Midgey was just TERRIFIED of me and I'm unsure why as I've never experienced a bird doing that. I dont know if she would've calmed down and been normal if I gave her a couple minutes but it was super weird. Im used to me opening her cage and her immediately flying to my finger but instead she started frantically flying all over and then all over the room. Usually when something spooks her she flies to me to be pet and calmed but Im unsure what about me scared her, I know I've been wearing my hair up a lot of the time and it was down when this happened but its not like shes never seen it down? Maybe just a mix of everything, but even when I caught her and was able to put her to bed, instead of running up to the front to get bedtime pets, she ran to the back of her sleep cage ):

I was just about to say the same thing! Only it's not either of the two tiels that gets scared of my nail colors... it's the Amazon!

Some of my Pionus parrots had bizarre triggers that would get you attacked, especially Lurch, my used parrot. It took a while but I/we figured out most of them and came to a understanding with each other.

Kitkat is scared of weird things like that too & he'll be a year old on March 9th so I definitely get it!
