Laurie Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 Klaus' latest is "falling." He falls off his lowest perch with a "klunk" then does some pitiful flapping 'til someone comes running. He did it earlier today when I was cleaning the bathroom (he's safely in his cage when that's going on...don't want him near cleaning solutions) and tricked my husband into letting him out. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmacca Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 max says hello when he first sets eyes on you and when you walk out the room he keeps wolf whistling and screaming hello till you answer him .and you know when he wants anything because as soon as you walk in the room with food he jumps to the front of his cage and keeps saying hello there till you give him something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdgranna Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Jiggy will call "Jay !"(this is what my husband calls me) in an annoyed sounding voice , in my husbands voice. If I do not instantly reply, she will make the sound of the phone ringing and call me to the phone also in my husbands voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tickle Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Mine makes only one sound so far. It sounds like the smoke alarm beep when the battery is low. Not alot though... Last night, I came home after about 3 hours of being away and said hello to him when I came in the door. He had been quiet before this so I was told. When I passed him to go into the kitchen, he started with the beeping noise and would not stop until I came back into the dining room where he was! I think he was telling me he was excited that I was home! I hope I was not reading too much into that...Wishful thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I think that was exactly what he was telling you, he was truly excited to have you home and he wanted you to pay him some attention instead of passing him by. They do not like being ignored so it was not wishful thinking. And believe me he will start making a lot more sounds than that beep, just give him some time and he will start imitating all sorts of sounds and then words.

tickle Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 OMG I am soooo excited! And that was just a little beep! I cannot wait to tell you guys what he is doing in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Its so funny that my two birds, Sunny a sun conure and Josey my grey, but especially Sunny will start calling for me as soon as they hear me pull up outside. It's like, oh boy, Mommy is home!!!:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twogreys Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Our two Greys call to us constantly, there is a conversation going on all the time - with hello's, come on thens, and a wide variety of whistles, chuckles and what I can only describe as cackles. To the casual observer or to those unlucky enough not to live with one (or more) of these remarkable birds we must seem totally gaga, and they would wonder where they put the butterfly net, just in case.

AzureClarity Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Hewie will start to wolf whistle if I'm gone too long for his liking and he wants me to come back. Sometimes he'll say hello, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherStrella Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Harrison will say "where's Heather?" "Where's Denis?" (my husband) and "Where's Valerie" (our disabled roommate)...she's generally alone when she says it...I don't recall her saying it while hanging with us in the living room. She also says "c'mere" but she's always scratching her head when she says it...almost like she's scratching a flea and telling it to "come here!"...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzureClarity Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Now, whenever I leave the room for too long or Hewie feels like playing with someone else, he'll go, "Come!" or "Come here!" Sometimes he'll even garner attention by pretending to be sick, i.e. fake coughing and sneezing.<br><br>Post edited by: AzureClarity, at: 2009/04/01 14:40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sallas Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 As soon as I start to walk away from them they make the Microwave beep noise (but 10 times louder). I think they noticed that when the microwave beeps, people go to it, so they are beeping thinking I will come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tycos_mom Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Tyco calls me mom and i always answer yes tyco moms here. If she wants me to come to her she says mom but really whiny like and the longer I take to come the whinier she getslol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 This is a great thread goes back to 9/07. It was very interesting to read through it. So I will also add to it: Ana Grey is almost 8 months old and is still "practicing." When she wants my attention or hears me she says, "Do, do" I think its part of the phrase I am trying to teach her "What'yu doing?" It's cute whatever it means to her!!!

Janfromboone Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Love Hannah Raes story. Mosfatal makes a point I've been wondering about. Do the birds understand the concept of names? Tobie will call the dogs one by one. Let's go Pogo, come on Tucker etc. But I'm not sure he looks at Tucker and knows Tucker is his name. When I walk into the room he sais "What's up Tobie". I keep saying to him, "you're Tobie, I'm mama, or I'm big bird (he used to say what's up big bird). I think he understands that "What's up Tobie" is a greeting, but doesn't know he just asked himself what's up. Do Your birds know their own names?

Raposa Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 These are such delightful stories! Jenna evidently has a two-tone sound that she only uses for me, at least according to my mom who lives with us and is at home during the day while I am at work ~smiles~ If I don't respond right away Jenna starts demanding "What are you DOING??? Want a shower? You are a GIRL! You're so bird! Hi sweetheart. Are you my baby bird?" She is so funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
