Peeko is obsessed with paper towels… he tries to nip me for touching HIS!!! paper towels when he poops and I clean it up :P
Spencer does the same thing! He also recently discovered that he can pull tissues out of the Kleenex box one at a time and run around with them, so now he tries to sneak them when he thinks I'm not paying attention. Green cheeks are hilarious. :D

omg he is freaking precious!
He is SO CUTE. He's being even chattier than usual lately--my guess is he's feeling "flockier" since it's winter and he wants to snuggle more to keep warm (not that we keep it cold in our apartment in the winter, but that during the summer it's regularly 85 degrees F in here thanks to our stupid south-facing patio door -_- ). The other day he produced the word "Shpooper", which was a totally new one on me. :D

I wish Peeko knew more than a few words and could string sentences together D: Oh well, he’s a sound-bird, not a word-bird.
It really seems like birds are one or the other--Spencer doesn't really do sounds at all. He does a decent blue jay impression, and has this horrible high-pitched beeping noise that sounds like an old fashioned digital alarm clock, but that's it as far as noises go. Peeko does seem cuddlier than Spencer, though! Spencer's been getting cuddlier, but he's still too hyper to cuddle a lot of the time.

Peeko would have panicked and flapped around the room until he landed on my head, lmao. If even a leaf falls past the window, he freezes.
Beatrix is like that! She CANNOT HANDLE IT if there are birds or squirrels on the balcony--she just freezes and won't stop staring out the sliding door, and if I try to scritch her for comfort she grumps and rapid-bites at me, like, "NO NOT NOW I HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON THESE SUSPICIOUS CREATURES"
Spencer LOVES it, though. He gets super excited and runs around the chair and replies to the birds if he can hear them (he does a decent blue jay imitation these days, lol). He'll also run around going, "SHPOOP SHPOOP" or "WHAT YOU DOING" or "COME HERE, BUDDY" at the outside birds. :D I don't know if he likes seeing them or if they make him territorial--he does tend to puff up and do his "aggressive kiss noises" sometimes, so maybe he's trying to scare them off, but 1) they ignore him or can't hear him and 2) it's ADORABLE to watch.

GCC poops are huge to you?? :P lmao, I thought they’re tiny!
They're huge compared to budgie poops! Although I'm sure they have nothing on larger species. :D
Does Spencer react to emotion in music? When I watch movies, Peeko reacts strongly and appropriately to the instrumental music and its mindblowing, other people have commented on it too so its not just me noticing!
It's hard to say! When we watch movies, he's usually more concerned with chasing the budgies around/trying to eat what I'm eating/getting hand hugs, so I don't know that he pays that much attention to the music. He does respond to emotion in conversation, though--if Sarah and I are debating something we feel strongly about, Spencer likes to try to chime in with his opinion. :D

Your parakeets are the best things ever, lmao
Thank you! :D They are HILARIOUS to watch. They're always so dramatic, lol.

Peeko makes typing almost impossible, lmao. He decides the keys are getting entirely too much of my attention and will march onto the keyboard, hook his claws into the keys, sit with his butt on the keyboard, puff up, and demand scratches. If this doesn’t work, he follows my fingers around and shoves himself between them and my keyboard xD
AWWW PEEKO ;_;
Spencer does the "follow my fingers around and shove himself under them" thing, which is SO CUTE and hilarious I can't ever be annoyed by it. :D He also likes to roll on his side and flail his feet at me (you can see him doing this a little bit during the wrestling video), like, "COME ONNNN LOOK HOW MUCH CUTER I AM THAN WHATEVER YOU'RE DOING HOW CAN YOU RESIST THIS LITTLE RED BELLY"
