Cutest pets: black cockatoo plays with a goffins on a cockatoo play date

Yesterday I skipped out on Wordpress seminars to have a play date with my goffins cockatoo Boo. It's been a while since Boo last saw his black palm cockatoo friend, and he was so excited. They played together on the floor and shared toys. Every time the black cockatoo turned her back on him, Boo would pull her tail so that she'd give him attention. It was so cute!
I edited this in iMovie with the canned music.

Palm cockatoos are probably the most beautiful animals in the world IMO. So gorgeous.

[@kylefraser6456]

IMO they're probably the scariest

[@jupiterjones7526]

Goffins have a personality 20x larger than thier size lol 😂😂😂

[@TheBirdyBabe]

OMG they totally do! lol :-P

[@RegianeScarpati]

LOL ...

[@erint.643]

+TheBirdyBabe I gotcha

[@viktoriadimpitouzi3651]

the black cockatoo is a palm cockatoo

[@julieankhan.2801]

Most cockatoos do

[@cathy_p637]

Awww, Boo wanted to play soooo bad and he tried every nice way he could think of. Very sweet.

[@MaxxsMummy]

The black too is beautiful but your goffins is something else! Talk about sweet natured & so pretty. What a little character, he tried sooooooo hard to make the big birdy like him, bless his heart.

[@JohnSmith-nh7og]

Goffin Cockatoos are like the dollar store version of Moluccan cockatoos

[@TheBirdyBabe]

No, they're like Moluccans on crack + meth + caffein lol

that's a beautiful black bird

I like it.

OMG the music is driving me crazy. Please no more

[@Jason97]

Still better than "Paralyzer" by Finger Eleven.

[@sulejmaniapologist]

[The Crow's Nest] TV No, that song is good, it was simply overused back in 2008 - 2011, this music is from fucking hell

[@deladrin2.0]

It’s not even a bad song necessarily. It’s just sooo loud in comparison to the people and birds in this video. I think it’s too confusing with being able to hear the talking but not being to make out anything being said.

[@sublita]

Volume off and you easily solve the problem

[@TheFox517]

@@deladrin2.0 No, it IS terrible. Why do people even use these kinds of songs?

[@Joy-is-me]

"Those are MY toys, you can't play with them". "Here's a toy you can play with - HA FOOLED YOU!!!" They weren't playing they were challenging each other..!

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

The Goffin’s outsmarted the Palm Cockatoo, by acting as if he wanted the other toy, then letting the black have it... If I remember correctly from last time I watched it - so funny!

[@sammir6415]

Boo is such a character he's so playful n cute 💖

[@cantthinkofname7804]

boo is thinking if i sneek up i can take the toy for myself!!

[@MrJinscoe]

Lol such cheeky and beautiful birds! 😁😁😚😚🐦🐦

[@premvali86]

all he wants is her toy. she can crack him up with that beak. brave guy lol. nice owner comments, knowing when they might fight

[@syrenawebb2605]

oh my gooosh! the black palm Cockatoo is so adorable! and then there is the little Boo, who is being a naughty-butt intimidating the poor big birdy, ha-ha! so freaking cuuute!

[@emersonurbina8042]

That palm cockatoo is gorgeous

[@crashq8784]

Remind me of the corella's here, playing on the ground, the wild ones are just as crazy as your little goffin and about as mischievious. There are flocks of them around here in the hundreds (or more) and they deck out all the trees in white, screeching utter nuttiness - love em.

[@TheBirdyBabe]

That must be so amazing to see!

[@elvisjohnson1208]

You sure are having a good time. They are beautiful. I never saw one that's black! Wow!!!!!

[@rukagi]

the goffin was attacking the black parrot ;V

[@islandbirdw]

Boo is THE MOST ADORABLE BIRD! She’s so playful and fun loving what an especially special bird!

[@josefzack4617]

that goffins cockatoo is more persistent than an insurance salesman .

[@kathleenhorn2441]

Cockatoo wants to share. Sweet.

[@annewhite4392]

You often say Boo can be an ass****, but he is the cutest one. Love, love this video.

[@stephaniethomas627]

OMG This so so adorable! I am just learning obsessively about these birds and it is amazing to me how SMART they are!Perfect music for the interaction between those two. Both BEAUTIFUL BIRDS! Thanks for sharing. It made my day!

