Red Alert! Red Alert!

HOLY COW! I had no idea my boys could be 2 macaw warning sirens!

I worked from home Wed to have some maintenance on some things in and around my home.

My pest control co came to treat the outside of the home, and when that man walked by the boys window?!!!

MY boys screamed bloody murder!
I had to go out of my office and calm them down, but one thing is for sure, I'll never have to worry about not knowing someone is lurking around my house. LOL

Had the exact same thing happen to me just this week except my CAG took flight, still the noise was enough to alert us.

I had a contractor come in my home to give me an estimate and boy lambert "knew" that guy wasn't supposed to be in his home. He screamed bloody murder...poor guy. He had a story to tell when he got home! Lambert is great at alerting us when things aren't just the way they should be....its funny 'cause he recognizes our neighbors.

Tell me about it,,,, Scarley would scream bloody murder, the poor soul would go to her cage and she would BITE his finger off, RIngo would hunker down in the corner of his cage, Scarlet would be fetching toys for him to throw all the while barking her head off and the cats would be hiding under the bed and I would yelling, WOULD YOU ALL JUST SHUT UP! LOL

Teal LOVES to scare the mail man. One time he was looking backwards (while walking front) trying to figure out where that hiddious noise was coming from. Well he tripped and fell in my driveway. I saw the hole thing. I had to explain what or who that loud mouth was. He said, so that is what that is everyday when I come here!

Good job, Newton and Elliot! Guess you don't have to worry about robbers. Those screams would probably scare them away!
