  • This video makes me want to cry. I feel very guilty about having cockatiels. It's one reason I try so hard to do everything for them. They have a massive aviary they fly in, endless toys, and I spend hours with them, yet I still feel guilty. They won't ever raise chicks or fly in the sky. I will always feel bad in some way. But if they are at least happy in my house, I feel I'm doing something right. All I can do is my best for them. They were born in captivity.

  • @tevian3 If a cockatiel was born in an aviary they would feel more comfortable there than out flying in an unknown world... i know what you mean i also do my best. If they can flap their wings , fly , and eat natural grass seeds you collect from around the environment which is what all my 25 birds do ...they are very happy. Good on you

  • what version of great southern land is this

  • @TheBjmax33 Iva Davies performed his song here with the final four choirs in the Battle of the Bands show in australia where he was one of the judges. It was a feature act during the final show.

  • they should be iin the wild like this and i hve one cockatiel its singing rite now lol.... this makes me feel bad and sad tht im keepin my bird captive in the house i do let him out dnt get me wrong but stilll

  • @beywarfare95 Hi mate , i saw that you were a young fella and i think that to have your view being young shows you have a lot of heart. I commend you are like all kids should be. Cockatiels will be your life mate forever if you let them and glad you have one. WELL DONE. Mine are sunny arnie and poppy, a cinnamon , silver and grey like yours. Greys, "normals" are the smart ones and strong ones as they are naturally occurring.

  • @tevian3 It's nice that you feel that way, but a bird born into captivity should stay in captivity. And who's to say you can't let them raise chicks or fly in the sky? The problem with each is that in the former case, you have to provide the right environment for breeding, and for flying, you need to train them so that they will automatically return to you after flying around. A bird born and raised in captivity, when treated right, will live much longer than its wild counterparts.

  • Where was the first part shot at? It looks like it's somewhere in Australia. nice video btw

  • What a wonderful vid...thank you for sharing :)

  • i love tiels! and they are so beautiful in the wild!

  • @Rock1nPsycho  yes i do Rock....but not on you tube

  • To Tevian 3: Chances are if you bought a Cockatiel,it did NOT come from the wild.Austrailla has banned the capture and importation of wild Budgies and Cockatiels and such for years.It was more than likley hatched and reared wherever you live in the world

  • Awww they r so cute thnx 4 lovely video

  • do u have footage of grass parrots/red rumped parrots?

  • great video,birds are astonishing, simply amazing

  • @tevian3 you can let them fly outside if you train them well enough :)
