Elvenking Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Isaac is hilarious. I also find it funny that I now laugh about this sound that is so incredibly pure high pitched loudness.....maybe that frequency is getting burned out of my ear...who knows. Anyway, I know he knows I don't like it, and he uses it to express his displeasure with actions he disapproves of. I was putting him to bed tonight, and he 'beep'-ed right after each thing to close things down. After turning the TV off, after putting him in his cage like 3 seconds after hitting the perch....and three seconds after pulling the plug on his overhead lamp. Guaranteed....every time...every night. Just too funny. He's way more controlled than he was when he first discovered the power of this noise. He knows I ignore him when he does it...but he does seem to know somewhere that I do not like it....and I know it's his way of letting me know the things that he doesn't like. Thankfully he isn't overbearing with it. If someone brings something close to the cage, he will do the 'beep' of displeasure. If it persists, he will fluff up and go "whhhwwWWOOOoooww" like a swelling whistle. I think he teaches me parrot things. HA! I love him to death. He's out there burping and laughing at himself right now!!! Edited January 28, 2016 by Elvenking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray P Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Oh how I know that beep sound and how it makes your skin crawl. And they know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muse Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Megan does this high-pitched screech - it's an amplified version of the sound her cage door makes. She does it whenever she thinks she's going back in her cage. She also does the "woo" sound. That often precedes a bite if I am not quick enough.

SRSeedBurners Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Greycie went through a high-pitch shrill that nearly drove me off a cliff. It finally subsided after a few months and my discovery of wearing ear plugs 24/7 while in her presence so I could completely ignore it and not react. It came back a few weeks ago for a few days but haven't heard it since. Hope it stays gone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvenking Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Yeah it is the kind of sound that it takes practice to get over. I know it because others do cringe if get to hear that. On the plus side, I'll know not to put something away if he beeps. "Okay I'll leave that out for you" (if I can...LOL). It's funny to just understand him so well.
