Does Rocco talk? He sometimes imitates the beeping of the microwave. Once, when he was screaming really loud, I went over and asked him what the fuss was about. He grabbed my finger with his foot, tilted his head sideways, and said very softly, "You're a GOOD bird!" He's never said it since then. Maybe I've been bad.
Rayzorblade, who used to post here, says it sounds like Rocco is trying to imitate my speech, but it's not clear enough to understand. (or maybe he's imitating my incoherence)
He loves my homemade food. In addition to pizza and lasagna, he also gets into my stuffed peppers, cabbage rolls, and split pea soup. He'll take it from my plate, spoon, or hand, but would much rather force his beak into my mouth to take whatever I'm chewing.
Here he is, waiting very patiently as I cook dinner.
