Happenings
Happenings was first originally based on my two pet budgies. Their names are Savy and Tavy a.k.a Selemandra and Tonkosanka respectively.
Both of the characters in my book Happenings 3, Savy and Tavy are actually based on these two budgies you are seeing in the picture above. The real life Savy is just like the book-life Savy. And the real life Tavy is like the book-life Tavy too. Their personalities are also based on them. For example, Tavy doesn’t flies much and probably doesn’t used his wings much in the real life, which is the same case for Tavy in my book.
The Happenings Series is actually planned to be divided into three parts: Birdlie Series, Hensley Series (soon to come) and Pegionor Series (soon to come too).
The picture you see in the header of this web page is of the real life Savy and Tavy. Sadly, Tavy just died on 26th January, 2022 and I’m still sad from that. And as a memoir, I will continue him as a star character of the Birdlie Series.

Selemandra Sav Canel
Selemandra is just like her name, like a Selemandar, perhaps. She has many nicknames and can be called Sally and “Miss Snarky” (as in Happenings 3). But her common name is Savy, joining two letters of “Selemandra” at start and end and her middle name, “Sav”.
She is a snarkish yellow-lighted albino parakeet. She loves making remarks and can be very childish. Her childishness is depicted when she wears the queen costume.
Common Facts
- She is a fast flyer
- She loves commenting
- Out of the crew, Samiz is only her favourite one
- Her favourite colour is green
Disorders
She has a lack of proper social skills, as Tavy says. Other then that, she has no disorder.
Relationships
• Tavy - best friend and cousin
• Nuez - friend
• Canny - casual friend
• Samiz - close human friend
Personality
As I’ve already mentioned before, she is very snarky. She can be rude at times, but she has a soft spot for the ones she is close to. She can be very funky, clever and witty.

Tonkosanka Ve Xesos
Tonkosanka, Tonoko or Tavy is a budgie of a high specimen in Birdlie. He is introverted and loves to read books. Perhaps you might have watched in Episode 2, when Savy keeps throwing laundry, it covers Tavy’s book accidentally which makes him mad. Savy and Tavy in real life do fight sometimes, so my animations are mostly based on them fighting.
He’s an Australian budgie and a high specimen as I have said it before. A high specimen looks exactly just like Tavy does so I don’t think you need much explaining with that. He can be quiet and he loves knowledge.
Common Facts
- He is a poor flyer, compared to Savy, and barely opens his wings
- He loves books
- He is smart
- He’s very kind-hearted (refer to the short “The Order Prank”)
Relationships
Nuez - friend
Savy - best friend
Canny - casual friend
Miff - close human friend
Personality
He can be a bit of an introvert and very innocent. He is a furry and warm-hearted birdy to be around. He can be stressed out too easily, though. He’s mostly quiet but when he speaks, he can speak and chatter a lot.
