My outside birds say " F*CK YOU!"

I tell people they say " THANK you"

I know EXACTLY what your talking about!

That's hilarious! My daughter says "Oh my god!" a lot, so now Izzy's making a surprised gasping sound and saying "Oh my god!" to everything. That and rushing over, biting Lilly's leg and proclaiming "Bad Lilly!". He's a devil.

Geez! Mine do things everyday that make me giggle. Elliot is into the kiss kiss noise over and over followed by arh, arh , arh, arh. He also peaks from under his blankee in the morning, upside down and says "Hi Baby"

Newt gets me giggling when its time to go nite nite and he starts to try to con me out of not covering him by being cute and whispering, "HI,, are we being quiet now?" then his punching noise.. "poo poo poo", following by his "goosing" noise, then he starts humming or singing softly. Newt is famous for the one toe hang with the other foot in the ear flirting, head feathers all fluffed - the little fart, and now Elliot is mimicking this.. LOL Newt also picks up his soft fleecy toys and strokes his own face saying, "Awww" or when I pet Elliot.

They also get each other wired during the day and start shouting "Woo hoo" and YAY at each other.. Little goofballs!

I never knew macaws were such clowns!! Minga is very serious and doesn't do any of these things.

Oh yeah.. They can be total clowns.. that's one of the things I love about them and everything is sooooooo DRAMATIC.. that's what is even funnier. I think there are days Newt could win an Academy Award.

Oh I'd love to see all that. It'd be so much fun having avid talkers/ feathered comedians in the house- instead of birds with a gratuitous repertoire of whistles and weird noises. When Ashling bites I tell her off, but she's taken my telling off noise and transformed it into her own cheeky laughter She'll bite me, fluff up her feathers then laugh and make gleeful bobbing motions.
When my cockatiel Peanut and his 'Mrs' have finished "doing their thing," he sits atop her, spreads his wings, stares lovingly at them and says "Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty booooy!" Halo, did I hear you say typical man?

Go Peanut go!!! That's so funny!

hmm
chickie baby said ChickBurrrrrrrrrrrd the other day LOL
she has started talking like me and its creepy accurate - when she came she was already pre programmed with lots of things she could say but now she says them all in my voice
its weird
when i put her in her cage for time out she starts sweet talking me "hiiiiiiiiii-iiiiiii" "pretty pretty" "wooooo woooooo"

dude does the best kissing sounds...he will do a bunch all in fast repetition then he will do one serious kiss and when its done he jerks his head away all dramatic
its obvious he picked that up from someone giving him kisses and being very animated about it

dude has also taken to mimicking the monkey 'PAY ATTENTION TO ME" noises that boogie does and it sounds JUST like her

they all get going a couple times a day and they feed off each other talking until it builds up into a frenzy

I think it's about time for more pics of Chickie and her crew

Kisses reminded me of what Mr. did today I just had laugh at him. He was sitting on my shoulder and I felt my hair being pulled out of my face ever so gently and turn and he leans forward and starts giving me kisses LOL. I do giggle at Mr. all the time but cant think of anything else.
