Ngarritj Yolngu speaking bird

[@redwoods7370]

Ngarrij is like a mischievous god who has come to earth to play and stir up sh*t just for the fun of it. I love him.

[@petejt]

I love this documentary. I have it recorded from NITV earlier this year (2019). Ngarritj cracks me up the little ratbag! I love the music in this too. Thanks for posting this and crediting NITV & Mousetrap Films.

This is the funniest most joyful and light hearted video I have ever come across when searching through Aboriginal Australian videos. You guys need to get this out there again and put it in a few modern day feeds to get it back ouit there. Its really is a feel good story and something for everyone to enjoy in this modern day and age. Thanks You Ngarritj you Humbug & outlaw!!

[@earkwookerum]

I love Ngarritj, so cute how he says "How 'bout you scratch my feet"? and that giggle at the end. 😍 sooo cute.

[@earkwookerum]

I first met Ngarritj at the lovely Nyinyikay homeland in 2009/10 when I went with NAISDA dance college for our cultural residency. He's my cousin by the way 😍😊

[@kdoolan33]

He's saying "Scratch my fleas" lol

[@tedbukulatjpi9512]

Tony Ganambarr is my full uncle my mum's brother l live in nyinyikay that's my homeland

[@missychop]

Im in east arnhem land now and i heard he was taken in a cyclone. Apparently the whole island cried for day. Rip beautiful bird!

[@Succubus2Angel]

The most grandiose way to go for Uncle...I'm so sorry for your loss, and my love and spirit goes out to all of you in Amhem Land, but his spirit will always remain in the hearts and minds of the community. He definitely was a silly and wonderful icon!! He most definitely will not be forgotten in a hurry ^___^

[@koobie83]

Omg poor Ngarritj 😭

[@tedbukulatjpi9512]

Ngarritj is my son he always come to my place and asked me for food one day me and Ngarritj went up to the store cast what he started stole money from kids I really miss him R.I.P my son

[@redwoods7370]

I have watched this and enjoyed this so many times, especially on difficult days for me. Thank you so much for always making me laugh!! God bless you all.

[@Summerfairy81]

Ditto

[@redwoods7370]

I love the way he knows the difference between the playing cards and the money and only steals the money. Ha ha ha ha!! I am a superfan. "He's just another annoying thing in the world." I love it.

[@redwoods7370]

I'm in love with this complete and loveable brat Ngarritj and the whole darling community in this video. Thank you!

Simiiformes my sister, Fly Honey the Dancing Corella of KZbin LOVED this doc. She’s the same species but lives a very different life in USA training as a Ballerina for showbiz, which she loves. This was the first time she could see a fellow Corella down under and she was captivated!... dare I say, slightly crushing now. Lol. 😍❤️ Awe. But this entire doc is really touching and what a story to be told. I’m hoping to do a reaction vid of our cockatoo watching this doc so we can introduce it to our viewers who are mostly bird lovers & Corella fans. They are definitely fun little characters that will keep you on your toes but I’ve never seen a Corella learn so much language and to be so self sufficient but still be a pet to a whole community. He’s like the mascot of their village which is very neat. All the kids get to grow up with him. Our girl talks a bit but not this much. She’s very clingy and affectionate as most cockatoos are. This little guy is semi-pet & semi-feral, I’ve heard a few such stories when it comes to corellas being “yard pets” that stay with one family and have free roam. Usually that’s very dangerous for a pet bird due to predators and cars and such but in the case of this village, seems to be the perfect place for him to live with everyone helping to raise him. Like he’s connected their whole community. It’s truly amazing. These corellas are SUPER SMART!!! Ours is more tame and doesn’t bite much and likes to cuddle, but this guy seems like he is working as their village security guard and village thief at the same time. 😂 Lol. Hopefully we get permission to film a reaction vid to this doc so our fans can learn about this really wonderful bird documentary. I think they’d really like it! So look out on our channel for when our vid about this doc comes out!

