From the article: How to Train Your Bird to Wave Hello
There's no doubt that birds are smart -- it seems like every parrot owner has a story of their pet's incredible intelligence! But what can your bird do? Let other bird owners know about the amazing tricks your bird can perform by sharing your story below. If you've ever felt like bragging about your bird (as most bird owners do) now is your chance to share your pet's accomplishments with the world! Share Your Tricks!

budgie tricks
- I have two parakeets, a blue male named Oliver, and a lime-green female named Sunshine. They're great buddies, and both very talented birds. I have already taught Oliver to wave on command, and give kisses. Sunny, being my newest edition, has learned along with Oliver to climb their little cage ladder on command. My advice for those who are teaching little tricks to start with, have plenty of treats and patience! Also be careful to not bore your bird, they'll forget about it as soon as it gets old. I'm still new to this, but thought I'd share! Good luck =)

Sidney is our smart African Grey parrot
- Sidney, our 18-year-old African Grey, whom we got the month after we got married, is so smart. He has about a 100 to 150 word vocabulary, much of which he puts into sentences too. He also mimicks my voice exactly, which is what Greys are known for, and my husband sometimes mistakes Sidney for me calling. (LOL) He also mimicks many sounds like the stove, microwave and the front door's squeak, when the door is opened, which hasn't done so since my husband oiled it about 15 years ago!! He sometimes responds when prompted, and his best trick is when we ask him, "Where's the kit cat?", he answers with a loud "MEOW"!! He's so very smart, keeps our home full of laughter and is always learning new things. Sidney is a blast, and we love him very, very much!! We don't have children, so our two birds and two dogs are our children whom are more spoiled and live better than most children do!

my parrot called "Space"
- "space" is my african gray parrot. He knows lots of words; has a amazing vocabulary! He can mimic a lazer, hum happy birthday, and he can say simple stuff like "hello", "good day", "your welcome", thank u, and "WAKE UP!" really LOUD. That is why I let him call me up in the morning! He's much better than any old alarm clock!
