      Funny thing is for animals sometimes that’s a cue to continue. Like “hey this gets everyone yelling and gets me lots of attention, yay!”
      I did an internship at the zoo, we weren’t to speak to the orangutans unless the keepers gave the okay because if you talk to them when they’re doing something they’re not supposed to do they *start doing it harder*.

The bathroom was upstairs, he was downstairs, but he imitated their mouthwash gargling and spitting out a lot louder than the original sounds were (presumably). Which was hilarious, especially when he did this in the garden for all the neighbours to hear. 😂😂😂

      I realised what he was doing. He was curious what this new sound his friend was making. The percussion drill was hammering away, and it made a good Rrrrrrrrrrchk and he associated the noise with the words of clock. He kept asking whats this trying to understand what he was hearing from a human perspective. And getting largely ignored by his favorite human, he was overstimulated and a bit bored and entertaining himself and trying to learn something new.

      ​@@HansWurst1569given that he can associate certain words to certain material, and sounds, i'd say it's slightly more then mimicking. No doubt a lot of it is mimicking and the man just having fun, but saying it's all just mindless mimicry is taking credit away from the lad. He may not understand 100% everything he is saying, but who would expect him to. Bits and pieces though? Id bet.

    He mimics both your voices in this video so well. Amazing how many tones he can say. So fascinating to watch him just talk away. Does he talk literally all day long or does he have his moments when he talks a lot and then stops? I have an Amazon and he doesn’t talk or make noises all day long he has his moments and other times he quiet for awhile until something happens that’s not normal.

    This is one of the videos of Apollo that amazes me the most. When he says "I saw it Apollo, look this is the bird outside" I feel like I can see emotion in him and that hes imitating being the bird outside the window and he makes the pcheww noise sort of bragging how he nailed the pose. Its remarkable how he seems to understand things like this, and he said I saw it Apollo meaning he saw the fire when Dalton showed him in the past and he knows what it is. I think he shows off to the camera because he knows when he sees it it means he should show off his skills.

      I hope you are doing alright and aren't too upset about your mother passing. After all you were there for a good amount of his life, 5 years can seem like eternity when looking after a pet
      Owning a bird can be very tiring at some times. It's a long time commitment and can be hard to do.
      So I would be very proud of yourself for helping him live to the age of 40-ish!
