My grandpa has a parrot.It's very cute.
But it really doesn't like cats.Every time when it spots a cat outside the window ,it just began to squawk its head off.
It is very attached to my grandpa.So when let it out of its cage ,it perches on his shoulder and behaves itself when he's around.
But I never dare to let it out of its cate, because it's more than likely to give me a nasty nip if I do.
I like it anyway.It's very funny when it tries to do you.
Do you like birds?Do your or your family own one?What's it look like?

my grandmother always had canaries, but I don't really like birds, I don't like things that fly in my face. I prefer dogs and cats. My grandmother use to love to here the canary sing, to me it is just noise, especially when you are trying to listen to the television or talk on the phone.

hello,
ya i like the birds and i like especially the parrots very much. Parrots can imitate human voices and other sounds so well that you cannot tell whether you are hearing the real sound or the parrot’s imitation.
Parrots are not the only birds that can mimic our speech. The Hill Mynahs are also particularly good talkers, and the crow, starling, and blue jay can also learn to say a few words.
have a good day. take care and happy postings.

I love parrots, I always wanted to have a parrot. I would have one from a baby and teach it to talk and let it live in the house like one of the family!!
We did have a budgie from a baby, he was a beautiful bright green and he had such a character to him that I knew that he would talk one day, but my hubby bought the budgie because my son wanted him, I did not have time to care for a budgie, no one did. He was left to his own devices a lot of the time and I felt so sorry for him. But my Mum and Dad took a shine to him and so I gave him to them as I knew he would be taken care of.
2 years on the budgie now talks like you would not believe, my Mum and Dad love him and he loves them, happy ending!!

I like birds! I can whistle like a bird. My mom had a few canaries, although their nervous system is so sensitive that they often die in captivity! I like to hear the birds like parrots that can talk! Do they talk Chinese when in China?

I love birds. I had a budgie when I was a child and I loved it, but he didn't live very long unfortunately. I don't seem to have the time or space for a pet these days.
Whenever I visit a zoo or aviary, I love to check out the birds of prey. I am always fascinated by the ugly vultures, the soft owls and the awesome falcons. @bdhamiltonne (1)
