Cockatiels are parrots and, like all parrots, they have two main means of escaping predators:

  • They tend to fly in flocks, which provides them some protection, as there is safety in numbers
  • All members of the parrot family fly erratically. This makes it more difficult for predators such as hawks to catch them. Hawks soar and fly smoothly but they cannot follow the erratic path of a typical parrot.
