Next door's parrots have started shouting "Puppies"
They live in the conservatory next door but can see, and obviously hear, me with the puppies in the garden.
Who'd have thought they'd pick up on that

[Thelma Sanders]

and does it use the right tone of voice? some of them are very clever mimics

My aunt had a mynah bird that drove her dog crackers by calling it all the time. Caught her husband out a time or two as well, calling him

[mothhawk]

Who knows what other phrases they are picking up from you VC?

Dread to think MH
The parrots have very entertaining conversations. They call the neighbour's dogs too..........

Sad really 'cos Ella was the old alsatian who is buried at the end of the garden

Some friends of mine have an African Grey who is an amazing mimic. He says "See you later" in the husbands voice when ever someone opens the front door to leave. People open the door without leaving just to hear him say it. He has an amazing vocabulary but can be very vicious. They daren't let him out when their daughter's around since he landed on her Sunday lunch and pinched her roast potato.

Burglar creeping round an unlit house when he hears a voice "Be careful Arbuthnot's watching you!" He freezes but cannot see or hear anything. He carries on looking for something valuable to steal, when a few minutes later the voice says "I've told you, your looking for trouble Arbuthnot's watching you!!"

He is now that worried he switches on a small torch and spots a parrot in a cage. "Was that you?" he asks. "Yes" say the parrot. "Arbuthnot, that's a darn silly name you've got." says the burglar. "Oh" says the parrot "My names Polly ....Arbuthnot is the ...........................Bullmastiff watching you from the corner!!!!"

All he needs is a little rake.

Any updates on the other puppies, Spud, Ted, Petal and Stan? How are Mary, Bess and Rosie getting on?

[Thelma Sanders]

Charlie is gorgeous

[Scarlet]

Stan..he's getting cheeky!

[Scarlet]

He's a difficult to get a photo of - he doesn't stay still for a second and if you can get him to sit, he wiggles on his belly to get as close as possible in the hope he gets a cuddle

Gorgeous...! Dots are to make the message longer so that I can post.
