Kitchen Friends

The birds like to help me tidy up the kitchen. There are always shiny and interesting friends to meet!

** Why does Alex honk? **
When I got Alex as a baby, he would bob his head and squeak. I would bob my head and squeak back at him and say “hello Alex!” Eventually, he started to mimic me mimicking him, and over time it just got more and more exaggerated until it became the honk you see today.
** What is he saying before the honk? **
Technically, he’s saying “hello Alex.” But it’s also a bit of “hello Dommi” for his son Dominic, and a bunch of other names of other birds I’ve owned. Because Alex has spent most of his life with lots of other birds, they would tend to teach each other to talk rather than listen to me, so he’s never been very good at speaking clearly.
** Is Alex Lonely? **
I often get comments from people who feel sorry for Alex because they think he only has plush toys for company. He actually lives with another real bird, Dominic, who is also his son! I used to have a whole aviary of cockatiels but had to say goodbye to most of them when I moved into an apartment. Dominic had been living with a friend for a while but came back to keep his dad company when Alex’s mate, Tina, sadly passed away in 2016.
** Thinking of getting your own cockatiel? **
I know Alex is cute and we all love to see him honk, but keep in mind that parrots are a big responsibility and require special care. Alex himself is almost 20 years old. That’s a lot of time, money, noise and poop! It’s important to do your research and think very carefully about whether a pet bird is right for you, and whether it’s right for the bird!

Dear sweet baby Alex will be forever on the internet and loved by all. Much love and scritches aplenty to Anika and Dommi. The honk will always be stronk in our hearts.

[@Qira.]

I love how Dominic's the birb equivalent of a child looking at their parents and wondering, am I adopted?

[@archaicvenom]

NMX12 hes actually alexs son but yeah it does

[@kryptkeeper4510]

[@kreep182]

Dominic: has my dad lost his mind?

[@KindredKeepsake]

The way he strutted into view, silently judging ol' Alex made my freaking day. ;w; Poor Dom. He'll have to stage an intervention sooner or later. Where is Dr. Phil!? Now that my dad's gotten real into cooking, I wonder if he's ever done this stuff.

[@kreep182]

7BlackSheep hahaha yeah i can totally see this happening. Dominic will be like: "help me dr. Phill, my dad's addiction to honking has gone way out of control. It even drove my mom away" Then Dr. Phil will be like: " the honking needs to stop, Mr. Alex"

[@KindredKeepsake]

Mohammed Kortam As if Alex would comply. Too much to lose. ;-; His kitchen friends are the only ones who understand him. (-dies-)

[@kreep182]

7BlackSheep haha yeah he will be like " you know what baldy, how bout you cash me outside"

[@chantalincandela7047]

I love Alex's honks but he's also got a really pretty "regular" song too!

[@ashleylujano444]

My bird has learned to honk and now he does it at 6:00 am every day to wake me up, you have started a honking bird army >:)

[@AlexTheHonkingBird]

I don't know whether to say sorry or you're welcome

I can imagine Dominic saying “my father is senile but I still love him”

[@shipgirllover]

"Dominic's concern" gave me a chuckle

[@dub2459]

I love how that one walks like a winding toy

[@drubio1062]

The toaster reminded me of an old episode of AFHV where a woodpecker was trying to drill through a steel electric pole....

[@KindredKeepsake]

Some birds don't know when to give up! o_o

[@dianezimmerman4434]

Woodpeckers do that to attract mates, too. And some discover that metal sounds carry further. I was home from college once, and I woke up 1 morning sure someone was playing the piano. My dad had went outside early and he saw the bird pecking the tv antenna.

[@johnyskar]
