That high-pitched little voice is oddly charming. Good.

AGREED

Glad to share! Apollo has since learned "Don't worry, be happy" and "Happy Birthday", which he sang to me non-stop during my birthday week. I will have to post updated videos soon as I get the time!

Baby is not a good talker, but he is a VERY good whistler. Takes about 4 weeks or so to teach him a new tune, and he will get it exactly right over time. He does a pitch perfect imitation of the microwave tones (and he'll do it as soon as I reach for the buttons, which tickles me).

GOOD GOD THIS IS TOO CUTE FOR ME

Excuse me while I go into my corner and just die of cuteness overload.

This needs to be illegal my chest actually hurts from the cuteness

I think my heart just exploded from the cuteness!

**dissolves into a gibbering pile of tears**

Excuse me while I go mop up my brain, it melted from cute-overload. Apollo is ADORABLE!!!

I think I might have an aneurysm good god that was so cute.

Love love love this. My cockatiel used to say "hello poppy" 💗 beautiful creatures

I literally just started going, "Noooooooo. It's too cute. NooooOOOooo."

NO ONE PERSON SHOULD HAVE THAT MUCH POWER

Actually squealing with delight!

I literally cannot breathe, my chest is all tight from the cuteness overload! AHHH he's such an awesome little birdie!

I just lost $452 in cancelled plane tickets and am missing my week's vacation because I've got the respiratory flu from hell, but this. made. my. day. Thank you, Apollo, for doing the impossible!

this was hard to watch because I kept flailing around and hitting my hands/arms/body off everything and people were wondering wtf I was doing

8 years later and I still come watch this when I'm feeling down. I don't know if Apollo is still with us, but he is the absolute cutest, most purest birb 💜

I have watched this one too many times. He's just so cute!

That is the cutest thing I have ever seen!

D'aaaw.

How did you teach him? Did you food reward him or just like repeat it over and over? Honestly this is the cutest thing I've seen a cockatiel do.

OTOH, parrots are some of the few birds with appreciable senses of taste, so they do respond well to treat rewards. Cockatiels will often do what you want them to just because they figure out that you do want them to. I occasionally treat Baby, but not for particular behaviors. He still tries to do what I want as best he understands, just to please me.

daaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwww

*HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHNNNNNGGG*

I just trailed off into this highly obnoxious aaawwwwwWWWWWHHHHHHH

Someone get JonTron.

The only word my 'tiel, Baby, knows is Peek-A-Boo. Apollo enunciates better, but it's otherwise quite similar.

Oh that's cool! Yes I was told they don't speak many words, but rather love to sing. Apollo can now also say his name, and he's learning "Hola", but doesn't have it that clearly yet.

Kris P There was actually a purpose in playing Peek-A-Boo with Baby - with humans, it's part of how babies learn object permanence, and Baby completely freaks out when I leave the room. I had hoped he would also learn from Peek-A-Boo, but he just learned to say it. He still goes off the rails every time I walk out of the room. Really sweet, but kind of sad, too. His cage has to stay covered all day when I'm at work because if he sees I'm not around, he will get very upset.

Richard Adams wow. that's really interesting. Apollo actually won't play peekaboo anymore with me. Not sure if he's outgrown it or something. He will sometimes randomly say "peekaboo", but when I put my hand in front of him, he acts like he has no idea what to do lol

Kris P He may very well have outgrown it or gotten bored with it. .Parrots are smart enough that anything repeated has a chance of becoming tedious for them. Dr. Irene Pepperberg had challenges around this when she worked with her African Grey, the famous Alex. But you'll always have the video!

Peek-a-boo Peek-a-boo Peek-a-boo *ALLAHU ACKBAR* *BOOM*
