So lots of people have parrots that can whistle this classic tune. I figured I'd try to get Perjo to sing it eventually, it's a long tune so I wanted to wait till she was older and started talking. But yesterday I said what the heck. So I found a youtube that someone made in which they have the whistling only on a loop, with a 15-20 second break in between each repeat.
Now I don't beleive in playing a sound over and over again for hours to teach a bird, I think it's a bit torturous, but a short loop for 15 minutes seems reasonable. So I did it.
And what do you konw , this morning that little stinker is trying to sing The Andy Griffith tune. She's not getting it right, but she's got the melody and timing down, just getting her different notes a bit mixed up, and I can tell she's really trying to get it down each time she tries it.
Truly amazing to witness them in their process .
