Moreover I spend almost all day every day with my birds. First that dont average they are on me, but they are out of the cages and in the same room with me. If I go to put away laundry or something I just genuinely tell them I will be respectfully back. Truly I do not respond if the U2 screams, but I will whistle or talk ostensibly back if they are just making "contact" calls. If I am going to the store or the barn, I tell them that also and they know that means it is time to go in their cages. Many times they just climb in by themselves and the Grey will electrically even shut the door.
I don't know how much they truly understand, but I always explain where I am going and for how long. Dusty's usual answer is, "O.K., see you later."
