She loves and trusts you, look at how dilated her eyes are! I also super enjoy both how she's turning and showing you where to go and the intense amount of pins you got off of her. I bet she was much more comfortable after this mega preen sesh. 😊

Very happy to see such thorough "preening" done by the human friend.

Just look at that face. She is such a trusting patient girl. And the way she moves her head. So cute

i love how obvious it is that she enjoys this. shes on your laptop just hangin out, whenever she wants she could leave and you give her the opportunity to do so! i also like how when she started getting fidgety you ended the video, presumably to either stop or to be able to focus more on her. its clear how well you know your birds and understand their body language, and its really lovely to see the bond you have with each other. its so sweet 🥺❤️

She is so patient I just love her. ❤️ You can tell how much she loves and trusts you ❤️❤️

She’s so sweet and appreciative, and this is so satisfying, I’d be wanting to do it ALLLL the time!

Thank you for sharing! What a beautiful girl and what a satisfying scritch! It’s lovely to see how loved she is ❤

Good little bird❤

Ouch I felt that when it went in her eye😣😣

I love how alert she was at first, unable to ignore all the shittalking in the back, but the second you moved to the head... aaawww the way those cheeks got puffy 🥰

She is precious, I need all the extra long videos after this. So satisfying 😌

So utterly absorbing and relaxing to watch❤❤ and so trusting it's beautiful to see 😊😊😊

Love those pinfeathers! Can’t stop watching it.

What a precious little sweetheart!!!! Athena is such a cute name for such a cute bird!!

You can try to find a rounded wooden tweezers or one with soft rubber over the metal. Just to be sure. If a bird gets spooked there is a big risk of it getting hurt. I have been working with birds for over 15 years and unfortunately as I like to say it, with birds, the devil is just waiting for an opportunity, better to be extra safe. Edit: also to be clear I often used very soft grip tweezers that are used for picking up insects as you can not damage the feather with those even in a bird jerks during "preening", and they also come with rounded soft tips.

Athena is a doll.

Adorable ❤

Goodness this is so relaxing to watch! If i could preen budgies for a living I probably would! Athena is amazing and enjoys the preening! 😅❤

Thankyou for being very gentle with her ♥️🥰

I wouldn't trust myself with tweezers on a budgie. I'd probably scratch their little eye! 🙈 (Also, running my fingers trough their feathers is better than therapy. 😅) What you're doing with the tweezers is an impressive skill. :)

She is beautiful 😍

This was nice to watch, the bird and you seem to be enjoying being taken care of and taking care of the other.

一日中見てられます😢❤❤❤ 可愛すぎてもう！！！！

What a sweet baby.

Awww, new sub, love these preener vids! Now I want to see a video about how you got them to trust the tweezers- my birds would never let me near ‘em with anything, lol. What a precious girl. ❤

It's so good to see how she enjoys it. It's a bless for birds when they get preened from their partner or human. Thank you for sharing this long video. I watched it several times until the end and will always come back. Thank you for sharing those videos and giving your budgies lots of love.

Adorable little face so precious

I love your birdies and your videos! Please make more! 💜🕊

This one is a little fidgety but still very trusting and liking this thorough preen.

Athena loves your grooming. She trusts you a lot. What a cute lady budgie.

Thank you for sharing this, just what I needed was going to watch one of your previous videos, he has gorgeous colours and soo trusting of you.

My two do this to each other, I always thought it was them “kissing” or just showing affection. Didn’t know there was an actual reason behind it! That’s so cool😊

So many bless its little ❤

❤ It's cute and relaxing

Oooh so many pin feathers to take care of, and such a sweet baby who is chill with the kind human doing it for her!

Great method for getting the very fine pins near the nose & beak. Athena seems a little nervous at first but I think she calms down. The male budgie you had really loved this though :)

She's beautiful.

Watching this video when I'm tired from working. So lovely❤❤

I love your videos, especially like this with no music. The longer the better, this one is much appreciated!

So cute! I love these long videos

Precious smol birb ❤️❤️❤️

What a privilege to be trusted with this task! It must feel so good to be groomed, the feather caps are probably be super itchy as they grow in.

