I saw this asked on another instance, thought I’d ask it here and I’ll post my response from there in the comments as I think it felt cathartic.

Doesn't need to be a life or death situation, just any moment in your life where you found yourself saying "Holy shit, I can't believe this is happening!"

Here he is sitting happily on my head. He would sit up there and cheerfully root through my hair looking for bugs, or when I walked the dogs he'd sit up there and yell at everyone we walked past. I will upload a video of him when I get home and am on wifi a little later.

I can’t cope. I’m sooo jealous right now. Look how fluffy he is.

One day I too hope to take a walk with a bird on my head as it shouts at people.

I will look forward to a video of the little fella. It’s evening here now so I’m going to be offline for 8-10 hours.

The funniest part was how distinctive his voice was. You know when a bunch of birds are chirping in a tree? I could pick him out from inside the house calling for me to come get him in a single chirp. He also obviously a great sense of humor, and when he'd stick his face in the kitchen window to tell me to come get him, his face would be like 😁!!! It really was funny.

Thanks for sharing.

I can’t quite believe how chill he is with that dog stood there salivating.

He thought it was hilarious to tease the dog. Dog hates birds now though.
