Can anyone give me a list of the top ten best talking birds?
This is personal opinion. Even at that, it’s just a rough guide, since no two birds are alike – even if they’re the same species (e.g., some African Greys don’t talk). 1) African Grey. see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKeY9j5P6… 2) Yellow-headed amazons (yellow-nape, double yellow head, blue front, maybe orange wing). see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVBILtDrg… 3) Eclectus. see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMx10BUgz… 4) Indian ringneck parakeets 5) Mynah birds 6-7) Macaws and cockatoos. Seldom have large vocabularies, but some speak clearly. 8+) Quaker, Senegal (or any poicephalus), Budgie (male), and some cockatiels (male) – many have large vocabularies, but they seldom speak as clearly as the larger birds Some people would add lories, but I don’t rea