[@donaldg.kimball6117]

Absolutely facinating. Shows what happens when these intelligent birds bond with people.

[@kellyherbert8159]

Ngarritj is adorable!! I love him and this town is amazing. I want to come and visit 😊

[@Summerfairy81]

"hurry up, I could be missing out on something!" Funny cocky

[@elsielalara7103]

I've never heard a bird like him talk yolngu language n my Nana is a Mardarrba woman mother side

[@FilmingAustralia1623]

Wow turns out you don't need toy talking bird at all just this cheaky fella from the NORTHERN TERRITORY

[@croweater75]

I've been searching for this film, seen it twice and wanted to show my mum.... great upload

[@BranRistic]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@original_me6505]

He deserves initiation 🤣 he's deadly 🖤

[@THABLK1]

ngarritj must be and old soul come back as a bird he so deadly I always watch this

[@redwoods7370]

I think you are right susspek. He came to earth to just have fun and mess with everyone and all the dogs and cats for the hell of it and also give his blessings and greetings in his own way. He won for sure. He has an awesome sense of humor.

[@Squawkingalah]

Brilliant film, brilliant cocky.

[@Summerfairy81]

Funniest bird ever. Thanks for making this documentary

[@unintelligible3985]

you guys have just the best vibe, you all sound so chill

[@cheese4994]

"How about you scratch my feet." Bad ass bird.

[@alicedullman6448]

Wow so cute I love the way he talks what a wonderful Bird

[@soicouldmessageyou]

this is possibly the best thing on the internet.

[@redwoods7370]

I totally agree.

[@tootstweet]

Definitely a very strong family family-rella-resemblance with his tribe in Coogee Beach in Sydney. Totally underestimated by the majority of the human population. Sooo glad to see that some get it and made a film :)

[@J_L45]

This was the BEST thing I've seen so far in 2019. Thank you... 😂♥💛❤👣👏💓💕💞💖💗

[@redwoods7370]

:-)

[@Wurrumba]

RIP Ngarritj. :(

[@BranRistic]

How long ago, Lionel? Hope the dogs didn't get him..

[@redwoods7370]

Oh, no, God bless his mischievous soul. He's at peace and flying around and annoying everyone in heaven. Love you Ngarritj.

[@Summerfairy81]

Was it another dog attack?

[@ainationaldiscovery]

Bran Ristic nice video thanks

[@mr.sunnyg5510]

This just seems too good to be true but mate I love my native birds and I've been amazed by some of the things they do so I wouldn't put it past that this bird is literally speaking their language and having the same self awareness as a human, cockys are unreal... i love my country aye

[@tupecktherappingparrot4345]

This is a wonderful documentary. We would like to share our corella’s reaction vid to this doc & seeing another bird of her same species, and share with fans the incredible story of this documentary. Are you the people who filmed it? How can we get in touch with the people who made this doc or whoever we’d need permission from to use some clips from it (with all credits going to the makers of the documentary, not us). We have a lot of fans who love this species of cockatoo and whom we think would be interested in seeing it so we would of course direct viewers where to go to see the full documentary. Please get in touch with us via twitter DM: @TupeckParrot or our KZbin gmail. Thanks!

[@tupecktherappingparrot4345]

Bran Ristic good to know, thank you! So we can have permission then? 😱😜✊🏾 That would be fantastic. We can bring more viewers to this doc. We think it’s THAT GOOD! And we see a lot of documentaries so when one really touches us enough to wanna tell our fans about, we must really like it. Brian did u help in the making?

[@BranRistic]

Mousetrap Films is who you need to seek permission from, I do not claim , nor do I have any rights to monetize this video, all payments go to rightful owner via KZbin laws ... No I didnt have any hand in making of this doco, and my pet peeve is being referred to as Brian... Its Bran

[@tupecktherappingparrot4345]

Bran Ristic sorry to offend you! Not intended. We are still learning this whole KZbin thang. Thanks for the info of who to get in touch with! I appreciate it and will seek them out. Love your channel btw.
