I really like this, his colorings must be so pretty in real life. =) I'm not too keen on birds, though I do have a cockatiel of my own that I've grown fond of. Though she isn't used to me yet and still has a bit of an attitude. She's getting there, though. I notice that with birds, though... even if you don't do much they'll love you and then hate everyone else. D: They're like cats or something.

I also notice one of the most popular bird names is Merlin. O3o Though with him this seems like a very fitting name, given how he's colored.

thank you! :D Personally I think he's much prettier in person. He's got these small patches of white on him. He came to me with the name Speckles, and that just didn't fit. He kinda of reminds me of an old man, thus the name Merlin. I think he's claimed me as his mate so he feels like he has to defend me and fight off everyone else. But yeah, cockatiels are strange birds. I think they're a little slow in the head. xD
