TreeClimber, yes that was a gorgeous cockatoo on the Barretta show many years ago. I grew up watching that TV show with my family - such a cool show! I loved that bird too - so awesome! As far as I can remember, that's the first time I ever saw a parrot on TV before. Very cool character idea from the producers!
My Eclectus loves talking, making noise, around the clock, even in the pitch dark. Good thing we have our master suite upstairs so we don't have to hear him! LOL! I know he talks because I've come downstairs when I can't sleep and he'll be saying stuff and making noises. The Quaker is usually quiet until it's light out and the cage is uncovered.
A hummingbird would be a super cool bird to have as a pet. I don't know much about them, but they're soooo pretty!