Thanks :)

[@seona64]

Awesome play date....they are both beautiful birds.

[@josefzack4617]

oh my gosh that black palm cockatoo is so beautiful. industrious too with his [her?] toy. the goffin is a goffin. huge personality for such a small cockatoo!

[@miniandcooper9373]

The white one is so silly and adorable :D

[@daverodrigues877]

lol awesome cockatoo shirt, and i love when boo steals the toy and chucks it back into his stuff pile.

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

I love watching how the goffin’s gives the black the red tape roll, to trick it to give the other toy back. Not stupid, that little Goffin’s❗️❗️❗️👏👏👏👏☺️

[@Brett.1984]

Gosh those two are incredible animals. I love the little nub crest. I have an umbrella and she is mischievous just like that.

[@deannekliene2673]

Look at the eyes on that too! Never seen that before! 😀😂 They're like two 2 year olds fighting!

[@thecatatemyhomework]

Very enjoyable. You don't need the annoying music. We can't hear what is being said.

[@cherylmaloney8841]

aww both are gorgeous ... I have a Goffin's Cockatoo she is such a little doll :-)

[@nancydarling4918]

Really cute bird video. Thanks for filming.

[@poppykok5]

A D O R A B L E...Two such beautiful animals...The Goffin's reminds me of my little 11 lb. dog who wants so BADLY to engage in play with larger dogs, but he doesn't quite have the confidence yet... ^_^

[@TheBirdyBabe]

lol! Yup! Boo's butt-up body language is playful and curious. He's been socializing almost weekly with the black cockatoo, so they're familiar with each other. Last week, he interacted with an umbrella cockatoo who'd been raised with goffins, and FINALLY got to lick a black beak. He totally doesn't know his size, and somewhere I have photos of him preening an exceptionally mellow Moluccan... I have to really watch him, though, because he IS so fearless :-/

[@k9handlerusmarine185]

So cute ♡♡♡♡

[@rockinrowdy13]

Beautiful Black Palm 'Too! My Goffins is best buds with my Blue Fronted 'Zon :-)

[@SuperSeagull12]

I like the music, dunno why people are complaining.

[@violetfantasy2537]

I'm late, but it's because the music is used in a ton of other videos. It's default music that comes with default Apple editing apps.

[@kimmieb8376]

Boo is so cute!

[@loveyourparrot_]

Such a fun flock! We have a Blue-Fronted Amazon named Boo. SOO cute!!!!

[@llmiller8062]

that goffin is sooo cool

That was the cutest thing I've ever seen....make me think twice about getting a pet bird.

Beautiful birds!

[@kaelgrecian2612]

Aww, how adorable! Goffins are so cute!

[@sammir6415]

Black cockatoos are scary looking

[@TheWheelofLife100]

Birds are more happier flying around in their natural habitat,rather than locked up in somebody's living room,just my opinion.

[@ihatehandleswtf]

Many bird owners, especially those who own a BLACK PALM COCKATOO (costing $10,000 or more) will take good care of their parrots. They live longer, and are just as happy if not more living with people. I understand the concern, but as someone who knows a lot about birds and has owned some for about 4 years now, I know that they have wonderful lives with people if the owners aren't D***s who buy wild caught birds and keep them locked up all day

[@jinxgirl5]

That was the cutest game of keepaway ever with that pink tape XD

[@Zacht1980]

Bird people are weird. Maybe even a little Cuckoo. 🐦🤭

Jon VAvon Jesse fab please do us all a favor keep your hateful mouth off these threads my feet were just a dangling this was the happiest video I've seen all day and I watch tons tons I couldn't get enough of it thank you to the owner

[@xylusia2433]

Sorry for being a bird noob but what does it mean when a cockatoo's head feathers point up? Is it like aggression or curiosity?

[@TheBirdyBabe]

It really depends on the context. In this situation, Boo was being playful... the black palm cockatoos are difference since their crests are almost always up.

[@fishboots6913]

its when they are suprised, angry, defensive, or happy . we were all a bird noob once (its basically when they show emotion. if they spread there wings Stand back lol)

[@zer0studi0s37]

They get excited

[@birddemon1820]

They do it for... Everything. Happy? Crest goes up! Startled? Crest goes up and screams get loud! Angry? Up it goes! Excited? Up with the crest! You just have to check the body language.

