I changed the routine today...Buddy got wet before Milton. While I was showering Buddy, the bathroom door opened...and in walked Milton...

Milton: "YOU WET?"

Me: Yes, I'm wet...you can get wet next...

Milton: (sees and hears Buddy yelling) "DAT BUDDY WET...DAT BAD...WANNA WET NOW!"

Me: I have to put Buddy back now...

Milton: "ABOUT TIME...YOU BOTH QUITE WET!"

I hand Buddy off to my wife, who's shaking her head and laughing...then I pick up Milty and bring him next to the spray..he drinks a little, then dives right under the spray.

Milton: " I QUITE WET...WE BOTH WET...I LOVE MORE"...

This is what happens when you change a routine on Milton...;)
It livens up your life, Bob & Missus Bob

If you look at all the time related and value based concepts in that conversation it just blows your mind. And the fact that he is able to relate all that back to you appropriately.... amazing.
I'm constantly surprised on how Milton expresses himself. Again, water seems to stimulate his vocalizations. I still like the way he found out rain was "wet" and how he found the words to express that fact...

Oh Milty! You must share the water. I imagine sharing isn't a big part of your vocabulary ;)

You're correct with that thought...everything Milton sees is his...but I assume that's a pretty basic thing that all 'toos have...:rolleyes:

I think it's a thing most parrots and birds in general have. What's mine is mine, what's yours is mine, it's all mine....

Dobby decided the brand new, never worn eclipse shirt I got for my birthday was his when he found it on the floor after I forgot about it after breaking down the boxes in here. He has now customized it to his liking :banghead:
