Hi, Michele.
I have been working on clicker training Cory, though I must admit that I haven't been very consistent. We've worked on some tricks, like putting shapes on a peg and turning around on cue. I've been working lately on the "stay" command, but she's very stubborn and wants to fly to me. Over the weekend, I put some of her toys in a basket she used to like to play on in the bathroom of the old house and clicked for her playing on it. That seemed to work pretty well.
Wait until Humph makes the click sound to make you give him a treat! It won't take very long I bet. Cory also makes the click sound for Zen sometimes when I tell her she's a good girl.
There's a pretty good clicker training list specifically for birds on Yahoo.
Here's the link:

Keep us posted. It's amazing how quickly they start to respond to the training.
