Hi everyone! Mango here!!!
I just thought that I would stop by and say hello to all of my friends in the AA forum.
I hope that everyone is doing well and staying safe during this crazy time we are in.
I am doing well!! Now that my human is working from home, we have a lot of time to bond. I continue to get more comfortable with my human and I stay very close to him all day, usually sitting on his computer monitor as he works, or on the ceiling fan over his bed. He likes to give me occasional treats while we sit together which I really like, though it makes for a very messy desk by quitting time. I am getting more comfortable stepping up onto his hand for a sunflower seed, though I still find the human hand to be one of the most repugnant appendages in the animal world. Lately, I have also been stepping up onto his shoulder for a treat! I think I like this better than a hand.
My human leaves the door of my cage open most of the time, and I go in and out as I please. I like to go to bed each night around 8:30, and wake up each morning anywhere from 8:30 to 10:00, depending upon my mood.
I like to express myself. Sometimes with loud screeches and yells around lunch time. My human is worried that the neighbors might not like this, but so far we have not had any complaints. I am a celebirdy with my human's work team because they can hear me yelling during his Microsoft Teams meetings during the day. This can sometimes lead to him telling me to shut up in the rudest of tones, which only inspires me to get louder.
This is me enjoying a tasty cashew after my bath recently.

This is a shot of me taking my afternoon beauty rest on my human's computer monitor while he works. I like staying close to him.

This is me begging my human for another sunflower seed while he works. I would do just about anything for a sunflower seed!!!

I am very happy to have a comfortable home here with my human. We don't always see eye-to-eye on everything, but we are buddies. And now that spring has sprung, I sometimes think I would like to take our relationship to the next level, but my human seems to be very resistant to that. Oh well.
Please say hello to all of my cousins in your flocks, and give them a sunflower seed for me! Tell them it's a little treat from Mango!
And stay safe!!!!!!
