Blue
and golds are good-natured birds and can be gifted
talkers. They are also very smart. Our Poncho keeps us in stitches with the things he
says. If he's in a good mood, he'll sing, dance and say his
food is "mmmm, good". On the other hand, if he's in
a bad mood, he will sternly tell the dogs, "go lay
down" and call himself a "bad bird".
