Grey chatter

I'm sitting here in my guest bedroom, where my lap top is. The room is next to the birds room so I can sit here and listen to the conversations going on in the next room. I have the radio on, so the birds are overall singing along with Faith Hill at the moment.
Sydney is eating, I can hear him rummaging through his dish. Ollie is playing with his boing, Harley is making small noises as Puff, the tiel is singing his heart out.
Emma is quacking, and everyonce in a while, saying Emma~Emma~Emma, whachya doin? She's holding her notes she is singing along with the radio.
(she loves to sing)

Stirling however is there telling the world, he is "pickin butt"
That what we call preening around here....pickin butt.

Stirling is in there, next to the window, having a conversation with himself
it goes like this:
Stirling, PAAAArot, whatchya doing. Hey. Whatchya doin? Pickin butt? really? HEY~Stirtickle~parrot, are you good? Yep, good. Emma, whatchya doing? pickin butt? hahahahaha....

Its in my voice

only sometimes its kinda like 4 little tape recorders listening to my every noise They even clear thier throats like me, because very often I have a hard time breathing because of my asthma...you would think Stirling has Allergies and Asthma too.

But I do love listening to them....
I often sit on the floor outside thier room to listen this way, Emma cant see me...however, I do NOT like it when one of them knocks like my front door and I go to answer it!

Lisa, that's so cute! However, you are not at all helping me get rid of this recent bout of "Grey Fever"

Talking

Stella has started "hocking" like my Hubby. Makes ya wanna move out of her way. The Guys also taught her to fart.

Taking in an adult Gray makes me feel like a voyeur. The things she says!

Too Cute!

Awww, Lisa...wish I was a fly on the wall!

I love laying down for a nap near Tuki's cage. He will nap with us for a bit and then wake up and start babbling to himself too.

Your babies talking to each other takes the cake!!!

You do not know how badly I needed to laugh today! Good Jawb Lisa! Now, I'll be asking my babies if they're "pickin' butt, too!
