Creative Parrot?

[Mansley]

Harry is my first african grey and i cant beleive some of the sounds and noises which keep coming out of his little beak.

 

I was wondering does anyone know, can parrots just mimic whistling or can they make there own tunes?

 

I keep hearing differnt whistling tunes and think he is making them up himself as i dont remember ever whistling those with him if that makes sense lol

They make up their own tunes and sounds. They also put together a combination of several at a time mixing words, whistles, clucks, knock s etc.

 

It is very amusing isn't it? :-) Sometimes just makes you laugh. B)

It's pretty hillarious what they can put together on their own, Zahzu's latest is *knock knock* hello baba, how are you? Gimme a kiss *mwaaaah* !

lol thats brilliant. I cant stop laughing at him he knows how to make me laugh aswell.

 

He is just about saying his first word his hello isnt clear yet but you can tell hes trying. so sweet.

Yes, you'll find they can be very creative and quite musical too! My little Lyric doesn't talk but he whistles tunes and even adds a vibratto effect to some of them. He gets very creative and it makes me laugh too.
