    Time in your busy mornings/evenings for some sips and noms?

  4. Q. says:

    And if you haven’t seen it, skate on over to LolDogs and watch yesterday’s video of a dog. Especially at 19 seconds into the video – - the date suggests it was shot in Haiti

    Love that bird! He’s right. That dog should “hush” when he’s performing. lol

    A burglar breaks into a house and starts to loot the place. A parrot in the room keeps on saying “Jesus is watching you.” Finally the burglar asks the parrot, “I suppose your name is Jesus?” The parrot responds, “No, I’m Moses, Jesus is the Rottweiler.”

        MAMA’S GIFTS

        Four brothers left home for college, and they became successful doctors and lawyers and prospered. Some years later, they chatted after having dinner together. They discussed the gifts they were able to give their elderly mother who lived far away in another city.

        The first said, “I had a big house built for Mama.”

        The second said, “I had a hundred thousand dollar theater built in the house.”

        The third said “I had my Mercedes dealer deliver an SL600 to her.”

        The fourth said, “You know how Mama loved reading the Bible and you know she can’t read anymore because she can’t see very well. I met this preacher who told me about a parrot that can recite the entire Bible. It took twenty preachers 12 years to teach him. I had to pledge to contribute $100,000 a year for twenty years to the church, but it was worth it. Mama just has to name the chapter and verse and the parrot will recite it.”

        The other brothers were impressed. After the holidays Mom sent out her thank you notes.

        “She wrote: “Milton, the house you built is so huge. I live in only one room, but I have to clean the whole house. Thanks anyway.”

        “Marvin, I am too old to travel. I stay home, I have my groceries delivered, so I never use the Mercedes. The thought was good. Thanks.”

        “Michael, you gave me an expensive theater with Dolby sound, it could hold 50 people, but all my friends are dead, I’ve lost my hearing and I’m nearly blind. I’ll never use it. Thank you for the gesture just the same.”

        “Dearest Melvin, you were the only son to have the good sense to give little thought to your gift. The chicken was delicious. Thank you.”

      They’re like kids. They learn their behavior from what they are allowed to get away with. That having been said, some species are noted for being mean. African Greys and Hawkheads fall into that category. And what seemed cute when you taught it can, will and does grate on the nerves after a (very short) while.

  12. TheCannyScot says:

    I own 7, soon to be 8, parrots. They learn phrases in context, just like you learned English. Don’t let anyone fool you into thinking parrots just parrot what they say. The only thing better that having a bird fly to your shoulder when you enter the room is having one say “I love you,” and knowing it means it.

    I stand corrected. My wife points out that I should leave room for when she was crying, Rupert (a recently lost, dear, dear Eclectus) licked a tear off her cheek and asked “What’s wrong?”

    Lubbly ploomage!

  17. Crazy says:

    I wish I had a parrot. Just the thought of an animal that can talk like us is cool. I like at the end when he started saying “Hush” to the dogs. Parrots often need a que to say something, and the que was the dogs barking because s/he always heard her/his master shouting it. Great Video!

    Yo ho, yo ho, a parrot’s life for me!
