Do your pets ever learn to do new things (spontaneously)?

My female parakeet, Kiwi, likes to squawk. Last night she and the other female were "Squawk-talking" back and forth...something new and it seemed like they were talking with each other.

No doubt they were talking to each other.

@GJOFJ3 You know what else was funny? Later on two of the birds were fussing, I can't stand the noise they make when they do that...I was sitting in my recliner and told them to knock it off, that I'd get up and come over and put my hand on their cage if they didn't stop (it works)...the oldest male who is in his own cage piped up and said "What did we do?"...haha he usually says "I didn't do it"....
