POWs have a reputation for being calm and mellow so I didn't really expect him to do much more than sit on a perch looking pretty. But he has loads of personality. He sings his weird princess songs and bounces around pinning his eyes and looking maniacal, and he likes to throw things around. I have to watch out when he's on the kitchen table to make sure he doesn't throw glassware down onto the ceramic-tile floor. Mostly he sings to himself but sometimes he sings to the tiel chicks, who aren't impressed at all. He doesn't interact with me directly all that much but he's doing it more and more. I've only had him for about three months, and for the last couple of months I've been up to my eyeballs in baby cockatiels so I haven't had too much time to work on bonding with him.

We could call Dweezil a prince, just for the heck of it. He acts like he owns the place, it seems. I've heard that POWs are good at mimicking words and sounds. Has he picked up anything, yet? He sounds like a playful boy, alright. This is a strange question, but if you were somehow in possession of a female POW, would you breed them? Because if by some chance, you do end up breeding POWs along with cockatiels, I would totally buy one from you.

Indeed, I'm a fan of naturally colored POWs, but I also like the white mutation. I don't know what it is about me with birds that are completely, or mostly white-feathered, but I do think they're quite beautiful. I think colorful parrots like POWs look best with their natural coloring, though.

Indeed, POWs are very pretty. They have some strange looking color mutations though. This is too cute. I love it! Did you finally find a phoenix icon for the 50,000 post goal?
