I Hate When My Female Parakeets Get Into My Business & Start Scolding Me With A High-Pitched Tone Of Voice…

It happened twice this week in 3 days. Again last night. Ray was sitting down with his neck hurting and asked me to heat up a little buckwheat filled neck pad in the microwave oven. So I walked over and picked it up and took it to the kitchen. Kiwi, whose cage is the closest to where he sits lit in on me. I heard her say “working” and scolding me in a high-pitched told. She kept going. She has heard Sweet Pea doing the same thing when I’d walk into the kitchen to start cooking. Those female birds do not want me to do anything for him or the boy. One evening we were sitting down eating. Ray said something about some soft cheese to put on the pilaf I made. The boy usually gets up and helps but he was gone that evening with his friend. I got up and got it from the refrigerator and set it down near his plate. I sat down and started eating. I had forgotten to get him a spoon to spoon it out. So he got up and got it himself. Sweet Pea very plainly asked “Are you working here?” In a very surprised tone of voice. 😂 I told her I guess he was. Now she is scolding me for doing anything for him. And she’ll go on and on with a high-pitched tone of voice too.

I have to wonder if other pets could talk if they would do the same thing in similar situations.
