Sad story pertaining to this video.

Meet my new banker this past week, a couple of times. We got chatting and discovered we both own birds, both bird crazy. I saw pic's of her birds, and Vicki watch a little video of Mishka. She mentioned that none of her birds talk.
We really clicked and got on well. When visiting Vicki on Friday, I noticed her left eye was swollen, but in a weird way. Vicki opened up to me and said she has a brain tumor. I was devastated, we both started crying. This is her fourth tumor, thank god it's not cancerous. They are going to operate once again.

She said she would love it if Mishka could just say her name.

This morning I sat with Mishka, she in her cage, me sitting close by saying to her
Vicki give me a kiss
Vicki I love you and whistled
Within minutes Mishka was was saying her name etc.

Tuesday morning, I will go to the bank, and send the video via blue tooth.
I know this will give Vicki a reason to smile, even for a short while.

Antoinette...that is so thoughtful of you. People who don't have the capacity to really love a parrot just will never know, will they? Mishka is a real gem.

Von it was so worth the effort, just to see her smiling
It was such a small effort on our side, yet made such a big impact on Vicki

That is the sound of my cell phone when receiving a message
We actually try not to teach her telephone ring tones, OMG she will drive us mad
When Mishka likes a sound or a word, she says in continuously for a few days.

If you are interested there is a thread Training your bird to talk
I explain how I teach Mishka new words etc

I reckon never, here's living proof

My friend Barbara's AG Jessie is 16 years old, he only started speaking the beginning of this year, saying a few words. Barbara used the same method I use. try it out, you have nothing to lose.
