Rachel Talks! Finally on Camera! (Macaw Talking, Parrot Talking)

Finally caught Rachel talking! She doesn't know the camera is on, which is apparently key to capturing her talking.
Almost complete transcript of her parts:

[@DNAwesome685]

I came here looking for a talking bird, but this guy is so fine.

[@HelloWorld-ws1gl]

Baby

[@aprilhaley5645]

Lol. Same here.

[@bykhunanne6765]

You're both SO ADORABLE!!

[@IthacaJason]

Minie Leyen Thanks, we try! ;-)

[@stafford69]

Yes he is cute, HOT guy !

[@candyman5749]

+stafford69 - His boyfriend is probably holding the camera. Chuckle! ;-)

[@mryogendersinghtanwar9871]

OK

[@mryogendersinghtanwar9871]

OK

[@Muonium1]

I don't know what made me come back to this video today after seeing it a decade ago, perhaps your handsome face, maybe the mesmerizing brilliantly colorful beauty of Rachel, but I definitely did not expect to make the most unwelcome discovery that you are now both gone: Rachel: 2000-2015 Jason J. Seymour: February 15, 1977 - November 3, 2017 Extremely, tragically sad news. If anyone reading this who is a friend or relative knows why Jason took his own life, what was going on at the time for him, how his husband is doing, or really anything about his life, I would love to hear of it. He was a beautiful man who brought a few minutes of joy into now at least 1.5 million of our lives. R.I.P.

[@luigilee583]

I watched the entire video just amazed by this man beauty lol

[@IthacaJason]

Ligia Gomez The man beauty!? Whhaaa? Any producers out there, I want to be on TV.

[@Max-dz2ux]

SAME

[@violinasama]

also men talking to their animal in a cute voice is like one of the #1 amazing things.

[@Rhinogradentian]

I'll take one of each, both are very attractive :)

[@RoCkbunny769]

My grandmother owned a Macaw before he passed away from old age. He only loved her, and would curse and cackle like my grandmother whenever someone else passed him by. Picked up her foul language, and her even fouler attitude. But was a sweet bird at times, and would let me pick him up and ruffle his feathers every once in a while.

[@altair227]

poor bird sad the macaw died they are lovely imo better than cats and dogs!!

[@SKYlightsEBE]

q8altair12 they need a partner so to hold parrots alone is never a very good idea...(even if this couple is very sweet)......... so they fix themself on a human---- the most single birds are lonely.... i dont know why americans asians are deef to this scientifically knowledge. But in other countries its even fixed in the law.

[@miqo6453]

SKYlightsEBE definitely not every country.

[@lovesfreedomtoo]

Rachel is beautiful!

[@Gilligan47]

Hummmm.....Rachel is cute but I want to swap shoulders with her lol....

[@lovesfreedomtoo]

Jillian Wales Yea, those are some good looking shoulders lol

[@brandonwoohoo]

God damn this man is handsome, oh, nice bird too.

[@hadassahimmanuel1727]

Brandon Wu GODs last name not Dam!

[@djefsund]

WOW, the way that parrot gets the bloke to say things is fucken amazing!~

[@yvonneost12]

hahahaha

[@LadyAbyssinian]

Well, It's not everyday you see a stud out shining a talking bird.

[@dizneyprincess6]

I love seeing a man love his animals especially birds and talk to them in cutesy voices. This is exactly how I am with my bird and I thought I was the only one who did this lol

[@anthonymcgeorge2458]

your bird gave you tongue.....

[@themisanthropechannel1449]

It looks like it's been encouraged....

[@heidigraney931]

Forget Rachael bird!! I was too busy enjoying watching her owner!

[@MsTommyknocker]

+Heidi Graney lol

[@klaproosje4813]

i was thinking the same.....

[@prateeksha4040]

me too...

[@ipekatay3042]

This dude is lookin so fiiiiiine why he lookin so damn fiiiiiiine

[@zachkrauss2271]

I love the beak of a parrot. Parrots are so mystical as figures in nature.

[@Bodicea27]

My macaw lex Luther responded to Rachel and watched this video and LOVES it. Very sweet.

[@rainbowloomlover8792]

Bowie and Rachel are very smart!!! I love them!!!😍😀😃

[@Kiinell]

Since seeing this for the first time a few weeks ago everyone in the house goes around saying "Whatcha doin?" in a high pitched voice. Heh.

[@dalsch]

Adorable. Yep I remember with my indian ringnecks, they would talk and talk, but when the camera came out - they would clam out. then one day, they didn't care bout the camera and it was so great when they would just start talking. Makes up 'parrot mommies and daddies' feel proud. thanks for posting.

[@poppykok5]

WOW...Mother Nature never fails to amaze and just AWE me..."Rachel Bird" is simply magnificent with those beautifully colored feathers and sweet happy nature... It cracks me up how these huge and powerful creatures so often go "mute" should they notice the camera nearby...so cute

[@avalonboy]

She is amazing and he is very handsome - ideal couple!!

