About six months ago, Emma would come to my arm if I was giving out sunflower seeds. However, ever since we had the falling out just after that time, she has refused to do it.

It's interesting that she will come to the back of my hand if she's on the floor, but won't come onto my hand or arm in return for a sunflower seed.

I have tried holding my perching hand under the hand with the seed, not requiring her to get on it, but just be near it. However, she needs that perching hand a long way off before she will take the seed from the fingers of the other hand.

Whatever happened when we had the "falling out", I don't think she has forgiven me for it, and that particular trick she had learned, she's just going to withhold it from me, maybe forever .
