It's been quite a trip how Dede the conure and our newest bird, has integrated herself into the pecking order here at the birdhaus (pun definitely intended.) She is not at all shy, and she and Boomer, my guy and the top bird here, have a bit of a rivalry going on. In this picture it plays itself out quite visibly, with Boomer claiming the top spot on the outside of Davey's cage (Davey is barely visible behind the bars), while Dede acts nonplussed.
Birds are really not too different from people. There are social structures which play out in conflicts and then quiet into truces. It's a nonstop show.
