    It seems like we are back to square one. He is scared of me again, even if I get near the cage I wonder what I did wrong.

    I wouldn't say square 1 but something is making him uncomfortable. Brightly colored nail polish? Red or bright colored clothing? I once had a Quaker parrot who recognized me by appearance. I got a short hair cut and started wearing contact lenses. My Quaker immediately thought I was public enemy #1!!!!!!!

    Uh oh. There's something he sees that's freaking him out.

    Think about what has changed in the room perhaps or like Linda said, nail polish. It could be anything. I have a Snoopy t shirt that I wore once and Max wouldn't come near me...lol. He hates it! I tried it again thinking he'd get used to it but no way! Needless to say, I don't wear the shirt anymore...lol

    Mine are definitely uncomfortable when I wear my work shirts, which are all over red polos or v-necks. They strongly prefer to not be on or near me until I change. All my other stuff is shades of blue, gray, black, or brown.
