 Hollywood came here and did not trust at all. (can't blame him)  Took me a while and multiple crush bites to let him know that I am trustworthy and no matter what I would not hurt him or be mad at him.  It is what it is after all.  I know in pics he looks like we have a great bond and we do...to a point.  He just has always been kinda a touch me not, well unless he wants his head scritches of course.  But no wing touching, back touching, being close at all unless we are outside.  Which then he is nervous and so he trusts me a bit more to keep him safe I guess, and lets me get close without a bite or even a nip. 

A while ago he started on occasion wanting to come out to say hello when I got home from work.  (which is anywhere b/w 1 and 4am).  So I would oblige and talk sweet nothings for a min or two, kiss his beak and send him back off to bed.  Then he started grabbing a hold of my shoulder with his beak as I talked to him.  Well I can finally say HW and I got our snuggle on!!!  Full on macaw snuggle!   :dance5: :ys:  He did it a few nights ago, and every one since.  I take him out asking him if he wants a snuggle and he steps up to my arm and lays his head right on my chest.   :heart:  Yesterday he didn't want to go back in I save it for only a couple mins cuz after all it is the middle of the night.  But I said ok back night night I love you, kissed his beak as always and he put his beak out to his cage but would not step off my arm.   dmblaf  I said want more snuggles, he let go and head to chest again immediately.  What can I say I could not resist.   ashamed  But the next time after another min or 2 I said no no step off (which he knows step up and step off he HAS to/ which is different than do ya wanna come with me or do ya wanna go home)  .

I am so excited I could burst.  I never ever thought I would see the day that he would snuggle like I have with other macs and a part that I love about them.  But I just took it as ok well no biggie, as long as you are happy it is all that matters, after all some people are touch me nots too right.
