Not Archie's Day Today

[Wigwig]

Earlier when Bikbok was in the run (my cockatiel), he went full nesting mode and wouldn't let Archie in the little hutch and kept chasing him round the run attacking him.
So we removed Bikbok, and so a bit later, this pheasant turned up and was hanging around outside the house, and Archie was watching.
Then the pheasant noticed Archie, so came over, and floofed up and did the really loud pheasant call, and Archie ran at the speed of light and dived UNDER the hutch and would not come out until I went to bring him inside.
The pheasant was really smug about poor Archie's reaction and hung around for ages, over half an hour. I guess its Birds torture Archie day today.



Outside my window!

Poor Archie!

Love the name Bikbok.

My sister named him, after a clothing store she went to in Sweden! He is in a naughty mood today, he landed on my cake the moment I finished putting ganache on it so it had bird prints and his feet were sticky! luckily my mother caught him and washed his feet. He took over an hour to get in his cage to go to bed as well

Poor Archie. Perhaps tomorrow will be a better day for him.

Poor guy. That Pheasant is a hard one!

Birds seem to have such fun bullying him. When we had geese, they would waddle round and then rush at the run to scare him then honk all pleased with themselves.
What is funny is that Archie is over twice the size of Bikbok, and sometimes Archie likes to chase and bully him. He could just crush him if he wanted, I don't know why they fight sometimes.
They do actually love each other though, usually they are very happy and excited to see each other and behave nicely.
