Pick a Little, Talk a Little

Meet the Chatterbox Parrots, a family of parrots including these three rowdy ringnecks known as the “Three Stooges” for the way they endlessly natter and poke at each other — and their human mama. (via Murray C.)

    They share so many traits, but they’re individual in more than color. Each one has a different repertoire of poses! I think an extended period of listening to voices at that pitch might drive me nuts, but they are also entertaining and just fascinating!

    I wonder what “peek-a-boo” means to a birb. I know “tickle-tickle” is commonly used (by hoomans, anyway) for scritchies.

    Do these birds remind anyone else of the muppet space aliens?

    Those birbs are hilarious! I wanted the video to go on and on.

    Plus parrots always remind me of a beloved David Sedaris piece, “Repeat after Me”–yes, parrots can talk, but they have no idea what they’re saying.

        I’d put my money on parrots knowing more of what they talk about than some people.
