I'm A Slave To My M2

Hi All,

A transplanted New Yorker now living in Sherwood, Or. Tango is an 11 year old Male M2 that runs the household. My grown daughter will only half smile when she says she was run out of town by Tango. Fortunately he gets along with both my wife and me. Tango's claim to fame is that he can whistle the "1812 Overture", "Rhapsody in Blue" and the first couple of bars to "Ding Dong, the witch is dead" from the Wizard of Oz. His claim to infamy is that he does a perfect imitation of a smoke alarm, only he imitates the alarm about 5 times louder. We have had complaints come from Idaho when he starts screaming

We can deal with the screaming in the house but when he is on his perch in the backyard and I devote just a small amount of attention to someone else he starts screaming. I immediately bring him up to his cage but he knows how to ring my bell. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

You can see a 2 minute clip of Tango here.

An Animoto video here.

LOL Tango is an amazing and gorgeous bird! I loved how he said Olivia and kept dumping the bowls of water. Love the M2s!
