spookyhurst Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 To go along with Talon's tv topic, does you grey have a favorite song? Nikko likes songs with lots of bass and drums in it. The other day, she was dancing to Faith No More's "We Care A Lot" and 50 Cents "P.i.m.p" (she's a big fan of "fiffy" ). She also loves it when I sing the "Oo-De-Lally" song from Disney's Robin Hood. I just change the lyrics to be, "Nikkie Beak and Robin Hood are running through the forest, Oo-de-lally, Oo-de-lally Golly, what a day." Sometimes I substitute Spencer James (my dog) for Robin Hood.

Talon Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Talon sings a song I made up about a birdie. She loves to sing. when I sing to her, and she doesn't know the words, she just sings laaaaaaaaaa very softly over and over until I stop. (Maybe she's trying to tell me something...hmmm But she doesn't seem to have a favorite yet.:whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 I leave the radio on during the day while I am at work but I don't notice she sings anything she hears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elvenking Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I have been teaching Isaac the Andy Griffith Show theme....and he has a decent chunk of it down. My mom was cracking up hearing him whistle the tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oblivion Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) @judygram, I do the same and I'm surprised I haven't heard a common commercial jingle or anything for the last year and a half yet. One thing I did partially teach to Spencer is the 5-note theme from Close Encounters of the Third Kind. He picked it up pretty quickly and would do it as a contact call for a bit - one of us would start and the other would finish - but he hasn't done it in a while now. One of my phone ringers is "Axel F" from Beverly Hills Cop, and he REALLY gets animated when I let that play through, so maybe he works on that when I'm not around.

Zoom Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'm putting together a bird playlist. So far we've got "Valerie" by Amy Winehouse, several songs by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass, a little reggae, and Canary Yellow Car by Ray Bonneville. The criteria for a song making the playlist is that all three of my birds have to consistently get excited and vocal when they hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoom Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Thanks for the suggestions! I'll let you know how my birds like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Sophie's favorite... " take me out to the ballgame". She loves all songs that kids have taught her, mostly rap. ( clean songs only!) She is quite the poet, and loves rhymes. Her favorite " the cat in the hat". Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chezron Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Brutus knows the Andy Griffith theme song, and sometimes I wished he had never learned it <G>. He always says after whistling the song, "Good Song!" He "dances" to some songs that he likes. He bobs his head and sometimes moves his feet. Lately, because his brother amazon knows the first line of "I Left My Heart in San Francisco" he has been singing that too. I never knew that Greys could sing.

greyturkey Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Pepper enjoys Roger Whittaker... Defiantly not my type of music! But she loves it, she dances, and whistles. When she is left alone at night and i am cooking supper she will whistle a complete song. She is a very smart girl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koekie Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 My Koekie really enjoys this song: He immediately starts singing when he hears this. My radio is always on when I at school. And when I'm home, I have CD's with nature sounds for the birdies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
