Easiest way to tell Tusa and comet apart. Whichever one is not checking their feet is tusa.
lmao!
Lol
Angel Scinta T
Lol! I tell them apart pretty easily. Comet has a fully black beak and is more yellow but Tusa has a half white beak and is more blue/green.
Really cute to see Tusa fluff up, when he's with Dave. We see a lot of fluffy comet, but now there is fluffy Tusa as well. :)
This is my most favorite type of video EVER, when you talk about every little detail of each bird’s quirks and idiosyncrasies that make up individual personalities. Thank you!
When Jamie walks out and Tusa freaked everyone of the animals in the room just looked at my cockatiel, because he was raised with Macaws and copies their flock call/scream. My teil just looked at them like that's not me lol
When you first get a macaw. The noises are scare af. You twitch every time they make a tiny lil “ra” then eventually you will not even notice and someone comes over and they try a get away from u as fast as they can
Nice to see Dave doing these.
He's like HOW DARE YOU! when you left
He's soooo beautiful. Almost a rainbow bird, just missing purple in his feathers.
When Tusa went upside down I just had to squeal!!!! IT WAS JUST SOOOOOOO CUUUUUTTTTTTTEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
The people who disliked are jealous of how amazing Tusa is...
They could be dislexic? Or small children playing around on the 'puter.
Maybe they just dislike the idea of wild animals in captivity. I know this couple take very good care of their birds, but people are still allowed to feel these animals should not be pets.
Incanus Olórin true. Some birds are bred for captivity but your absolutely right
Kaylee Thanks and sorry if I wasn’t clear. I didn’t mean to say that these birds are wild caught. I know they are all captive bred, but even if they never set foot on the jungle, they are still wild in the sense that they aren’t domesticated. Their genes and therefore their instincts are still the same as those of parrots born in the wild, because, unlike dogs, chickens, horses and cows, we haven’t selectively bred them for thousands of years.
Incanus Olórin you are absolutely correct. Lots of people don’t like zoos for that reason. All I can say is that if Birdtricks birds don’t get into the wild, they are living the absolute best life they can with them.
Tusa is the cutest❤️ thanks for sharing, it’s interesting how birds have random favourite people, my cockatiels prefer my dad over me😆
Love ur videos @justbirbvideos
ornithology dude thanks so much😊
Your birds are so adorable. I had conures for more than 25 yrs., while birds are a lot of work they are so smart and loving. You two are such good bird owners.
I need more Tusa and Blueberry videos!!!!!!!! So cute!!!!
7:26
Ah, the soothing sounds of nature.
Wow Capri skydiving and you scuba diving and your lifestyle with your birds is really cool and inspiring - get the best out of life 🥰🙌
Tusa is so beautiful! I love the Q & A video so that we can learn more about them.
He seems like the perfect bird to bridge the gap for Capri from the smaller birds to the larger birds. A more mellow one to start with.
You must have very chill neighbors! Tyler Nolan's neighbors harass Toruk and full on taunt her to scream ALL DAY
Yeah no, those are just bad neighbors.
You guys seem to be full of love for each other.🥰
It was so interesting seeing one of your birds say no to a step-up! That makes me feel better about my relationship with my bird. Despite being her favorite, she's picky about when and where I ask her to step-up.
He looks like a big Sun Conure and I love it
How funny. One of my Caiques is very touchy-feely. She has to touch my clothing and jewelry. She doesn’t pull, bite or hurt. She just does kiss sounds and an occasional wolf whistle. Out of my 4 Caiques she is the most bonded to me. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.❤️❤️❤️
I actually understand the poop curiosity. Its really hard to find what different parrot poop looks like - and thank god I learned how sloppy lineolated parakeet poop is bc that makes a huge difference to me and would affect everything. My budgies poop was tiny could be easily cleaned off of anything.
Tusa is one of the most beautiful macaws ever❤️ it’s very interesting that birds have favorite people
You could say he's fallen for him.
Tusa and Comet are such beautiful macaws 🦜
I knew this video was going to be about Tusa! Haven't had any videos about him in forever so was hoping to see him
Yeah me too!
Haven't checked your channel in a while, i am impressed with the new montage quality.
his colours are so amazing. the photos you guys get of the birds are always stunning. really enjoy seeing their photos especially the flight photos
Yay Tusa! Great to see a video with both of you and Tusa
You guys have so much insight to birds it's great hearing your answers to the questions.
Awe he is a really good bird💙 y’all make amazing birds, y’all are so good with them!!!
I want to compliment the editing in this video ! Very interesting to watch with where u chose the cuts. 💝
Wonderful video! I was glad that you showed Tusa going back to the aviary!
Very interesting! I love these videos!
