My previous coworker at a vet a worked for rescued parrots. At one point she had an African Grey she brought to work to socialize with people. We changed the fire alarm battery 3 times in 2 weeks before we realized it was the parrot mimicking the low battery noise for attention, since her favorite perch in the office was under the fire alarm 😂
I dont think people fully grasps how crazy it is that a bird can speak human language like we are conditioned to just accept it so easily but its honestly mind blowing
@@CheesyMtnDew um, *their* is the possessive and *they're* is a contraction of they + are. So... No. They are. Maybe *don't* correct people if *you're* not sure how grammar works.
One of mine does it while waving his wing, while completely open. The other one does it with the shoulder of her wing. It is absolutely adorable. But mine talk more.
All I can think of is that bird that everyone kept saying "you're a bird!" To and it repeated it back until one day it was in the other room and quietly said " *I'm* a bird" as if realizing and the owner almost dropped what they were holding. Also the bird who sang oh my darling clementine sings better than me wth ;°;
My African grey has done this on a few rare occasions when he's alone. I talk to him at dinner and say I'm a person, you're a bird, zoey is a kitten, etc. And one day I heard him say "I'm a bird" from downstairs.
My Chopper boy talks in full sentences. His longest sentence so far I have recorded is, 'Of course you should pick me up!' He says so many things, and everyday he learns more. Right now he is learning to sing What a wonderful world, and Twinkle twinkle. My other bird has been picking up on it too, and they have started having conversations at night together. It is crazy to listen to, or believe!
My father has a pair of lovebirds. He recently got an idea of just how smart they are. They try to copy him saying 'hello' but as most parrot lovers probably know, lovebirds aren't very good talkers. The best they can do is more like 'eh-wo-o' but they try. Well, my dad lived in China atm. He lives in an area with a LOT of rats and big holes at the top of walls for ventilation...so rats get it. Well, My dad was often worried about their birds because of the rats, and the birds would get nervous when they had to chase a rat out of the area....until one event. Now they don't have rats. Which is weird. EVERYONE has rats, that's just how that area is, but not them. My dad says he put 2 and 2 together the other day when he witnessed what those clever little birds were doing. right before this strange phenomenon, they had a dying rat come into the room next to where the birds were. The thing had been poisoned or something (bitten by snake was also possible considering how the thing died). It made horrible screaming and screeching noises while peeing and running in circles until it finally died. Well, they cleaned everything and got rid of the thing but... from that day forward, no rats. _at all._ Then a week or so ago, my dad got up in the night to get something from that section of the house and heard the same noises the dying rat had been making. He went in and saw that the two lovebirds were taking turns screaming and screeching like a rat that was dying in horrible agony. He's since found that they do that each and every night now. He says he doubt they're doing it for the fun of it. He's pretty sure they know exactly what they're doing.
Just a reminder that you shouldn’t mindlessly go out and buy a bird (or any animal for that matter). Just because you feel the urge to go get one.. DON’T. Unless you are well informed, have the money for their costs ( vet checks, food, toys, etc..) and you have the s p a c e! also you can’t forget one important thing you need. Responsibility. If you can barely take care of yourself..I wouldn’t recommend getting one.
When I have more time I'm going for a pair of cockatiels, not for breeding. So that they have someone else to relate to. Possibly siblings. I've done research for almost an entire year now.
@Beanie well, you should be prepared for every pet, but having a bird takes a lot more than having a dog or cat. Birds are a lot more fragile and can die a lot easier. For a dog or cat, simply cooking something or running a blow dryer near them won’t affect them much but it can easily kill a bird near them. Also, though possible, it’s a lot easier to kill a bird with stress than any common dog. Not to mention, birds and other pets alike all need attention, but birds require a lot more, they have to have up to 8 hours a day of interaction. You can leave a dog or cat alone all day if well trained while you’re at work and they’ll be fine when you return, but birds will likely self mutilate if that occurs to them. So believe me, birds require a special amount of preparation and planning
One thing that really fascinates me about voice mimicking birds is that, if you trained them well enough, you could literally tell them, “hey, what’s your name?” And they will say their name. If you ask them to make a sound of a cat, they make the sound of a cat, So fascinating.
The Adventures of Chopper and Paco Macaw they really are a lot of work my birds are very naughty they always scream when I’m taking my online class lol, and they also won’t stop chewing on my wall
We had a number of parakeets that talked! One got so taken with himself we actually had to remove the mirror from his cage because he wouldn’t leave his own reflection long enough to eat or drink! He just sat there kissing the mirror and flirting with himself!
this sounds like my high school class when those kids in the back start setting off each other's tourrettes by accident lmao, it's honestly great that we were allowed to laugh too
How wonderful to see a bare-eyed cockatoo! First one I ever saw was in a bird room at a pet store in Ottawa, Canada, and I didn't see her when I first entered. All of a sudden I heard the most explosive "HELLO!" to my left, and when I looked it was this gorgeous bare-eye! I should have lived in Australia, with my love of the birds, but they seem to love me equally. At a picnic lunch in Ku Ring Gai Chase National Park, we were joined by NINE Kookaburras, one of which, a juvenile, flew to me and hung out on the arm of the chair I sat in. Birds make my heart flutter!
That's so weird, I used to live very close to Kuringgai national park, in St Ives. Heaps of wonderful birds. "Bare-eye" cockatoos are called corellas here ('long-billed', specifically). So strange to call them anything else! You should definitely come back now life is a little safer, and go hang out with all the birds again. Not at all surprised about the 9 kookies! They're used to getting fed (and stealing) at national parks
I have the same kind of Bird. I’m surprised he likes people and loves to talk in sentences since the prior owners daughter beat his feet with a wooden pole when he was talking too much or being too noisy and broke them - his toes and kept his cage turned to the wall and they threw small parakeet food into . the cage to eat ! into bottom of cage expecting that he would go to the bottom of the cage and eat like a parakeet. When I rescued him , he was all skin and bones. I’ve had him for almost three years now. He’s very happy and healthy and talks all day long. He says Hi Jordan or call out for me and he says Maaaaaaa I love it and I love that God put Jordan in my hands to give him a wonderful rest of his life.
I taught a cockatoo at the pet store to says scratches once. He loved head and neck scratches. A little moodier than his sibling who didn't learn to talk before being bought.
One time I was in a bird store and the owner kept *her* birds in the store as well, and I was looking at feed when I heard in a really deep voice, “*hello*” and it scared me to death but it was an Amazon behind me 💀💀💀
Birds are a long-term commitment they need proper care and often end up in shelters and pluck their feathers because of stress but with PROPER RESEARCH birds can be amazing friends!!!
How fascinating! I can’t believe they can do that! I really want to know how they can do that! I’ve tried to research but it seems like no one really knows how they do it except they seem to have some type of voice box that’s different from other birds. I just can’t believe how cool it is to hear then do that.

Pretty much every bird has the ability to mimic sounds they hear, including human speech. Corvids are actually better at it than parrots are btw.
