Cricket
is spoiled-rotten and is a very loving, affectionate and
funny parrot. His plumage is beautiful... this picture does not do it
justice. He gets tons of attention and loves it that way! He talks,
although with such a small voice box, it is not always clear. Some of
his favorite words to say are "What?", Whatcha' doin'?",
"What do you want?", "Hello" (when the phone rings),
"I love you", "Nutriberri", Go night night" and
"Cricket" (which was the first word he ever said). And, of
course, he makes many sounds including whistles, peeps, the microwave
sounds, the house alarm door-opening-sound, kissing, clucks, and he
loves to tell me, "Shhhhhhhhhh!" HA HA He does tricks, too,
like 'flipper', where he flips over on my finger then pulls back up;
'backwards flipper' (falls backward); 'shake hands'; 'wave'; 'nodding'
(especially when he wants something I am eating); and everybody's
favorite: 'headstand' (he holds onto a finger, then
"headstands" into the palm of my other hand). I could write
forever about his antics, but I will close by telling you how sweet he
is, like when I cry, he makes the sniffling sound like me, then leans
over to my face and "kisses" away my tears! He stole my
heart... what a little "tweetheart"! :-)
