I was watching a programme about Longleat Safari Park. The macaws had to stay inside due to bird flu and they were getting bored. They do enjoy music, bobbing their heads up and down excitedly. Two of the keepers decided to have a dance off to decide which of two songs the macaws preferred. One keeper had chosen Picture of You by Boyzone and the other had chosen She's So Lovely by Scouting for Girls. The keepers were quite competitive, each wanting their song to be the one the macaws preferred. The macaws were not impressed with Picture of You but reacted with enthusiasm to She's So Lovely, bobbing up and down and dancing.

Knowing what birds are like I am not surprised they preferred the more upbeat song.

She doesn't often do things on command, and people are like, "yeah, I'm sure she can talk" but they almost always see her dance.