[@cedude69]

Forget the bird: The dude is a dream!!

[@chertikinamoto]

I love it when parrots talk. Their voices sound so funny.

[@shairich572]

so adorable. Couldn't even pay attention to Rachel though haha. Gosh you're gorgeous (:

[@alkaholic4848]

0:32 "huh huh huh" "huh huh huh" "HA HA!" :-D

[@waycross48]

I'm a 65 yr old grandmother, and I still think this guy is adorable - but in the way a grandson would be!! the bird is so cute and I expect she will learn more words as she gets older. He interacts well with her.

[@mcbgirlbgirlforever6205]

I like that bird Rachel she is so sweet and cute she is a beautiful bird

[@nonalexijomaya6996]

Rachel you soo cute....and so is he!! Goddamn!!!

[@wandabissell]

Best talking macaw I've heard! Good job.

[@josephpolsonetti9640]

Beautiful bird

[@Sabouma28]

pretty bird, very handsome guy ;-)

[@ABhonestopinion12]

The guy's handsome ! Rachel bird is cute :)

[@PrincesaArgentina]

Really cute!! The bird is a little shy. Cute name.

[@kateobrien4103]

Love it when you two go back and forth about 'how are you?' Really funny

[@dejewell60]

I enjoyed watching you talk with Rachel! She is beautiful!

[@vikidobe]

Very nice! You guys have a great relationship!

[@Aniek6]

wat zijn beesjes toch lief ., en zijn ze slim.

[@renee54640]

Adorable. She's so bright and colorful.

[@myladyswardrobe]

Fabulous. Love Rachel Bird - she is adorable. I have a Bilbo Bird - Moluccan Cockatoo. He loves to sit on a window sill in "his" room so he can survey all he "owns" outside - regardless of whether it actually stops at our perimeter fence!

[@pizduke]

OMG! Your smile... I'm in love :)))

[@joeybigfan5997]

what a beautiful bird and very cute owner !!!

[@Kittymewmew1000]

I love when a bird is excited their pupils dialate for a second lol!! She's adorable!!!!!!!!

[@downhomesunset]

Rachel is a beautiful happy bird!

[@djhoffmandj]

so cute!

[@TheTeymur999]

How old is Rachel now? :33 i remember watching this video 3 years ago before I bought my Cockatiel. You were an inspiration for me to buy a parrot and make him talk :3 thank you :*

[@heidigraney931]

She's probaby 36 or 37. However; macaws lifes expectancy is usually around 100-115. So, I'm assuming Jason will be putting Rachel bird in is will lol

[@ChristinaMagma]

Teymur Fatullayev She passed away 😭

[@Terkina__]

I can listen too her for hours. Such a smart and funny bird.

[@2010kgurl]

I have a sun conure and have always wanted a macaw but my space isn't big enough. Rachel seems super happy so thank you for being a good bird owner and having her out as much as possible!

[@chellepoole6050]

Someone on Craigslist was selling two cockatoos and I asked the owner why. He told me his wife passed away and he had to get rid of them because he couldn't take care of them. I asked for pictures and he sent me several along with this video right here. He went on and on in emails about shipping the cockatoo and the carrier fee/ flight fee, which was needed ASAP. Yes I caught on right then and there it was a scam so I asked for a phone number because it's easier to text. I got the number, text several more times and when I tried calling it was a recording that I had to leave a message and the name of the person I was wanting to talk to. Red Alert for sure. I called the police and reported it. And I hope that they catch the bogus seller.

[@nadinecini9927]

LOOOOL

[@MakeUpAndHairWithMe]

Reminds me so much of my nannies bird vegemite! ☺ Miss walking up the drive way and and hearing her say 'hello' 'what cha doing' And singing cocky dance while dancing hahaha 😂

[@sweetsensationuk]

He's so lovely and he talks so clearly bless him very sweet x

[@marledebakkerunicorn]

how is Rachel now?

[@mgtv0310]

youre both cute

[@anj.isthebest6667]

I love parrots they amuse me with the skill of talking.

[@Kimmcmahon]

Only a few of us get to experience the love of a macaw. Rachel is almost as sweet as my blue and gold. Sweets has been in the family for 23 years now. Thanks for the video!

[@adambunner2957]

Cute bird, sexy guy! ;-)

[@desucofk4446]

I'll put Rachael on my right shoulder and him on my left shoulder and get kisses from both sides...

[@CaroleinOr]

to the 69 who didn't like this video, they have never experienced the joys of living with birds. I myself have a CAG and a BFA. They are a great enjoyment. You have a lovely bird. She definitely loves your company. She's lucky! Congrat!

[@KellyCruz]

I cannot stop watching this video! I adore you and Rachel so much! She is so beautiful and so well taken care of!

[@Magdalena-Mabi]

Has she ever bitten you? I have a budgie and I can't trust it 100%. :P

[@pattyinla]

All parrots bite from budgie to macaw. The secret is to learn their body language and learn when you may get bitten then avoid those situations

[@labermichnichtzu8003]

i would expect anyone to lose her or his finger after a macaw bit him/her

[@mpgh]

***** My parakeet can not even get out of his stupid cage...

[@WishingBabyX]

Revontheous Patience, it takes patience to tame a bird.

