About 4 years ago my parents adopted a baby Sulphur Crested Cockatoo, he loved me and my dad but absolutely hated mum. He was so tame and could sing the song 'perfect' he enjoyed hugs. Unfortunately he got caught in his cage and we found him dehydrated. I loved him so much, I'll never forget him. I have a pet cockatiel called Bert now and he is just as tame. It takes a lot of patience to have parrots and I do understand your comments, they can bite fingers off with ease, if not handled properly.
Sorry about your Cockatoo. I have cried more than when some of my pet dogs have died than when my family members have died. If humans could be just 1% like animals then the world be a better place. You might like this. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7rfGEtALHYs.html

Training the speech birds was one of the listed 64 general professions in Ancient India. Happy to see such profession is still kept alive in the world.
Amazons can actually live for up to 85 years. The Amazons live the longest of all other parrots. Africa Grey's can live to be 50 years as well as McCaws. I moved out of my parents house are age 13 and I had always wanted a parrot. It took me a few years of training wild caught birds. That's not the easiest thing to do. I'm now 51 and have a Yellow Naped Amazon Parrot. Her name is Larry Bird and she's 15 years old. She sings many songs, I'm opera and I change the lyrics to make the song about birds. I have a 22 yr old girl, that Larry loves and so Larry will be willed down to her.
Hyacinths can live to be 90, same with other macaws. Other larger parrots also can live as long as amazons, such as cockatoos and grays, but you usually only find that in captivity where they aren't getting eaten by predators or sick from bad foods. Like humans, it all depends on the individual. We had a rather large collection of books on parrots in our library, sadly, when we got divorced, my wife wanted the books, so I just gave her what she wanted. So I don't have sources for my information. But you can probably find the information on parrot longevity in any major library.
They are called «Macaws», not «McCaws». Their name isn’t a European sirname. From a dictionary: «macaw (n.) species of large, long-tailed American parrots, 1660s, from Portuguese macau, from a word in a Brazilian language, perhaps Tupi macavuana, which may be the name of a type of palm tree the fruit of which the birds eat.» 🤗
These birds are ornery, cantankerous. "Groucho" has several songs but no one will know which is going to "pop" out. Hats off to the caretakers. A lot of work is behind this!
She was on Ellen with a parrot name keto but it didn't go so well, you guys should look that performance up it was sooooo funny. The bird was like NOT TODAY. LOL
I was looking for interviews to practice some voiceover editing, I can't believe I found this...!! It is the craziest and most sweetest thing I have ever seen!
All of you guys complaining about her talking, her podcast is about education, hence the discussion with the handler. The parrot cannot tell you about his diet and his daily life as a show bird.
I had a yellow crown amazon. I spent most of my time laughing my butt off. They ARE very particular about who they like, Mine didn't like WOMEN!! She was around MEN all the time. SHE got spoiled. If a woman showed up she was Dr Jekyl and Mr Hyde. BRAT!!!
