I think owls are awesome.

Owls are very beautiful looking Birds. I think for pure eye candy, from the owl family the Barn Owl for me wins it. We regularly see a pair of them perching on the trees since we live near woodland.

We have too many gorgeous wild birds here to ever consider having one as a pet.

But glad you are enjoying the new member of your family I would have gotten another dog myself!

Its difficult in an apartment but as soon as I move into a house, I might get one more dog.

I have a cockatiel who I've lovingly named, Phoenix

I still remember when I taught him how to fly. I've also taught him how to whistle "girl call" (don't exactly know if that "tune" actually has a name, but close enough). He can also whistle Star Wars - Empire Theme Song, Natural Geographic Theme Song, and Happy Birthday.

I'm still trying to teach him Auld Lang Syne (for those who do not know, that's the song they play during New Years). And I'm also trying to teach him to sing an old clock tune.

Oh well going around and round talks with breeder someone contacted me this morning about Adopting his Greys this morning since he can't have them on his apartment anymore . So looks like i will have both male/females with cage .

Here's the pic of babies i am adopting They will be home soon . Will keep everyone updated how it goes . I know my dogs will be pissed since attention is going to birds for a while .

Be mindful of how your dogs may interact with your new feather friends. Some dogs can be aggressive toward birds, almost cat like (yes, some dogs will eat some birds)

About three years ago my GF had so many birds i wanted to put a gun to my head.. Some of the larger ones like the Macaws could be heard a half a block away.. We still have three different species of bird in the house but the big ones are gone and i dont miss em even a little bit..

We have an African grey called Jack. He's 8 years old.

His volcabulary includes:
- Singing the Micky Mouse march
- Singing Somewhere over the rainbow
- Singing the Super Mario Bros. theme tune
- Meowing
- Barking
- Calling the cats and dog's name
- A LOT of swear words

He also has phonecalls with himself. He'll ring, then start both sides of the conversation, talk in 2 different voices for a few minutes, laugh, and then say "Ok, I'll talk you you later...bye" and then beeps to put the phone down.

Oh and he dances pretty well too.

I love African Grey's - they are so intelligent.

It will be hard to train them to talk. Maybe impossible.

A single bird is boring, easy to train.
BIRDS are busy with each other,they don't want to learn from you.