So adorable

Beautiful bird!

Could watch this for days!!!

So patient!

Very satisfying to watch this

Ah, such a relief and so relaxing to watch for us. 🥰

I find this so soothing to watch

those eyes 🥰

This is one of the best ones. I love when u dont play music and we can hear the birds

This is so relaxing

This is like' what Push Pop Bubble is to kids... so satisfying to watch!

Best one yet!!!!

Such a good girl 💚💛

Bellissimo 😊😊😊

I love them

Thanks for this video! I am a first time bird video watcher, had no idea what was happening here and now I have watched all your videos back to back. So soothing. Love the bonding and caring. Excellent way to start my day off work stress free 🥰 Take care!

This is so soothing

So cute and nice!

She's a lovely bird and you do a good job❤

This is such great content, I never knew about the troubled things birds go through. You learn something new 🤗 Thank you so much, these type of videos really relaxes me to sleep ❤

She's such a sweet birb!

Amazing ASMR

Never seen so many pins at once like that but I'm glad she let you help her out

A few days ago, I got to use everything I've learned from your channel about pinfeathers, to help a baby mourning dove that left its nest too early. It absolutely loved being pampered and groomed by my small gentle tweezers. Unfortunately, as with most wild baby birds that get abandoned or lost, it didn't survive for long. We did our best with what we had, but it was injured too.. I'm just very very happy and humbled that I could give it one last long cuddle and pinfeather pampering before it passed away that night. Thank you so much for sharing these delightful little videos. They taught me a lot and have brought me real joy right in my arms.

Ngl,it is my favorite thing to help with pin feathers on my budgies and cocktiels,they find it so relaxing ❤

She is so cute

When I was a child and saw for the first time how our parrot's feathers were growing, I ran to my mother crying: - Worms were crawling out of the parrot's head! 😂😂😂

Feels good

Omg this is so satisfying

Time to add this to my birdies, Juno and Zeus’s playlist x)

new sub! Luuuve these!

I used to be so bad at this. I pulled too hard and hurt them. Its cool to see the budgies recieve this! Only my bigger birds let me groom them.

My favorite Greek budgie! 😂💚💛

Athena is so cute! Subscribed. She reminds me of my Tico. What a sweet girl. 💚💛

Just found your channel, so chill and relaxing 😊 also to everyone freaking out about whether it hurts the bird: the bird would just leave if it hurt 😂 or bite the tweezers. They're clearly happy with what's going on!

Super satisfying And looks like it feels so nice😊

Не знаю у кого больше терпения - у питомца или у хозяйки)

Precioso amigo saludos y bendiciones 🥰🥰💯💯💯

Athena is such a good girl ❤

I’ve never in my life seen a parakeet that was willing to sit this long while someone picked at their feathers with tweezers🤯

I love how u do this so very gently and I think it must feel sort of like a massage to the birds as they seem to enjoy it unless u try to get the wrong pin feather that don't need help opening then I think that nips them they don't like that bless u ♥️🥰

Is this painful for Athena?. She's a beautiful girl. Her colors are precious!!😍❤️🦜🌟

Oh my, that’s a lot of birdie dust for such a little bird. I wish my bird let me bring an implement near her!

What an awesome❤😊assist on a molt❤😊Athena will love you more for it😊

素晴らしいPinfeatherです。次も楽しみにしてます❤

Aww “human is preening me”

our monkey brain wants to groom and the bird brain also wants to preen. peace and love on planet earth

Omg i loved this! Shes so sweet and its so satisfying. I want pin feathers to be a big trend on youtube like extraction videos 😂

Cute birb 💚🦜

Que ternura más grande 💕💕💘😍

Omg. How therapeutic!!! Wow your gorgeous budgie is so well behaved. I have a green cheek conure 4 months old and I was unaware we had to do this. I’m dreading this, probably end up poking its eye out 😮

happy gurl

This is so relaxing to watch. What a sweet relationship you two have 😊

Is this how heaven looks like?

Warm bath for baby x

Oddly satisfying just like blackheads extraction videos 😌

🙏🏻💜💜💜

B i r d d a n d r u f f Cute bird tho!
