Description
Maui in the foreground, Winter in the back. Winter has no problem being aroudn the 'tiels, and even seems to view them as 'safe'; on a number of occasions when released to fly to the cages after spending time with my wife reading in the bedroom, she's actively aimed for one of the cockatiels, which needless to say is very startling for the poor 'tiels when she lands on them! Budgies often land and fumble over one another, so the fact that she does this says she sees the 'tiels as being on her level.Related content

She's white with gray markings. You can't see so well here, but we call her Winter because she looks like a snow drift. All of the markings that would normally be black or blue or something else are there, but they're pale gray, so you have to look closely. It makes her very unique. The cockatiel is Maui, our oldest bird at the moment (or the one with us the longest -- Vinnie may be older, but came to us only recently).

naaaww exactly how old are they?
My oldest is Doffen, and he is around 7 years old. My next was TΓΈffen. but she only reached 3 : (, Then its Dusken who became 2 this year. I have had two budgies, but they both died young (1 and 2 years old) All birds that has died in our family, has been females...and it breaks my heart to dont know why, and what we are doing wrong..

Well, Maui is ten or eleven, I forget exactly, and Vinnine is around that age, but we're not as certain since he was owned by another first. Luna is four or five. Now Sunny, the cockatiel my wife's parents have, is maybe twenty-one or twenty-two, a truly venerable age for a cockatiel!
