Humaning Something

I tried to teach a parrot to sing Happy Birthday To You a few days ago. It was on a trip to an animal park with my Grandchildren.

The parrot was definitely trying. I could recognise 3 or for notes before I left him or her to practise alone.

Later on i was trying to teach a brand new song to family members for a singalong. Turns out that humans aren’t bad parrots either. The family picked things up quicker than the actual parrot.

Perhaps Parrots call the ability to copy sounds Humaning Something.

You just never know, do you?
