Sydney is17 years old, we have had him since he was 6 weeks old. We miss him a lot, He is friendly, does sometimes fly onto a stranger’s shoulder, but not often. He is a normal grey. He is banded but I never looked at it to see what it says. He says “gimmee kissy”, “hey syd”, “pretty bird”, sings part of Andy Griffith show theme, part of Laurel & Hardy theme, and sings something else our other cockatiel who flew out at same time sang when we got him, I have no idea what it is. He likes to eat corn, peas, and green beans,eating the inside of them. Loves millet spray, also pellets, but they are not his steady diet. His steady diet is cockatiel seed, he also loves noodles, rice, potatoes. Especially with cheese or tomatoe sauce. He loves the “birdy in the mirror” in the bathroom. For the first 4 years of his life he was our only bird, so the mirror became his best friend (besides us, we are very bonded). He also has a mirror in his cage and play area, and loves bells to play with. He likes to have his neck gently scratched with your finger.He is the sweetest, most lovable little guy. He gives us kisses and seems to understand everything he’s told. Please, if someone sees him or knows someone who found a cockatiel, please call us. He’s healthy but at his age, I don’t know if he can take being outside this long. The last 3 days have been warm but pretty windy. We are expecting rain tomorrow night. I just hope someone is taking care of him. Also too, he sometimes has watery droppings, also normal ones. This has been going on since before he was a year old, apparantly normal for him. Thanks for any info on him. I am posting a similar ad for our other cockatiel who flew away at same time. thanks, Pat
