Yuuuuuuuuupppppp, they're never faster or more determined than when they're after something they KNOW they're not allowed to have, like Peachie with lorikeet food!!
Super super needy, needs to be on me every second or literally screams her head off. And has given me TWO very hard painful bites today. Geesh! Love her to death but anyone wanna babysit a needy bird? 
Nope, not me!! The little red-headed rooster's got a similar thing goin' on right now. Super needy and in my face all the time, takes about 6 attempts to leave the living room without him trying to come with me and is rather bitey too. I'm sorry Ona is doing this to you, but at least I'm not the only one!Good Lord little miss is in a mood today. She is kinda driving me insane today
Wouldn't trade it for anything.
Oh no! Lovejoy too!Nope, not me!! The little red-headed rooster's got a similar thing goin' on right now. Super needy and in my face all the time, takes about 6 attempts to leave the living room without him trying to come with me and is rather bitey too. I'm sorry Ona is doing this to you, but at least I'm not the only one!
And I wouldn't trade it for anything either
She’s too smart for her own good.
I just knew Ona would learn that one fast! She's brilliant!
I guess she was trying to share? She was biting on my husband’s hand and he was telling her “no bite, gentle”. She said something I couldn’t understand but it was clearly some sassy back talk She also mocked me after ripping the arrow key off my keyboard the other day. 
Dehydrated fruit is a VAST improvement on poop in one's water glass, which is what Fang once offered to me. Token of his esteem right there!Wanted to share some recent funny Ona moments.
The other day she dropped a piece of dehydrated fruit in my water glass and then just walked off!
She has started occasionally mocking/backtalking when told no
She is still making demands to go out in the sunroom when she wants to by screaming or saying “outside”.
What a personality she has!
Did I hear her say her name at about the 25 second mark?
I think so! She does say “Ona bird” and “pretty bird” when she’s chatting/singing sometimes.Awwwwwwwwwwww, she's so sweet!!
Probably at hearing “mommy bye bye”. I will tell her and show her this everyday until we leave. Worth a try.
Ona's a smart girl, she's probably 10 steps ahead of you and has worked it out already! Is she going to be sat by that sitter she likes so much?I put this together to try to explain to her our upcoming vacation. I swear she looked upset when I was explaining it

Yes, she will be going to stay with her!
Oh that's great, it can be SO hard to find a good sitter, let alone one that you and your bird both like. I hope you all have a wonderful time on your respective vacays!
He said she even used her clear, high-pitched voice!
Oh I'd be jealous as heck too!! Seems my flock always save their cutest antics for my hubby, guess cos they don't see much of him during the week, so it's like he's "king of the kids" when he's here. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO not fair!!According to my husband he heard Ona chattering in her sleep cage last night so he went in and said "Daddy loves you Ona" and she said back "Ona loves you".
I'm so jealous!