[@mpgh]

WishingBabyX It has been 5 years...

[@artemmirza1328]

sell methis chiken pls

[@monicasiachi7195]

Consider having one....do research before you say you want to have one

[@rhondas7941]

Thank you for sharing your video, your bird is precious. Always wanted a parrot or a cockatoo but heard they are difficult to handle & expensive to keep...so I will live vicariously through videos. :)

[@lass-inangeles7564]

Awww! Too sweet!! Great relationship there. Birdie loves you. What a magnificent macaw - awesome beauty!

[@samiraarian9304]

I CANT GET OVER HOW ADORABLE THIS IS!!!

[@MainstreamMusicVideo]

WOW, Rachel is Beautiful!!! and she talks very well!! My African Grey Congo Shorty will not talk on camera, so I have to hid it to capture him talking!! good job catching her on camera!!

[@1Liann]

Definitely pleasing to the eyes! I could watch you talk to your bird all day!

[@jrsmith799]

I love how the birds sound like their person.

[@PaebloLeon]

Hahaha I've been watching this video lately. Like, a lot... I always imagine their conversation in a chat window. - What are you doing? - Uhhmm? - Mmmm? Watchudoiiinnn?! - Big Biiiird. - Rachel. :3 - Hahaha - Hahhahhhaha - Hello - Hello - Hi - Hi - How are you? - I'm good! How are you? - Whatchuuudoiing?! :3

[@louiseoneil9429]

I don't know who is more gorgeous.... Him or the Parrot!! :P Very pretty Rachel bird!

[@SaiyanNainoKiBhashaSamjheNa]

Jason & Rachel are SO CUTE! Jason you're very handsome and Rachel, you're too gorgeous! I also have parrots & they too talk like this! :)

[@emilyrosasflores6930]

[@deeluvsluka3262]

[@LilMissSpeeedy]

Don't know who's more cute. You or the bird! Hahah... and omg that bird was so close to poking your eye out with her huge beak!

[@nelamyemail]

Nice conversation.Rachel is wonderfull.Thank you.

[@heidigraney931]

I've always wanted a macaw parrot. And It wouldn't be too shabby to have him too😜

[@captainp.2721]

That *HUH?!* kills me every time lmao 🤣😂😂😂😂

[@FrootbatBat]

Wow. This parrot taught its human to talk so well! ;-)

[@drjules900]

Your Macaw is magnificent! My husband has a 32 year old blue & gold Macaw and she barely speaks at all! She makes noises and cuddles and gets wild, but doesn't talk like your bird. (she also just laid an egg!) You must have spent a LOT of time teaching her to talk.

[@HotPocketMcFarlane]

What a beautiful bird! Nice bright colors, and it seems so sweet, too.

[@Reema770]

Love that Bird.

[@mickwelch514]

Great video mate ... You seem to have a special bond. It's good to see parrots so well cared for.

[@xander7ful]

She's so adorable and sweet.

[@maureendesquitado1292]

Hi Rachel, You are ADORABLE!!!!

[@RiaDae]

What a beautiful blue macaw! Love her!

[@lovelygirl-zg8md]

Wanted to say I hope you're hanging in there after such a huge loss...I think about you and Rachel ....she was amazing....hugs and wishes for your heart to heal...soon....

[@thepyratecove-old]

She doesn't like being called a silly bird lol. this whole thing is cute! both of you and your back and forth!

[@MagnoliasViolet]

So funny when she says "Rachel bird" all quiet! My birdy watched this whole video intently.

[@joanreilly5647]

How precious. We have two "Blue and Gold's. We're definitely inspired. What loving babies they are aren't they? Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@EmdrGreg]

What a great bird. I don't normally think of birds as being particularly interactive, but I guess they can be. Kinda fun.

[@rohanjain1997]

she is such a cute and well trained parrot.

[@gaileenbuchanan6980]

Rachele's beautifull what a georgeous parrot

[@kimberlya.hegarty3073]

I have the same relationship with my parrot! Funny to see! Thanks.

[@Gustavoinsd]

SUPER cute

[@J_loves_lu]

Oh my goodness how cute!! & affectionate !!

[@Sprucedoe]

Bird owners are the best. I love talking to my feathered babies :).

[@Georgie4647]

You have an adorable bird! Love it when she says Rachel lol

[@AmandaMG6]

So funny, this is almost exactly how my conversations with my eclectus go, including the scare of nose nipping and dental work.

[@omegaabnormal]

It's so cute that she's camera shy lol At least you know she doesn't have problems with a big ego hahaha

[@LegendOfMoonDragons]

Oh Rachel is beautiful! She's such a clear speaker too!

[@Schneckenvanatikerin]

That´s the Prettiest man i´ve ever seen ! The Bird can be so lucky ! ^^
