A Vocal Cockatiel Rejects a Pudgy Plush Version of Himself When It Gets Much Too Close for Comfort

A wonderfully vocal and friendly cockatiel named Alex was very happy to meet to a pudgy plush version of himself so long as a comfortable distance was kept between the two of them. Once the plushy was moved closer to him, Alex immediately jumped back and sent out an alert signal.

Alex loves making friends, but sometimes those friends get too close for comfort!

Alex had previously met this husky doppelgänger in 2014, but there was the safety of the cage between the two.
