Meet Alex, the cockatiel who sounds like a dinosaur

A small molting bird with colorful feathers makes screeching sounds when he wants to be scratched on its head. He sounds like a baby dinosaur. He pulls on his feathers with his beak to get them to come out faster. #cockatiels #birds #pets

A hand gently holds a small bird's head as it rests on someone's shoulder.

This persistent Cockatiel likes someone to scratch him on his head. He makes screeching noises like a tiny little dinosaur.

A colorful little cockatiel likes to have someone pet him and scratch his head. The bird makes a screeching noise like it’s a baby dinosaur.

The lady pets and comforts him while he molts. Feathers fly when he shakes his head. He bows his head so she will keep scratching.

Cockatiels act like their feathers itch when they molt. They pull on the ones they can reach. They molt a couple of times a year.

The lady pulls the orange feathers on the Cockatiel’s head back. Underneath, you can see his tiny little ears. The feathers keep the ears hidden.

The lady gives him a little seed for a treat. The bird looks happy as it eats its snack and shakes his head in approval.
