- A pet cockatiel named Leo is going viral for its ability to mimic songs like ‘September,’ ‘The Addams Family’ theme, the national anthem, and Christmas carols.
‘When we are teaching him songs, we just whistle them over and over again and he eventually picks it up! Some take a little longer than others,’ said the bird’s owner, Scarlett, via SWNS.
Footage of Leo chirping to ‘September’ has more than 1.2M likes and 7M+ views on social media. ‘[Leo was] just living his best life whistling … it was so funny that [my daughter] had to record it,’ said Scarlett.

"No, I don't want no cookie - I'm trying to get a record deal!"
😂
😆 👍
🤣😂 and he just might! I'd buy his album! 😂
The way he does the Addam’s Family snaps sound 🤣🙌
Absolutely my favorite one. What a talented feathered fella.
He is like everyone: struggling to get the intervals right in the US national anthem! 😂 boy! The Star spangled banner is a tough cookie! 😅
You want a cookie?
That takes a lot of dedication. I taught my cockatiel (RIP Pearl) how to sing the opening instrumental for Kelly Clarkson's Broken and Beautiful. Then, he heard other songs playing and started ad-libbing.
We had a cockatiel named Pearl too. She was pretty useless though lol
Cookie........ ? C'ant you see i'm singing right now ?
That was an amazing "Addams Family" tweet.
I can't eat a cookie now!! I'm being adorably entertaining.
We had a cockatiel named Bart. He picked up so many whistles that we taught him but there was one we couldn't figure out where he heard it! He did it all the time and one day when I opened the front door he did it! Here it was the sound of the door squeaking!!!! LOL!
My bird feeder by my bed room window stays busy with all sorts of wild birds 🐦 and they come to feed early in the morning 🌄 about the time my cell phone alarm goes off ..Some of those wild birds have picked up on it and now use that sound for what ever reason ..They have hijacked my alarm sounds lol So some wild birds have this capability ..But I haven't been able to figure out which ones are actually doing this ??
@@paulcombee2209 oh wow!!!!! That's amazing!
Aw I love this! It must mean the owner sings a lot and that’s simply wonderful!
The Addams family 😂😂
Leo is a darling little bird.
He does a mighty fine job of whistling these tunes, & “On Tune”I might add. Thanks for sharing.
Animals are more intelligent than we humans will ever be that's for sure. from UK 🇬🇧👍 an old cockney gal
How cute! What a sweetheart! Wanting to please you!!!💖💜💛💕❤️🧡💚
I love birds, they’re so sweet and beautiful. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
He’s got star quality 💝🙌!
And I think he knows it! 😂
Adorable baby 🤭
Not the way his tone just changes like he’s hastily saying “no. no.” to the cookie 😭 It’s like the owner is a kid annoying its parent during an important zoom conference. _Scram and let me have my moment, dammit!_
Cute birb got some hip tunes 😬
Imagine trying to sing, and someone is shoving a cookie, larger than the size of your head, in your face, interruping your singing with "wanna cookie?".
Soooo adorable!! 💕💜💕
So cute ☺️
Anything that makes one smile in today's world is appreciated.
Patriotic as well .Star spangled banner..My favorite .❤ 🇺🇸
So cute 😍
Love him hes fantastic ❤️ more please 🙏 ❤️ 😅uk 🇬🇧
I taught ours to wolf whistle. She also loved the PC Richard's commercial. Never tried actual songs.
I had a beautiful cockatiel called Magic and he would do the Addams family theme tune, and dogs squeaky balls and the phone and much more, and he would even hold a cigarette in his claws and giggle ☺️ they really are beautiful intelligent birds...
Lol! It took me a few seconds to imagine what "squeaky balls" were! 😂
@@kennethhoneycutt2481 lol the dogs balls plastic one not their balls... 😂😂😂
Great birb
Anyone who has played Minecraft would know cookies are poisonous to birds.
Oh hes good. Sweetie pie
Too busy singing to eat!
I’d say this living dinosaur is more patriotic than many of today’s americans.
So cool.
I wonder if the cockatoo whistles while his owner works
I have a male cockatiel named Whistler.
Is this bird in a band yet?
Mine does the beginning to Leave it to Beaver and other songs.
😂😂 ❤❤❤
He keeps starting the national anthem in too high of a key, then adjusts it lower and gets stuck!
The Andy Griffith show,
What our Cockatiel Ozzie was the best at!!
Whoever taught him is a bit tone deaf; most of these notes are just slightly off. I met a parrot once that knew the A Team theme, but like this guy, he whistled it a bit wonky.
Is the spider going by during the Adam’s family theme for effect, of is it a snack for singing so well?
Very cool pet! How long have you had him/her?
I had a cockatieal ,it wasn't smart .it just sat there and bite people .our parrot would take your finger off too ,I've never had a bird since
Copyright strike headed your way.
Why do you say he mimics, rather than sings? Y'all learn the songs you sing by sight-reading?
Lame
