I'm battling a cold the past couple of days, and today before work I was blowing my nose a lot. River was watching and listening, looking fascinated by the whole thing. Next thing I hear is him mimicing nose blowing sounds! LOL! Such a werido!

I think its funny what they choose to copy from us. We could spend hours trying to get them to say a word or learn a trick and they decide they are going to copy "nose blowing", a swear word, a sneeze, a dog etc. Cheeky little fluffbutts - we wouldnt - or couldnt - be with out them

Oh I would just die if one of my guys made a farting noise! My two conures mock me when I cough or sneeze. I say mock because it sounds like they're doing a rude impersenation of me! I've been dealing with allergies so there's been plenty of coughing for them to mock. No nose blowing though. I guess come the first cold of the season I'll see who learns that sound first lol
