None of my birds is so trusting that I feel able to take that liberty! I poke my cats, though.

I do a little bird-poking, although I'm really more into head-tapping.

Alex usually tolerates it but lately she's been like this:

Lucy on the other hand, tolerates taps on the head or beak... That's about it for poking.

I used to do it a lot with my black capped lory. He'd spin around and roll on to his back with his feet attacking me :roll:

Wish my wife would let me keep one or a few in the house to play with. I don't get to do much poking as it is now with all my birds out in the aviary...
