Our talking pet magpie is truly amazing. He totally surprised us when we first heard him say peach come here. We never knew that magpies could mimic speech but Pie is such a character and also very fascinating.

One of the most fascinating things to me about bird mimicry is that they copy exactly what they hear; right down to the acoustics of a room where they learned a sound. It's not that they understand "oh this sound should echo" but more a testament to just how versatile their vocal system is, and how detailed their retention of sound.

Pie chasing Peace while chanting "get ready for bed" is precious.

I speak with a magpie daily and he tells me hello, his name, hes a good boy and smart then we laugh together and make trippy noises at each other.

You can tell that Pie is trying to say so much more. Pie wants to have a conversation with you. 🦜

The coughing is so realistic. I got sick and had a cough for 3 weeks and My African Grey parrot learned to cough and sounds exactly like mine, hahah!

Wow I distinctly hear the magpie say "Get ready for bed". Never knew they were capable of speech.

He is trying to say a lot more, and wonders why he can't. That drives him crazy.

Corvids are the most intelligent of the bird family.

Birds don't even have lips but they speak so clearly.

I had tears in my eyes laughing when Pie was telling Maple to get ready for bed :D Far too funny, and adorable!

"Get ready for bed get ready for bed!" "Caw caw caw!" "Come here, come here!" Pissed caw caw

I really like to speculate how a bird language actually works. I'm convinced that there are nuances in what they're saying which go beyond the actual words and tones. There's no doubt in my mind that they have extremely advanced communication that we cannot perceive.

He is a beautiful bird. I love how he even has the soft accent that your good wife speaks with...he even mimics her giggle..Awesome.
