Having a Goofy "kissy bird" myself, i've noticed several changes in how and when he decides to repeat our routine. .. For starters, it used to be that he'd simply imitate my kissing his beak or head, and he would do this almost every time. .. As time went by, his kissies began to develop more meaning, such as, thank you for my favorite food or treat, or all is well for night night time. .. He would even go so far as to make subtle kissy sounds whenever he was scared, like at the vets, or during forced bathing. .. There were times however, he'd absolutely refuse to return the gesture. .. Why? .. I think the reasons could be many. .. Obviously, at least with my Goofy lovebird, kissies have taken on several different meanings. .. For instance, seldom now will he return a kissy just for a kissy, but rather, will somehow make me work for it. .. It appears, or so it seems, this kind gesture for which i've spent years to procure, has evolved by way of a lovebirds mind, into a method of communicating thoughts and desires, even if their not all "desirable".

Could it be the stay at grandma's is Susu's reason for withholding kissie's? .. Or might she be searching for a better reason to give them? .... Hmmmmm.
