day welcoming us home with,"Hello, darling, how was your
day?" For people who wish to have that type of companion
in the form of an animal, a talking bird fits the bill very nicely. Also known as the Budgie, or Parakeet, this
common little bird is capable of learning a large number of
phrases and songs. Their voice tends to be low and not always
defined, and males tend to train better than females. Also called the Quaker Parakeet, this colorful
little bird is actually a small parrot.
They are known for
being very clever and social, developing large vocabularies of phrases and words. If you want a companion for life, this is
a good fit. The Blue-Fronted can live for up to 100 years,
or more. They have an excellent speaking voice, with
a strong ability to mimic human voices.
Very clever little birds, Indian Ringnecks
can develop a large vocabulary, and speak very clearly in
sentences. Not so much for mimicking the pitch of a human
voice, they more often speak in their own bird voices, though they can carry the mood
of the phrase. Known for being especially gender dimorphous
-- the male is green and the female bright red -- this
parrot is able to verbalize distinctly and mimic the tone and mood of language. While its capabilities are
strong, these abilities depend entirely on training from an early age.
Considered to be nearly as good as the Yellow-Naped,
with a smaller tendency to nip. Closely following the Yellow-Naped, with an
excellent ability to mimic human voices and love
for song. This pretty little black bird has an amazing
capacity for mimicking human voices, with a varied range of
pitch and tonality. Of the Amazon parrots, the Yellow-Naped is
the best known for its speaking abilities.
They love to sing
and are highly intelligent, with an uncanny ability to mimic human speech and cadence. The African Grey is widely considered to be
the smartest of the talking birds, and one of the most
intelligent in the animal kingdom overall. Some experts say they approach the ability
to speak and relate concepts on the level of a human toddler. Even at the highest level of ability, there
are still some birds that will not talk, no matter what you do or
how early you train.
Just as there are quiet, shy people, there
are quiet and shy birds. And, just as with
people, some birds are smarter than others..
