Checking out soundproofing

Had a coffee with the neighbour yesterday and she was saying that Coco (BE2) has been much noisier lately. I asked her to describe the noise and no it's not Coco, it's actually Merlin (Ekkie) who arrived here 3 weeks ago doing his cockatoo impersonation. Poor Coco getting the blame when for onceot wasn't her fault.

Where the birdroom is we have a carport then it goes straight to her bedroom. We can't change the location of the birdroom so I'm checking out some sound proof windows for the room. It's only the one window so hoping it won't be too expensive however, keeping neighbours content and not making the problem of Merlin joining in the morning noise by reinforcing it will be worth it I think.

Anyone had any experience with some of the techniques available?

I was looking at this place to get a quote (on top of all the other quotes we're getting for our upcoming renovations).
