Where do they get it?

🐦️ ‘You don’t work here”...my parakeet just now when he was chattering! I never know what will come out of their little beaks.

@MarineBob I turned it off a couple hours ago. They can remember things that they heard months ago.

@MarineBob After I started taking collagen for my back I wasn’t hurting like before. They’d see me doing some chores a lot faster than I was doing before and start chanting “Working, Working” in a sing-song voice. That was funny. They do seem to have a concept of what work is.

@cherokeepatti That is the truth. I had one who used to watch the Chicago Cubs with us. He knew what time they were on, who the announcer was, and what the people said (Har-ry, Har-ry, Har-ry) and if you didn't put it on TV, he hollered until you DID.

@MaryJanine I had a parakeet that learned to whistle like a siren, didn’t know where he learned to do that till one evening the Bad Boys COPS song came on then he started making the siren sound

@cherokeepatti It appeals to them. My first cockatiel started to bounce when he heard "The Andy Griffith Show" theme. Later, he started to whistle with it when he had it down pat. He also liked the Blue Brother's version of "Rawhide".