Dave's humor is cracking me up! 🤣 yall are the best
I really love this video's it always helps me with my birds aswell. Thanks so much for all the things you do to make people understand that birds have feelings and isn't just a ornament
Tusa is awesome! I really enjoyed the back and forth between the both of you answering questions. LOL at the poop question/answer hahaha! Also it's so cool to see Tusa go totally on his back now. I remember videos of you starting the training of that trick and how slow and drawn out it was. Just goes to show that persistence pays off :D
I enjoyed this format
Great job,answering questions about Tusa , awesome channel 👍
I have to work a little harder to be his favourite! Tusa’s noise was like darn right mama lol
Tusa seems like total cool guy
Thank you so much. I love learning from tou! Just like your birds
Yeeeess, finally😄 Handsome Tusa😍
I absolutely loved this video!!! Gosh how loud his call was 😲 I had to quickly turn down my volume lol
Aww Tusa’s so cute
Yall have a great day thanks for sharing
This is soo cool lol. I’d like to see more of Dave training in your videos. Great job I enjoyed it 😊
I would LOVE to see all the photos on the wall behind you! Y’all live such an interesting life, I would love to see those🥰
Thank you so much for showing me what it’s like not being the preferred person. I’ve been struggling with our Cape to like me as much as my husband. I feel so much better knowing I’m not the only one. I’ve been doing all the training and it’s helped my bond with our bird but it breaks my heart when she wants to cuddle my husband. I love your Q and A’s so helpful and informative.
This channels amazing always look forward to thus channel u make me realy want a bird
So fun hearing about Tusa and your different takes on your relationships with him. My plan was to adopt another bird (it's been some years since my last... a Quaker) within a year... but things aren't working out yet. I won't do it until I have the right conditions and bird. I want a Gray but am open to others. I believe when it's right it will happen and until then I love living and learning vicariously through your family.💖🦅
Did you end up getting a gray? I love African Grays.
This is a great video!
I’m really glad Dave mentioned that he’s never seen Tusa hormonal. I’ve never really seen my conure hormonal either, but with so many videos talking about it, I thought I was just missing the signs. Good to know that there just might not be any!
I’m impressed with my cockatiel. I thought he would fly away hearing that sound in a panic but just totally ignored it and continued to sing to me. Also it’s nice to see Dave in this video with his bonded parrot.
I like the back and forth between questions. ☺
The noise he makes in the truck is macaw 🦜 for “ Are we there yet? “
I said it before, I will say it again: Tusa is my hero! Love all your birds, Tusa is my favorite. Working on Tusa, Comet flying art from one of your videos.
I was the someone who asked if 60/40 was hard to maintain, and yeah,i was lookin foward to this one bc Tusa is the one i feel like we don’t know too much about.
And i remember, Jamie,you were training him to go on his back,and how determined you were,even training him in your dramatic stage makeup,before you were gonna go out on stage,and then when you finally got Tusa to it,you did that happy dance,yaaay!! He finally had gotten it! :D
I didn’t know it caused an issue,haha. But hey,you guys are bird trainers,i’m sure you knew what to do about it.
🤣 that full macaw scream always makes me laugh. I tease and ask what other bird they swallowed. 🧡💚
Lol the 60/40 thing made me smile. When my partner was alive we had several cats. Dumo(aka Thundercat) who he rescued as a teeny kitten, Laza a foreign white, Tombi a tortie Burmese, Ilahle a red point siamese, and Madiba, a cream Burmese. Now, I'm a cat person.... I love them, they love me, but Madiba was always HIS cat. Officially so was Ilahle, but he turned into my cat, but not Madiba. My partner always used to say that ALL our cats were mine, but Madiba was his first, THEN mine. After my partner passed away suddenly, Madiba really missed him, but over time I've become an acceptable substitute I think. I still have Madiba and Ilahle today
Jamie: «He’s the only one that does it, out of the whole entire flock» (Tusa): «Oooooh». How cute are those squeeks?☺️
I'm happy that you accepted that Tusa likes your husband more then you I've seen so many couples get like jealous fight over animals picking and choosing them
Oh yes. So true. I'm a little guilty myself .. when our cats meander over to the new person in the household rather than me or cuddle in somebody else's lap.. but that's because they only used to do that with me and it made me feel really special haha. It's stupid and I don't actually get mad or anything, but I'm still like *fake gasp* traitor! XD
Its different with birds, cuz remember they are flock animals/birds, cats and dogs are not flock animals so it's pretty hard to compare a bond you get with a parrot verses other animal, i mean no disrespect, i love all animals/and birds. Also parrots are exotic and not domesticated like a dog or cat, they are wild animals, the parrots.♥️and boy what great companions! Lol
@@carolhartley4448 I know birds and cats are different. I wasn't referring to that haha. I'm saying you can still get jealous over your pet "choosing" somebody else over you regardless of what pet it is, unless it's like dogs or something. Dogs will love anybody haha. But cats are independent and very picky, they won't cuddle with just anybody. Lots of them will give the cold shoulder to 99% of people and become complete sweetheart babies for the other 1%. My family used to have a cat called Ruby like this, she was super grumpy and only liked one of our family members, would only purr for him and go to him etc. He could pick her up and she loved it, if we tried she'd claw the heck out of us xD you may not understand if you think cats aren't animals you can 'really' bond with. But they can be just as loving and bonded as a parrot
@@mimthyss oh i didn't mean that towards your situations, in my lifetime i have had 2 cats and yes you are right, they are different too! I miss my cat that died of old age, but i do have a bird, a conure, so yes i feel ya!♥️
@@carolhartley4448 oh I see! My bad :) aww I'm sorry about your kitty, I'm sure they're resting in peace ♥️
Wow, budgie screams are melodic by comparison
Great video. Thanks
So sweet you guys
clicked on this vid and at the end my green cheek chimed in to the sound of the sun conures haha
Awesome 😎 got my Tusa fix! I like the one on one with the birds🦜 I just think 🤔 he gets the least camera 🎥 time, but I love ❤️ them all!!!
