Chattering Lory, 18yrs old (Sweet Pea)
I've seen youtube vidoes of dancing parrots and love them! Sweet Pea surprised me about a year ago, by dancing to the rhythm of the clicking of the tv remote control. She was sitting on my lap and I was changing channels on the tv with the remote, and all of a sudden she starts raising her body high and dipping her head forward and doing that in a cute little rhythm, she also was vocally imitating the clicking noise of the remote control, which btw doesn't sound all that loud, but to her all noises are heard and imitated louder, lol.

Now, I can get her to dance by snapping my fingers, or even humming. If I wave my finger in front of her, like a music conductor, she will start singing and humming. If I just silently dance in front of her, she'll also start singing and humming. I've got a video on youtube of her doing her little dance for a second or two.

My Youtube channel is "Nasotang" and I have other videos of Sweet Pea/Baby on there.

Georgie was a dancing queen. People would come over and ask (immediately, as EVERYONE seems to do when they see someone with a bird, grrr) "does she talk?" and i said "no, but she really can dance!"
And, yep, she also would get her groove going if i just started clapping my hands and humming.
Gilbert isn't dancing, yet......
They are SO FUNNY when they dance!!! I show Gil the youtube videos of the other dancing birds and maybe he will discover his inner Travolta.
