Sweet Smurfy 😋 I loved when she got close to the camera, and I could see the beauty of her feathers. She is very healthy. I love hearing her talk and goof around. Such a joy. Hugs to both of you. ❤❤❤❤❤
Don't stress about editing. Just love your Smurf conversations! Years ago my brother looked after my cockertail, Corky, for 2 weeks and when he came home he wouldn't stop saying **** off! Take care.
Hey Nigel and Smurf, another fantastic video. So so funny and heartwarming, you sure do out a smile on our faces. Have a super weekend and I hope you get to see a little bit of the cricket Nigel 😂😂😂❤️😁
I think someone may get a pop in today.😂😂 I just love all of Smurf’s English expressions. Very happy to have found your channel and look forward to more.
LOL! Very humorous conversation today, Puppet. The “need to poopie” she said instead of “good-bye” at that moment was hilarious 😆! You and her are one adorable pair!
That was so sweet again... She doesn't want to say words if you ask her, next video she's bombing you with it!! Like choo-choo-train... Anyway, you two are the living proove that the common knowledge that Parrots always repeat your words is... a myth. Her feathers look so beautiful and healthy, really great Nigel!! 😘 I'll send in some pictures too, of my furry housemates. Have a good weekend!
Thank you both, so very funny. I have one too, he fills my house with noise. Mine is so destructive and is chewing his way through my house every night when he comes out at tea time. He ate my cupboard trim and has now started chewing the carpet. It is groundhog day with a 3 year old who is actually 25 years old. Mine is responding to the voice of your parrot, he thinks I have another one hiding in my tablet lol ha ha
Smurfy likes the Kitchen cos thats where the cups make the best sound as they smash into tiny lil bits as they hit the floor.... And then you give her an indestructable one. lol
I am so sorry I missed yesterday's but I'm getting to watch it now and I just love the connection of you and Smurf I see other connections with their African gray parrots but none like you and her and I just thank you for sharing it with us we love you guys in Smurfy makes me and my grandkids laugh just laugh and me and my grandkids thank you for sharing more than you can imagine I look forward to seeing them and my grandkids most definitely looks forward to seeing a new video with you and Smurf so thank you
Smurfy was in great form today, poppet...........lol. that is an old saying, you coming down with a cold poppet..... lol. You need a tea and honey for your snuffles. Smurfy is funny she has a great sense of humour. Just at the end, she signed off with her famous......I want a poopoo. Lol
Can’t stop laughing Smurfy is hysterically funny 🤣 . I’m sitting Here with Sophia and as I’m laughing, she’s laughing hysterically so we’re both laughing. Loved video as usual. Nice to see both of you once again and keep them coming.. ❤️🥰
I was sitting, exhausted at the end of the week, at the end of my knackering Friday, trying to get motivated .... then along came Smurfy and Nigel... thank you once again, very refreshing .. have a nice weekend 😊
The two of you really crack me up and I needed that. Thank you for the double act and making me laugh amidst so much physical pain. The fact that your videos are spontaneous and not highly edited is what makes them such a pleasure, because they are REAL!! what's not to love about Planet Smurf! ❤❤
I agree with 💯 of what you said. They really do my heart and soul good, and I love how fresh, spontaneous and unedited most of their content is. Don’t get me wrong, I adore the cleverly produced content like Ricky Tinker and Parrot Prepping videos. The Parrot Prepping video was, hands down, an award worthy bit of production!❤🏆
Oh how I love this fluff of feathered fun! Best part, to me, was her precious face filling the entire screen. I know you’d like her to say particular things. It’s very entertaining when she doesn’t. You two are a class act! 😍😍😍
Hey, Nigel and Smurfy - these last few conversations are so wonderful (I've been watching on my tv and, technical genius that I am, can't figure out how to comment on the "big screen"🙃) Anyway, Miss Poppet is in rare form - so sweet and hysterically funny, and as always, so, so lovely to watch the bond you two have. Be careful what you wish for! It's all about the choo choo train now! You two really brighten my day just by being yourselves-don't ever think it's not fun or interesting...thanks for sharing! ☮️💜🌍🐦🚂
Does she know how to work your phone, Nige? Cause maybe, since she keeps going on about someone is going to pop up, she invited someone over! To surprise you, like... a surprise 🥳 😂
I just love you guys so much!❤ You never fail to make me smile and laugh, which I can really use😁 I’m sure someone else communicates with you more than I do, but I guarantee I’m your number one fan! I’m so grateful you’re in the world. It’s much more beautiful with you in it. I love Smurfy calling you “poppet”. That’s a word we don’t use here in the US, and it’s charming and adorable.🥰 Also “you need to have a poo-poo” 🤣🤣 I love all birds, both wild and domestic, but Smurfy is by far my favorite parrot! 🐦
Well, that's made our day Julie. Thank you :) ...it's an old English word of affection. My mum calls my poppet - although at 50 years old I REALLY wish she wouldn't! :)
Sounds like Smurfy is picking up words from else where 😅 who's coming over poppet, straw for the parrot 🦜 You both had me laughing so much, which when you're on your own 24/7 , it's good for me. I like these short conversations. Much appreciated 🤗
Woohoo it's my fave duo 🥰 hey Nige & Smurfy, great to see you. Reminds me of the song 'You'll Always Find Me In The Kitchen At Parties' hahaha. Smurfy sure is on one today, choochoo train Woowoo!! Really needed the laugh today, and you've made that happen. Your giggle is infectious 😂😂 Have a great (long) weekend, roll on the surprise in September! 🥰🥰
Watched this video again. Love Smurf so much. She hangs out in the kitchen so she can get potato’s and grab mugs. She is so different from other birds , she has a great personality and you really bring out the best in her. Yes, it is her mug.
