I honestly never knew they could! I’m not a huge fan of birds, mostly because the ones I would love to have require too much care (on top of having to find someone to inherit the bird when I croak), so I haven’t spent much time learning about them. How sad! If I had known that when I had the bird, perhaps I could have taught it a few words....maybe it’s time for me to get another one, if hubby will let me (he wants a bunny, but I would settle for both).
Oh cool! Birds and bunnies would be really nice. I hope that you both get the pets that you want.
