BIRDS TALKING LIKE HUMANS

I dont think people fully grasps how crazy it is that a bird can speak human language like we are conditioned to just accept it so easily but its honestly mind blowing

2:09 that man genuinely enjoying Corvelle's barking is so wholesome

Meanwhile in the parallel universe... “Talking Human”

3:16 dude that parot is like singing a 1920s version

that one bird that kept barking is the best one

"Peek-a-booo!!" "No" That got me giggling

For everyone who's wondering: 1. Hyacinth Macaw 2. Common Starling 3. Yellow-naped Amazon 4. Rainbow Lorikeet 5. Bare-eyed Cockatoo 6. Yellow-naped Amazon 7. Ringnecked (Rose-ringed) Parakeet 8. Red-shouldered (Hahn's) Macaw

3:00 that parrot has the softest voice ever

The one that sings clementine is amazing

3:16 When he started singing I was like “what that bird has a better voice than I do” 🤣

3:00 that bird looks like an enthusiastic housewife greeting everyone at a cocktail party

1:32 that parrot has such a fluent voice

3:09 they're waving... my heart...

the bird saying hallo with his han was nice

I didn’t know that starlings could mimic speech. Neat.

3:14 that bird can sing better than I ever will lol 😂

1:31 is so good wth

3:15 Mind Blowing!!!!!🤯🤯🤯

My father has a pair of lovebirds. He recently got an idea of just how smart they are. They try to copy him saying 'hello' but as most parrot lovers probably know, lovebirds aren't very good talkers. The best they can do is more like 'eh-wo-o' but they try. Well, my dad lived in China atm. He lives in an area with a LOT of rats and big holes at the top of walls for ventilation...so rats get it. Well, My dad was often worried about their birds because of the rats, and the birds would get nervous when they had to chase a rat out of the area....until one event. Now they don't have rats. Which is weird. EVERYONE has rats, that's just how that area is, but not them. My dad says he put 2 and 2 together the other day when he witnessed what those clever little birds were doing. right before this strange phenomenon, they had a dying rat come into the room next to where the birds were. The thing had been poisoned or something (bitten by snake was also possible considering how the thing died). It made horrible screaming and screeching noises while peeing and running in circles until it finally died. Well, they cleaned everything and got rid of the thing but... from that day forward, no rats. _at all._ Then a week or so ago, my dad got up in the night to get something from that section of the house and heard the same noises the dying rat had been making. He went in and saw that the two lovebirds were taking turns screaming and screeching like a rat that was dying in horrible agony. He's since found that they do that each and every night now. He says he doubt they're doing it for the fun of it. He's pretty sure they know exactly what they're doing.

My Chopper boy talks in full sentences. His longest sentence so far I have recorded is, 'Of course you should pick me up!' He says so many things, and everyday he learns more. Right now he is learning to sing What a wonderful world, and Twinkle twinkle. My other bird has been picking up on it too, and they have started having conversations at night together. It is crazy to listen to, or believe!

5:00 This had me crying at this point, so, alone in my room, to a recorded bird, I yelled PEEK-A-BOO.

Just a reminder that you shouldn’t mindlessly go out and buy a bird (or any animal for that matter). Just because you feel the urge to go get one.. DON’T. Unless you are well informed, have the money for their costs ( vet checks, food, toys, etc..) and you have the s p a c e! also you can’t forget one important thing you need. Responsibility. If you can barely take care of yourself..I wouldn’t recommend getting one.

All I can think of is that bird that everyone kept saying "you're a bird!" To and it repeated it back until one day it was in the other room and quietly said " *I'm* a bird" as if realizing and the owner almost dropped what they were holding. Also the bird who sang oh my darling clementine sings better than me wth ;°;

That bird is a better singer then half of us here 😂

I like corvell

Aww when the cockatoo waved was so cute.

If I get a bird, I'll teach it to say I like ya cut g

"My name is HeY!" -Birbirb

The green one singing better than most boy bands

1:20 I have a starling, and she just figured out how to mimick my mom's parakeet. I guess you could say she has begun to parrot the parrot!

2:56 when you haven't slept for days...

One thing that really fascinates me about voice mimicking birds is that, if you trained them well enough, you could literally tell them, “hey, what’s your name?” And they will say their name. If you ask them to make a sound of a cat, they make the sound of a cat, So fascinating.

Dinosaurs then: *I rule the earth itself* Dinosaurs now: *I can mimic humans*

Birds are just really good beatboxers that can fly 3:55

3:04 look at his face smiling and saying hi seeing this for the first time

I had no idea starlings could speak!!! also the cockatoo waving “hello” with his foot was the cutest thing!

something else that I think is under appreciated with birds mimicking speech is their ability to recognize and stay on pitches

3:23 that singing bird😘

(1:00) Person: “Say birdbird!” Auto-generated captions: “Say *buttburn!”*

When you realize a bird could sing better than you...

At 3:16, you see a bird that can sing better than I can

The green bird that sings the song is talented. Truly is a wonderful bird.

this sounds like my high school class when those kids in the back start setting off each other's tourrettes by accident lmao, it's honestly great that we were allowed to laugh too

We must have been so spooked when we discovered that some birds could speak XD

The third one is impressive

The bare eyed cockatoo was the sweetest thing I have ever seen.

My favorite is the bird that perfectly imitated her owners laugh

Living in Australia I must say I do appreciate seeing parrots of all kinds free in the wild.....Captive birds have no freedom.

As soon as I move out i'm getting a bird. Those lil' things are adorable.

I like how the Hyacinth Macaw talked. So adorable

I adore hyacinth macaws. They're gorgeous and seem pretty sweet.

We had a number of parakeets that talked! One got so taken with himself we actually had to remove the mirror from his cage because he wouldn’t leave his own reflection long enough to eat or drink! He just sat there kissing the mirror and flirting with himself!

How wonderful to see a bare-eyed cockatoo! First one I ever saw was in a bird room at a pet store in Ottawa, Canada, and I didn't see her when I first entered. All of a sudden I heard the most explosive "HELLO!" to my left, and when I looked it was this gorgeous bare-eye! I should have lived in Australia, with my love of the birds, but they seem to love me equally. At a picnic lunch in Ku Ring Gai Chase National Park, we were joined by NINE Kookaburras, one of which, a juvenile, flew to me and hung out on the arm of the chair I sat in. Birds make my heart flutter!

One time I was in a bird store and the owner kept *her* birds in the store as well, and I was looking at feed when I heard in a really deep voice, “*hello*” and it scared me to death but it was an Amazon behind me 💀💀💀

What type of bird was the singing green one?

Imagine what the family will go through when these special pets passed away.😩

I taught a cockatoo at the pet store to says scratches once. He loved head and neck scratches. A little moodier than his sibling who didn't learn to talk before being bought.

2:55 hey its that mean bird off of Rio he looks just like him lol🤣

You would think that any creature that could possibly talk would be an ape, monkey or chimp...BUT A BIRD!! Amazing!

That first parrot is beautiful. Also love the bare-eyed cockatoos.... they are always hilarious

That first bird is so beautiful! 😍

I would’ve never guessed a starling could talk sort of kind of LOL

LOL ! Adorable " Peek-a-peek-a-boo" birdie ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I have the same kind of Bird. I’m surprised he likes people and loves to talk in sentences since the prior owners daughter beat his feet with a wooden pole when he was talking too much or being too noisy and broke them - his toes and kept his cage turned to the wall and they threw small parakeet food into . the cage to eat ! into bottom of cage expecting that he would go to the bottom of the cage and eat like a parakeet. When I rescued him , he was all skin and bones. I’ve had him for almost three years now. He’s very happy and healthy and talks all day long. He says Hi Jordan or call out for me and he says Maaaaaaa I love it and I love that God put Jordan in my hands to give him a wonderful rest of his life.

2:06 he does it better than denzel washington in training day

The way how she talks is so good 1:31

They are all lovely! Especially the last five! 😃 💖

I sure didnt know that a common bird all over the south where I live could talk! That blows me away! Never wouldve thought that!

That baby just wanted to play peekaboo 😭 such a mean momma

Not only can they speak , but they somehow learn what the words mean . That’s so insane to me .

The first one was ADORABLE.

Omg, even the bird has perfect vibrato

💯 per cent we should be impressed 👏 👌👍 🙌 . I have been following Buster the way he engages with everyone and their dogs is adorable 🤗

That last peek a boo one lol

First bird had an attitude that I'm here for, fam rly ain't wanna say apple.

That first blue bird is absolutely gorgeous.

omg wow i loved the parrot that was waving and the one singing! their so cute!

I wish i had a bird

Yo the Amazon singing was insanity I’d listen to that for hours

The green bird singing scared tf out of me!!!! That’s straight out of a horror film after the m****r scene 🥴

2:20 This is not a joke. CORONA.

1:41 How did she do the car alarm?!!!🤔🤯😍🥰

My starling is such a great talker, I love him!

OMG the first one is huge! I would be low-key scared to be near that beak!

that Hyancith is a gentle giant!

3:00 nigel from rio?

This is honestly one of the most fascinating things ever.

The first green one was amazing 🦜

I like all of them

This is great.

Probably one of the smartest animals I’ve ever seen

My darling Clementine was amazing! So in tune as well.

How fascinating! I can’t believe they can do that! I really want to know how they can do that! I’ve tried to research but it seems like no one really knows how they do it except they seem to have some type of voice box that’s different from other birds. I just can’t believe how cool it is to hear then do that.

I lost my bird 2 weeks ago I miss her a lot .😔😔

Dude, the first parrot is like a cartoon come to life. It’s insane

Burnburn says "hey" so innocently like a child :D

@3:00 I though it was a robot

Corvell is very talented. 😘San..SM..

The singing parrot was my favorite!

"ok fine, Peekaboo." "PEEKABOO!!" "no-"