I have never seen a black cockatoo...! So Pretty ! ( even though I am deathly afraid of birds ! )

i wouldn't let my smaller bird near that even if i thought they were friends...

CUTEST THING EVER 😊😊😊😊😊😚😚😚😚🐤🐤

[@themoonlitquill]

So cuuuuuute! The black too is beautiful, but wasn't her beak a bit too long? I loved how the little guy kept trying to share toys with her, that was precious and highly intelligent behavior! Cockatoos never cease to amaze me!!

[@ianfinrir8724]

The Moonlit Quill Black Cockatoos beaks can't fully close

[@giovanna722]

​@@ianfinrir8724 It looks like a Palm Cockatoo.

[@wanderingelkless]

I love, love, LOVE this video! 😊❤️❤️

[@larryagrapides9790]

I love birds!

[@vickyabramowitz4919]

There are elements of cuteness in this vid but I mostly found it to be dangerous for the Goffins Too. I kept thinking that the Black Palm Too could kill that Goffins with one bite of its beak before the humans could separate them. Scary! As a former parrot breeder and human companion to many different species of parrots, I would never recommend this type of interaction between parrots with such a disparity in beak sizes.

[@TheBirdyBabe]

This is about 60 seconds, with cuts, out of about an hour. They've been playing together for over a year now... but normally, this is a bad idea. I would never let Boo this close to a Moluccan or other much larger bird!

[@QueenOfPessimism]

Wow, i didn’t know Palm Cockatoos could be kept as pets! They are so cool looking; they look like little dinosaurs. Aren’t they and the Hyacinth Macaw the two biggest of the cockatoos? Or is it that the Palm and Hyacinth both have huge ass beaks?

[@TheBirdyBabe]

I think that they're the largest of the cockatoo species, but this one is on the small side. Hyacinth Macaws are the largest macaws that are kept as pets. I think there's only a few hundred palm cockatoos that aren't in zoos in the USA.

[@edwinamcgee7757]

What does it mean when Boo approaches the Black Cockatoo with his tail feathers all fanned out? Boo is so funny, trying to corner the other bird into playing with him haha. Have they started to get along better since this video has been posted?

[@TheBirdyBabe]

Yes and no... Neila's mom doesn't like to take ANY chances. I think Boo is just being cautiously playful, his spread out tail feathers mean that he's not sure but more on the playful/curious side than aggressive. Boo DOES play rough though!

[@GenXstacker]

One of them has a pair of vice grips attached to his face.

[@Liuhuayue]

What a literal party animal! :D

[@Sylmarys24]

2:20. The Cockatoo's face of disapproval.

[@AvgasLL]

The music soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo uplifting!!!

They are so cute. I have got 4 rainbow lorikeets. Greetings, Daniela😉

[@1Missyrea]

So adorable! 😊

[@daughterofthemosthigh1188]

Cutiesss~~~~

[@nephilaedulis2073]

Palm cockatoos are a little more wild than most cockatoos. They prefer each other's company than they do that of humans in most cases. If you want a cuddly pet black cockatoo get a red or yellow tailed cockatoo from australia

[@whacckk]

Aww, so cute! 04:00 omg! 😍

[@theartofmimizaphiratos6056]

Adorable

[@FreeBirdChannel]

Black cockatoo and goffin are endemik (native bird) from Indonesia, in here the birds is limited range and illegal hunting, i hope in there you can breed and conservation the bird

[@MiniAngelMom]

For who ever is trying to say that it is a macaw. That is a Black Palm Cockatoo (Probosciger aterrimus), here is a link for you to research this beautiful bird. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_cockatoo

[@ninapearman]

Taminbar Corella and Palm Cocky in the US? Who'd have thought?

[@dogcrazy25]

That black cockatoo has a major beak. Dont you have another toy available for the griffon? Also, I agree with others, please no more music I'd rather listen to the birds.

[@angrycinnabon2956]

She stopped using the music. Rest assured

[@islandbirdw]

This is THE CUTEST! This Goffins is so playful and the palm is kind of realizing she just wants to play. When Goffins offers one side of the ring. Precious footage. And for you picky people I frankly was so into watching this amazing and cute behavior I didn’t notice music. Be kind or move on haters!

[@Malin6789]

Aww 💕
