Morning Talk with my Mynah "Kaleo"

[@fearanger1]

I still can't believe the Mynahs are capable of mimicing speech. The same thing that's constantly screeching outside my window!

[@Netsaver]

I quite like how his body puff's up when he laughs and does certain lines.

[@newecreator]

"I'm a little duck. Quack quack quack."

[@SpoonGoonKay]

Poor bird is going through an identity crisis.

[@jewgirl952]

We had a myna bird once. They are excellent talkers. Ours would ring just like the phone and then answer like my mother.

[@xXkakuayaXx]

The owner and the bird are both so cute, the bird talks all innocently and the owner has such one of the kindest, loving voices i have ever heard ^__^

[@UrsaMaul]

He's gunna grow up with identity issues...

[@SquashedBananaPie]

I had no idea those cheeky buggers in my back yard can talk.

[@tf2whackyengineer]

Your bird knows more about Chickens than the Bluth family.

[@nlo114]

Wonderful birds. When I was a kid, I was an errand-boy for a vegetable truck. I had free entry to every house on my round, one of them had a mynah. It startled me at first when I went into one house and heard: "Andrew, Andrew! Breakfast, come on you'll be late for school!" I am now 60, but the bird's voice was a spit-copy of the kid's mother. I'll never forget those days.

[@PillDex]

Definitely not a fake. We have exactly the same type of bird known as an Indian Minah here in South Africa. I hand reared one that had fallen out of a nest and he lived for 15 years. Was an incredible talker. Very intelligent birds!

[@javinbond8714]

LMAO! I love it when he emulates the laugh.

[@1hellocat]

i can't stop watching these videos! SOOOO adorable! I want one so bad!! lol

[@stevenwickes7156]

Eventually would drive you crazy lol

[@nessar5104]

I haven't seen a mynah bird in a long time, but I knew they were great talkers. This one is adorable. :)

[@t1joel]

What a beautiful bird! He speaks very well, too! Such an awesome relationship between this woman and her bird friend.

[@littlebluedaewoo]

Goodness, what a talented bird and what a great job you have done in teaching it. Adorable :)

[@OK2BCK]

I have pigeons they won't say shit

[@CeeBee781]

This is incredible. I've never, ever seen anything like this in my life.

[@ptl44]

I always thought that only birds in the parrot family could talk.

[@wasabiperson2616]

Oh my gosh, he is just the cutest little baby, aaaw. I love birds so much, I can't get over this little sweetheart.

[@CJCroen1393]

Mynahs are such brainy birds!

[@13ishmaverick]

This bird is so cute and lovely :)

[@meloearth]

I'm impressed at how smart he is.

[@VentricDual]

I love watching parrot talking videos but half the time I can't understand them. This is the clearest speech I have ever heard from a bird! Amazing!

[@BrotherTree1]

Wow, he can quack better than an actual duck :O

[@ceilao1]

what can I say, but that I'm soo in love with you, Little Kaleo! Your Mum just brings out all your talents and the love you have for her is enviable-keep it up, sweet little Kaleo XXXOOO

[@83kellylove]

My girls and I are reading and learning about different kinds of birds, this was our favorite video Kaleo is soooo cute we just love this little bird! Thanks for sharing;)

[@queenkoi]

Wow what a beautiful creature. I had never heard of them, thanks for sharing =). I am happy for the little bird that it got to be with such a great human.

[@annecollier2455]

what a dear little bird, he is so clever, and you sound a nice caring lady.

[@MegaVijayaraghavan]

nice bird

[@al01100]

great bird! love him the best way you can...you`ll feel an emptiness that can`t be filled when he`s gone.

[@jenna.s1256]

Beautiful amazing bird. Love Love Love :)

[@A.L.Davis4]

I love this bird's voice, and the way it moves, everything about it is so intriguing to me.

[@ryancooper42lp]

My son and I watch these videos staring Kaleo over and over. We are obsessed!

