display.
My Grandson Ryan knows to keep his distance.
My Goffin loves him, my Macaw is interested, but my Amazon has always seemed to intensely dislike him.
Ryan likes all my birds, but is a bit saddened by this.
Until the other day. He asked to sit on my computer to play games.
The PC is in Solomon's room. Solomon was out, but he's not a bird to climb to the floor so I turned on the computer for Ryan.
A short time later Solomon had climbed over two cages to be closer. So I moved a stand next to the PC desk. Solomon was soon on the stands edge, as close to Ryan as he's ever been, and no aggression! Ryan was frightened at first, but soon he was thrilled to have this green bystander watching him play his games. They stayed like this for an hour or two.
I'm hoping this is the start of a relationship between the two. Solomon is normally an easygoing bird, my small grandson was the only one he'd act up with.
The next day, he did his excited angry display upon seeing him again. Hoping though some calm interactions between the two will develope.
