So a few mornings ago I was packing boxes to be shipped out, and Yoshi started making this ugly screeching sound that I've never heard him make before. I thought something was seriously wrong, so I rush over to his cage. He seemed fine, he was in a really good mood that morning and was talking to me. So I went back to packing boxes, and he started making the sound again. Finally I shrugged it off.

Then yesterday morning I start packing some more boxes, and he starts making this sound again. I finally realized that he's trying to imitate the awful sound of packing tape being unrolled, lol. I'm sure you can imagine my concern when he started making that noise!

He doesn't try to imitate many non voice sounds, which is why it took me a bit to figure out what he was doing.

At least you figured out what was going on before you went insane!

Haha wow, that's hilarious! I'm having a hard time imagining what a bird trying to imitate that sound would sound like, but I feel fairly certain that however it sounded, it would be quite shocking to hear suddenly come out of your bird

When Oscar heard the tape... he let out his danger call... lol. I would have preferred him to try and imitate the noise.

When he gets scared or nervous he stays completely quiet.
