Squacking really depends on every individual bird. My birds don't squack at all. If they did, I would be annoyed too. I hate noise.....even music. I can listen to it for sometime but can't tolerate it for long. I can't stand listening to noisy kids, or noisy dogs, or noisy squacking birds either. I like quietness.

Our neighbor's dogs make MUCH more noise than our birds ever do. My birds only sing in the morning, when we wake them up, and even that is only for a few minutes. They make random *squeaks* every now and then, but really no noise at all. Muffin will squack when she wants to tell us something.....like if her food bowls need to be refilled, or if she wants to be covered at night, but otherwise, our house is always silent with the world's most peaceful birds. They don't make noise at all. Most cockatiels don't actually. I've cared for many of my friend's tiels, and only one of them was noisy. The rest were all quiet. I took care of my friend's conure for 2 weeks a while back though, and he was so noisy my mom couldn't wait for him to leave. We LOVED him, but he was too noisy for us. I don't think I could have a bird like that. Like I said, it depends on every bird's individual personality. They're all different. My neighbor's dog is barking 24/7. He's barking right now. My birds are quiet. You can find annoying, noisy animals in every species, and that doesn't mean the whole specie is like that. It depends on the animal, and it also depends on how they're raised. Heck you can even find noisy, annoying humans, and very quiet humans, and they're from the exact same species.