[@Lauriabrisson]

OMG This is amazing! Kaleo talks so clearly. It is like another person is with you.

[@anuhmazing]

I love this! You two are great! thank you for the smiles!

[@robinminkler]

Awesome!!! I couldn't tell where her speech ended and Kaleo's started!

[@kshitisharma5686]

Little bird. Massive personality. 🐤🐥🐦💕

[@marcevania100]

oh my God... what a little beautiful... wonderful!!!

[@gabby20]

I totally agree with you. Thank you for loving myner birds and I hope you have lots of fun with your 2 new mynerbirds

[@blitz-o-byte]

0:52 Im a little duck quackquackquackquack

[@MsPreciousParrot]

He is just so darn CUTE! I love how much you love him.. makes me happy! :)

[@shilohhuntsberry6778]

That bird is so smart and adorablee. I love that bird so much he always makes me laugh where I can barely breath.

[@13utoober]

Wow. So cute. So adorable. So handsome. And, his pronunciation is so clear. I love your special little guy. :-)

[@tiffanynicole8615]

I can't get over how smart he is. So cute :)

[@ShyClementine]

He is so cute and expressive! What a smart little bird.

[@jinxmas]

A Congo African grey was my buddy for 8 years and we had conversations as you do. My situations unfortunately made it difficult to keep him and he has a Wonderful home with a good friend. I miss him but he's so happy and lives like a king. Enjoy your baby!!! So precious!

[@lisashadows7681]

they classify this bird as a pest in Australia. so sad.

[@pmorgaine20]

You have no idea how much joy your videos with Kaleo bring me! I used to work with Wild Bird Rehab Haven and specialised in raising mynahs. I live in Texas now and sorely miss my "unreleasable" mynahs Hades and Jewel with their sweet little mynah accents. Doh, doh, doh, doh. Mahalo Nui Loa for sharing.

[@loverofmusic109]

It sounds as though Kaleo is thinking as he is talking! He can choose what he wants to say and change his mind in the middle of the sentence. How cool is that! I bet he makes a great companion! Loved this video!

[@MishelleyLane]

I would love to see more of these, I never get tired of watching this precious bird with his wonderful owner! Please give us more :)

[@DunateoRom8v37]

Thats amazing. But these birds are displacing our native birds in South Africa. They are considered as pests and dealt with. At least this little fella will be safe.

[@cmhhawaii]

They are a big commitment as they chose a mate for life... you will be it.. They need lots of love, patience and attention to be happy

[@SilverWingFenrirWolf]

What an adrable little fluffy faced cutie! He's precious♥

[@Cali4nialette17]

This was the best video I've seen! I needed something to make me smile today!! Ahh he is so cute!!

[@justme-yu2pz]

how adorable. so funny when he says 'you're so funny' and laughs! awesome!

[@ozzcarandme]

This is amazing , its taking a lot of time afford and love on your part,so if people want one please think about it,that's not a toy that you trow away when your sick of it.

[@mukeshpandya4171]

I laughed my ass off.. frankly here in melb so many have complained them to be a pest from India but we know they are smartest bird than Crows but i havent seen anyone ever training him, you trained him so well... proves every animals/ bird have brain emotion and feelings just like us.

[@LaughingFortune]

I want one so bad. They are so amazing. I have a cockatiel and will wait till I grow up a little (just out of high school.) and have a more stable life. But wow, I can barley wait. They are just so...wow.

[@hailfairgoddess]

He is super cute! Thanks so sharing these videos 😀

[@rockybudgeboa]

What a great little bundle of energy. I LOVE KALEO

[@cmhhawaii]

You are right..he has been able to associate words with action and actually seems to enjoy mixing up words he knows..He surprises me sometimes with what he comes up with

[@JamieBarrington]

So adorable! My favorite is when Kaleo says "you're so cute!" Love it!

