Little Geniuses

Is it just me, or is winter bringing out the best in our birds?

Well, my birds certaintly learned something. Freddie is talking up a storm when he thinks no one is listening ("Hello? HELLO?!? Freddie wanna peanut! Please? *kiss* Kisses! ... What?") and i'm quite happy. He's even starting to talk in front of us a little bit.

But what i'm really happy about is my pois. Yesterday night when I tucked them in I said "Night night birdies." Right then, both birds climbed to their sleeping perches, poofed up and closed their eyes. They knew it was bedtime!

Hopefully I can start teaching Indy tricks soon.

What smart birds! Doyle's new phrase is "Ooper" (our dog's name is Cooper).

Great to hear that training has commenced!

When we use the same phrase & do the same things over & over they learn - they're so smart! Laker knows, 'let's go' & 'time for bed', mean get into the cage. When i call him my sweetheart he stares & then slowly closes his eyes *melt*.

Lucky their every move is satisfying for us proud Parronts!
