13yr. old male umbrella cockatoo,
we call him Amigo!

7yr. old Goffin cockatoo, she IS Sassy!!
PG&E, (electric), has a new young man on their meter reading route. The other utility people know of Amigo and are comfortable with him, now.

I heard his truck pull in, the dogs went off. I'll always walk outside when someone comes into the yard, if I'm here. The electric pole/meter is a little ways from the house but I can see it from the deck. Here...comes...Amigo, to investigate the goings on. This guy gets out of his truck, with paperwork in hand, turns around to get back in his truck and Amigo, who at this time is setting on the roof of the truck, right next to his door, lets out his blood curdling screams, starts doing his wing flapping move, (to scare off predators) and I hear HOLY F**K!!! The guy stumbles and almost falls down!

I ran down the hill, moved Amigo off and apologized to the poor guy. He said that he almost had a heart attack. We talked for a while and Amigo came back to my shoulder. The electric man and Amigo have now been introduced. It didn't stop Amigo from following his truck up the drive, yelling the whole way! Never a dull moment...
 
That is hilarious! Amigo such a good guardatoo. :) I think it would be worth the money to install a security camera just to get all these priceless reactions on film!