[@octabat]

this is theeeee cutest birdie video i've ever seen! hahaha i show people often...please oh please make more videos! Too cute!!!!

[@trickycrayon]

Oh, she's so beautiful. And smart, too! And very clearly loved.

[@ferrethome]

Sweet little mynah bird. Talks so well!

[@lovemybirds]

"Whatcha Tink?" I think he's so cute... and so bright!!! He makes my African Grey look simple...lol Well done, he's obviously well loved and well cared for to have learned as much as he has. Bravo!!!

[@green2850]

I was having a terrible day until I saw this : 0 I smiled and laughed soo hard!! Thanks!

[@Luigithehomie91]

thats amazing, thank you for saving this beautiful little bird. so silly

[@jonathanpagancruz9217]

id hear a very long story and fall asleep with this ladys voice

[@squishypumpkincat]

He's amazing! Better than any parrot I've ever heard. He seems to really like being with you, too!

[@patriciacallahan8327]

I thought this was adorable! It made me smile.

[@MissBophaLokei]

woman, you're a great owner. i love how kind and patient you talk to the mynah!

[@DuneDemon8]

He looks like a healthy happy bird, and its obvious he gets lot of attention. Good work!

[@richardquinones2959]

OMG this is so hilarious but it goes to show how smart birds are😄👍👍

[@Hornadayfan]

Thanks for the reply. I used to live in Waianae on Oahu and never saw a Mynah on that side of the island.

[@jodyjenkins638]

I love Kaleo, I think he's fantastic and you're so kind to him.. Some of my favourite videos I've ever watched. :) x

[@1viva]

You guys are so cute together! :-) Thanks for sharing. Please, let's see more videos of you two together! :-)

[@gottlicherhammer]

Smart bird. Teach it to remind you to hold the camera in landscape orientation.

[@cmhhawaii]

@Aerostryker2 They do mimic but there is no doubt he communicates. He associates action and phrases. When I walk out he says "Be right Back" When the dogs run outside barking at something he calls them with "come here" .When he is hungry he asks for Papaya etc...

[@nerdomaniac]

"I'm a little duck" - evil talking bird.

[@MariselaFrancoo]

"I'm a turkey talker"

[@jamesdeal8884]

I'm a Turkey Talker ! Just love this !

[@domingosmundo4138]

most people are to young to remember these amazing little birds' i remember back in the 1970's there was one in the bait shop in clarksville tenn and it was very vocal ' it was amazing how much its vocabulary was, alot of people went in there and so it learned alot'

[@DegixHorse]

This video just made me smile all the time, I feel so happy! :D

[@TCPUDPATM]

I grew up around these birds - never knew they could talk!

[@SilverWingFenrirWolf]

SO CUTE!! He's such a cute little duck and chicken!!

[@Brennna]

Thank you for not teaching your bird to swear. It's a nice change to listen to this beautiful bird.

[@coronasdetexas]

Super fluffy! Your bird is so cute. My cockatiel acts the same way.

[@indisag]

Once a Mynah was badly enjurd, I took him to the Zoological Hospital. But there a mad doctor told me that why have you brought it? This is a very ordinary bird. But today I came to realize that no living being is ordinary.

[@britzik]

Oh dear god, this is magnificent!!!!

[@minhal_lhr]

awww ... he is so precious ... i love him ... hugs and kisses little birdie.

[@JackAStibium]

What an incredible being! So graceful and intelligent.

[@barbarastepien-foad4519]

wow he's just such a star! I love this bird.

[@TravelDude]

At 1:25 he shows off his plume. So cute.

[@baskerzeke]

I like how it has to puff itself out before it talks.

[@MockingbirdGirl13]

What a sweetheart.

[@Ahmadany]

best Mynah ever... i love it

[@spider9037]

Amazing he sounds just like u soooo adorable!

[@mirandakaiten2295]

I love it when your mynah bird makes animal sounds!
