I want to get this down while it’s fresh in my mind, because it’s astonishing. The following conversation took place between my bird, Phoenix, and I just a few minutes ago.
| Phoenix | Hello! Phoenix good bird, Phoenix wants cracker. Good cracker. Good. |
| Scott | *gives Phoenix a bird treat* Here ya go! Cracker! |
| Phoenix | Good. mumblemumble Cracker good. Phoenix pretty bird mumblemumblemumble |
| Scott | What? Pretty bird what? |
| Phoenix | mumblemumble Phoenix birdy mumblemumble no biting, no biting, good bird, no, no no. |
| Scott | What, Phoenix? What did Phoenix say? |
| Phoenix | *LOUD squawk* HUSH! HUSH! Phoenix talk to PHOENIX! HUSH! |
| Scott | Uhhh…OK. |

I have to say, Scott, that that sounds a more intelligent conversation than a few I’ve had today!

Scott You have an alien. Beware. Jettison! Spooky. See AOJ for talking to animals. Is it all around us?

Could have been worse – Phoenix could have had an imaginary friend! Talking to yourself is quite normal, I do it all the time…!!!

Hiyo Scott!
I’ve been reading for quite awhile without posting. Hope you don’t mind. Good stuff on the parrot, I can’t figure out what the one I have downstairs is saying half the time, but it sounds familiar.
Also.. I just happened to pull up your webcam page a few moments ago. Not sure if you’ve realized it, but someone has changed your appearance quite a bit from the last time I saw you! Definitely a different look, looks good!
Anyways.. just wanted to say howdy. So, howdy.