@@smurfyswears , my african grey, Josie used to ask for a cracker but wanted a peanut butter one and would open it and just eat the peanut butter, lol. I miss her so much, when I ran across your channel, smurfy reminded me a lot of her. If I had the window open she would be naughty and whistle for the dogs and watch them as the ran back toward the house to see who was there, looking around confused when they didn't see a human!😄
Absolutely brilliant as always. Love smurfy, she is so smart and cute. All your videos make me smile. Love them, please keep them coming. Thank you nigel ❤❤
She's so hilarious....lots of new words & all jumbled up in linga Smurfy 😂 Cant get over how clearly she is speaking.....where does she get 'poppet' from? So funny how she crashes her mug onto the floor....obviously loves the noise! Can she say her own name yet? Jasper gets his name muddled up with the cat.....'Jaspussy miaow' Ive got several photo's of pets I've had over the years but only Jasper left now....& hes very camera shy. If I try to video him he sits in a silent heap!!
@smurfyswears Will have to try to record him when he's not aware of it! Poppet is lovely....a friend of mine still calls her 50yr old son 'Sweet Chicks'!! Jasper latched on to that one very quickly by the way!
Awe shes such a cutie! We have 2 Greys, & they’re such fun characters! Definitely won’t do anything unless it’s on their terms lol …(& oh ya, we agree with not watching the news!!💯🤣)
Glad I’m not the only idiot! But, my smart TV, clearly far too sophisticated for me “I reckon,” 😉 keeps asking me to sync up my devices so that I can watch on TV and comment from my phone at the same time. I have a headache from just typing that!😅 No doubt Justice could probably figure it out…but not me.
Nige, We need bumper stickers: “I wish I was as smart as my parrot.” If we got all these Grays together, they would rule the world! I had a Goffins Cockatoo who whittled a “key” out of a 2 inch x 4 foot piece of wood -his favorite chew toy(!) and opened the padlock on his cage! Then we replaced that with a combination lock and after two weeks, he opened that! Amazing creatures. (We always locked his cage when we would be out for several hours for fear of theft-exotic birds are big money in Hawaii, where I lived with my veterinarian husband at the time.)
Loved the video. Thanks. Smurf cheers me up. Maybe she can say my name. My Grey that passed used to call me by my name all the time but never mommy. Interesting. I used to tell her that it would be Lois and Sly in love all the time. Maybe that’s why. Prefer watching bird videos to news that is bad. Watched Cosmo live last night and Gizmo and Bloob came in to the video too. Always fun watching them together.
@@smurfyswears Thanks Nigel. Have you watched Apollo and Frens? Apollo is a very smart Grey that has been trained and taught colors and objects. He is asked questions in sentences and he replies in sentences. No trouble with any letters. He will start by answering , This is a …… whatever it is. He can also catagorize objects. For example Dalton , his dad can show him a bowl. Apollo can say it is a bowl. What is this made of? Apollo will say it is made of glass. Dalton will take this bowl and turn it over and put it over his head? What is this? Apollo will say it is a hat. Dalton used Dr. Pepperberg’s way of training Alex. I know how this was done. It is not hard but you have to have a smart bird that loves to learn. Smurfy is very smart. She can do this. On the funny side , Dalton brought in different kinds of bugs and taught Apollo the word big. One day Apollo was shown a shrimp and asked by Dalton what this was. Apollo never saw a shrimp before. Apollo catagorized this as a bug. I have not been able to eat shrimp since. I do not eat bugs. Dalton and wife live in Florida in USA. They also have 2 adorable and smart Caiques which have learned to do some tasks also. I have trouble telling these Caique sisters apart but Apollo can identify which is which. Greys are brilliant. Maybe you can teach Smurfy to identify his mug. What is this , Smurf, She can answer This is my mug. Give her a treat when she answers correctly . Tell her in advance she will get a treat for answering correctly. Make this a game. Have patience. She will learn.
Aaaw, looks like you have the same kitchen cabinet handles that I have. If it’s the same size though. If you should happen to have some extra laying around, I would be very interested! I have had two break and I have no others and couldn’t find new ones here (Norway)… LOL, So much fun listening to you two!!! Love African Grays!!! They are so smart. I think they often chooses not to say something. They could talk a lot more using human language, but sometimes they just don’t see the point… 🤗😂❤❤❤
Exactly Lotta. She worked out years ago that I talk a lot of **** so you can't blame her for ingoring me :) ...I will find the right handles for you. Leave it with me!
😂❤ she got me right at the beginning with her beebeboopiboopi something !!😂 she's amazing..i like how she makes you laugh..🌟happy weekend!! Love to see her pretty face close to the camera😁
Thanks you two!... all is well on Planet Smurph! Nige, she is just not interested in being a performing seal... and she says way more on camera than a lot of the others! She is a whole entertainment package! 😂😂😂

Probably a roadie for Motorhead no doubt Laura :)

Visitors? Here??? If she's inviting people over I'm having words with her Ellen :)
i love african gray
Thanks Charlie :)
Smurfy is so funny! I hear new words quite often. I think that's a pretty smart birdie!
You should teach her the word "sunshine"👍😁😂
That's a good idea! Sunshine is now on the list too :)
@@smurfyswears How fun! I can't wait to hear that come out of her cute little mouth 🐦⬛😊💕
Very funny, and from the Chichester too, the centre of the civilised world!

I think they often chooses not to say something. They could talk a lot more using human language, but sometimes they just don’t see the point… 🤗😂❤❤❤
Exactly Lotta. She worked out years ago that I talk a lot of **** so you can't blame her for ingoring me :) ...I will find the right handles for you. Leave it with me!
