We are talking about their intelligence in another thread, but I came here to post this one about Fergie. It is one of my favorites.

33. “Wanna go night night. Think about it.” While I was at computer; preceded by “light” and ”night night” (She had said "light" and I told her I couldn't go to bed now that I was working on the computer. She said "light" a few more times then said "night night."
"Think about it." is what I say to her in certain situations when she has misbehaved. "Am I going to let you bite me? Think about it." "Am I going to let you eat the refrigerator? Think about it."

The next night she said “Light” three times and each time I told her I was busy and couldn’t turn off the light. Then she said “Night night” three times and each time I told her I was busy. She then flew off my shoulder and stayed somewhere behind me. She kept saying “Light.” I knew she could not get in any trouble back there, so I ignored her until the lights went out. She had flown to the top of the piano and had reached up and grabbed the light switch, saying “Light” until she finally got it to turn off. As soon as the light went off, she let go of the switch and it popped back up and the lights came back on. She had not pulled it completely down, but she knew exactly what she was doing.

Fergie tried to get the stupid human to behave-time out for you Dot- Fergie just had to do it herself! Smart bird ! (not saying you are stupid, far from it) Fergie had to learn it from some one.

That is just mind boggling. If mom won't do it, I'll have to do it myself.

Dot,

If you click the drop down option at the bottom right of your screen where it says "Forum Jump" there is the option to see "who's on line".... That lists the members and non members and what they are viewing at that point in time

Sometimes lurkers that are not members show up as a "google spider' ..... basically they have some sort of firewall or security that keeps them from having to show thier identity.... (best explination I have, not 100% technically correct I'm sure)

That story is incrediblle! It'a amazing how smart these little creatures are. Cody understands more than we know, and we have to spell out the words a lot of times so that he can't understand us. lol
