The Twilight Zone
Debra and I both sing to the birds often. A few months ago, Debra started dancing up to Odi's cage singing a modified version of the old Mitch Rider tune, "I love you Odi, Oh, Oh, Odi. Oooh I love you Odi, Oh, Oh, Odi." She would snap her fingers and bob her head.
After a while Odi would fluff up his feathers, bob his head from side to side, and raise one foot in a pretend snap and make the snapping sound with his voice. This routine is repeated several times a day and has been a great source of entertainment for our friends and guests.
Last weekend I was in the kitchen and I hear Olivia singing in her best gravely voice, "Odi, Oh, Oh, Odi...Odi, Oh, Oh, Odi" and making a snapping sound. Odi was on the top of his cage, fluffed up, foot pretending to snap, and bobbing his head from side to side.
Rod Serling, eat your heart out.
