    Oh my god. He really moves his feet to the music. Hilarious and on beat. WOW!!!

    @bigbadbigfoot Although Snowball enjoys dancing "with a partner (me)", he does his best dancing when there are at least a few people watching him. He will pause once in a while to see who is watching and once he realizes that he still has everyone's attention, he will dance even more enthusiastically. He LOVES being the center of attention as do many cockatoos.

    I cant believe how much rhythm your bird has. He dances different for each song. This bird should be famous!

    It's Edge Of Seventen from her 1981 album Bella Donna album. Ironically she's holding a white cockatoo on the cover. :)

    @BirdLoversOnly  14 лет назад +15

    @Tigerroux That's the one thing that always amazed us about Snowball. We've seen birds dance, but not always dance throughout an entire song. He will not only dance through an entire song, but he wants us to continue putting more tunes on so he can keep going.

  • @CucciCadet
    @CucciCadet 15 лет назад +1

    It is so interesting when he stops and listens for the beat again when he lost it. Then he starts again right on the beat. Amazing

    Music is very therapeutic to Snowball. He is such a different bird when the music is on....he's happy. He truly enjoys and appreciates music. Birds have preferences for musical styles just as humans.

    @BSJ387 13 лет назад +12

    I love his intelligence, his natural gifts and how he just totally immerses himself in the music. A couple of times it seems as if he is also innovative, with the way he holds and moves his head. Mozart would have loved him. Thanl you for taking such good care of him and letting him be himself Barrie

  • @BirdLoversOnly

    Snowball was never abused. His previous owners were very loving and caring.

    I love Snowballs' left foot wave step. That is so cute! He has such a good sense of rhythm too!

  • @BirdLoversOnly
    @BirdLoversOnly  15 лет назад +9

    Many birds spontaneously begin dancing (bobbing their heads, swaying to music, etc). No one taught Snowball how to dance. It would be interesting to see if any wild cockatoos in Australia would spontaneously begin bobbing or dancing if a boom box was continually played outside.

    @Pmagg5 That's a blue and gold macaw in the background. He came to us frightened to death of people (we have no idea what happened to him in the past to make him so frightened of humans). He became used to those of us that he saw on a daily basis, but whenever a new face came in...hysterical screaming all over again. Just a general plea to those watching these videos: PLEASE BE GENTLE AND KIND TO BIRDS (ALL ANIMALS) - please do not frighten or become angry with them.

    The blue and gold in the background is one of the abused macaws. He's coming around so very nicely...really warming up to us!!! I miss Gizmo terribly much...he was just adopted this last weekend.

    We had to throw away the cage that the macaw came with because it was so filthy and corroded. Someone kindly donated the cage he was in as a temporary home until a new one could be purchased for him. A huge thank you to all those who donate to help these birds!

    I'll bet she got a chuckle out of Snowball™.
    It appears as though I left the word "like" out of my question in the first message,lol.
    Thanks for all you do for these guys.More people should adopt instead of buying from breeders.
    Also a big Thank You to youtuber santamara for sharing this with me.

    I love how his legs do not move the same way. One beats once and the other twice to the rhythm. Too cool.

  • @jesskat
    @jesskat 13 лет назад +1

    when he is swaying back and forth its keeping to the beat.. so awesome, when you actually think it about it, they probably get more of a rush from music then we do.. I bet they have heightened senses to the base and vibrations.

    Yes, I was aware that Chris had his bird on the cover of her album. That's what made Snowball's liking of her music even more special! He dances to quite a few of her songs!!!

  • @BirdLoversOnly
    @BirdLoversOnly  13 лет назад +6

    @MultiDantan Having a bird free in your home with supervision can work. However, when you have multiple birds (such as the number that are in our bird sanctuary) this is not possible. All birds do not get along well together. Some of the birds here have physical disabilities and they would be picked on and hurt by the birds without disabilities. They take turns coming out and keen supervision is needed with the disabled birds.

    We used to have a Blue Front Amazon that my father taught to sing as if it were in an opera.
    Prissy always seemed to do that with songs it really liked. For whatever reason, it even did that whenever I'd sing the first verse of "Wooden Ships" by Crosby, Stills and Nash.
