Depending on the species, parrots are capable of producing a wide range of sounds, including screams, chirps, human words, kissing noises, and practically any other sound the master mimic hears. Parrots are gregarious creatures who yell, whistle, and make other noises to attract their owner’s attention.
The countless species of parrots each have a unique natural call, with the majority sounding like conventional bird chirps. Youth-led instruction enables captive parrots to begin speaking. A strong rapport, patience, and repetition increase the likelihood of communication. The frequent exposure of a parrot to a sound results in the development of non-avian noises.
