[QUOTE="donna723, post: 210686, member: 1883"] Ha! That is so funny! What kind of bird is it? They're such clever little boogers! My daughter had a cockatiel but all he ever did was the sound of the phone ringing! Drove her nuts! When I was a kid, my cousin had a Beagle named Sparky and a little parakeet whose cage was right next to their back door. When Sparky wanted out, he'd stand by the door and whine and cry until one of them came to let him out. After a while they'd hear him but sometimes when they went to the back door to let him out, he wasn't there - he'd be off somewhere curled up sound asleep! They finally figured out that it was the [I]bird[/I] who had learned to make the same sounds as the dog wanting out! He not only could imitate the dog whining, he could perfectly mimic my aunt yelling, "[I]Dammit, Earl! Let the dog out[/I]!" [/QUOTE]