That loud one is what we call 'going full jungle bird' lol!
Our Camelot lets that same call out every time I leave the room! Hahahah 😂😂😂
Ohhh that's such a nostalgic(?) Macaw scream at about 7:27.
A bird I used to work with (kinda) called Percy, hes a greenwing, reaaaally loved one of the other workers there. He would make that sound almost non stop all day for her, while we were all mere feet away from him.. so let's say I got used to macaw screams pretty quickly. LOL. It was kind of endearing after the initial "wOAH JESUS THATS LOUD?" Reaction. Haha!
Tusa is so cute 😊🥺🥺❤️
Tusa is so cute😍😍😍
Look so cute
Jinxy!! OK, was hoping I would see Bubba when you took Tulsa out lol! Tulsa's head and feet looked so large! Is he your largest macaw? He's just gorgeous!
Captivating toggling on your editing, nice job!
Tusa is such a cute name 🎀
omg, this was such an awesome vid!
Loved it so much! What a treat! Thank you! 💯😊💞💖
lol even though I turned the volume way down thanks to the warning, his screaming got my green cheek so worked up... XD
Wow guys I absolutely love your videos, I was just curious on how the tusa and jinx situation is going?
He be looking like a new haircut is coming his way
You guys should do a mini macaw "series" and kind of compare temperament, training, etc. To other birds you have worked with including the larger macaws to show the difference. Also to show if they are naturally easier or harder birds to have.
I think it's really cute this was a great video. I think it's funny how Dave said that you guys always pick unique names which is super true... until blueberry 😅😊😇🖤 lots of love from Pikachu and the flock to you and your flock
Haha Blueberry was all Capri's naming.
@@BirdTricks haha that's cute, and i figured! Trust me when I was a kid I wanted to name everything princess or Pikachu😂😂 funny now as a 29 year old adult I have my parrot Pikachu
Is Tusa a jealous bird? No
Is Dave a jealous bird dad? Yes. 😂
I am so curious, you kiss Tusa, and the other birds as well, do they understand that as a sign of affection or do they just tolerate it?
My macaw loved it and knew exactly what it was
I guess since they sometimes do that to other birds themselves in some way, when they clean another bird with their beak to show affectio,n they might have a good grasp of it. Birds are often not stupid.
@@metalmolisher666 when I kissed my blue and gold macaw on the cheek I always held his beak just to be safe. But he loved it. He'd kiss back even with his young. Lol
@@metalmolisher666 toung
Please, guys, don't misunderstand me I know birds are highly intelligent animals.....my question was more on what we think may not be what they like kinda thing
Hahaha I voted for Tusa! Comet seems to get just a tad bit more attention (on the channel) than Tusa, so I figured mayyyybe it would be the right answer since we need more content!!! hahaha
Good example of sounds when you the leave the room & hey you left me behind. My macaw is more burglar alarm (w/ same sound as you left me behind) when we enter room or walk by.
When Tusa yells. Rip headphone people.
Your vid had 1.9k likes. I clicked like and it turned to 2k. I’ve been on YT since the beginning, and until a week ago, that had never happened, but a week or so ago, it happened for the first time (from 999 to 1k) and now it happens again... WOW... Maybe I need to play the lottery or something...☺️
I love you!
That was loud! Lol
Can u please do a video on pigeons and doves please they are really underrated pets
Oh boy i love your videos. I so need you for help with my new 7yr old male Amazon. He was in the same home for entire time. Owners older and sick couldnt take care of him. But he falls and flaps around when getting him to step up. Not sure if he was held much. Thank god he doesnt bite at all. He has picked my husband as his favorite. Really need help with not being able to step up and not fall or us trying to get him from stand to cage at night. He will not eat any other food but pellets. He refuses to eat any nuts, veggies so hard for training. Iam in florida as well. Really need help
I'm curious how many birds do you have? Very interesting. Your videos are very informative & helpful. I have Zebra Finches & 1 parrotlet & a pair of Lovebirds.
Reminds me of Tyler Nolan's Macaw.
I voted for Tusa. When I voted, it was over 70% comet. 👀👀
I miss morgin 😢😔❤️
I'm so curious about that "car ride" squawk, my mitered conure does that.... Seems to be more towards evening time he'll just make that same noise while he's sitting me. He just sits there happy and content while making that noise (he just doesn't get louder lol).
is it a voice? Man's voice is stronger by def, also as I see he provides more freedom he doesn't push it. How he do the back twist, he holds the bir? bird knows that it's safe and has support
How do you train lay down and then into roll over? :) also best cockatiel treats for training!
It's like he's sayin "uh huh"
