In this video, a parrot meets a talking toy bird. And the interaction that follows is truly hilarious!

There are many unique animals out in the world. And it is not every day that you see a real parrot communicating with a toy bird. 

At the start of this clip, the toy bird makes a battery-generated tweet as the pet parrot walks around and responds. The parrot begins to bite at the toy and speak back to it. 

Suddenly, the toy is silent, and the parrot attempts to restart the conversation. The parrot makes a sound, and the toy mimics the exact tone. The parrot begins to communicate with the toy, which copies everything the parrot says. One time, “I love you” is said, and “I love you” is spoken back in response.

We hear whistling and see the parrot actively engaging the toy. The parrot continues to say, “I love you.” The toy responds, “I love you.” It is hysterical. I have never seen anything quite like this before. A fake parrot and a real parrot are having a playdate in the drawer of a kitchen island. It is comical. It is one long game of copycat. 

Somehow, the toy is programmed to copy whatever is said, and the parrot has an absolute blast with it. The parrot might even believe the toy is a real bird by the end of this interaction.

The game of copycat reminds us that we are called as Christians to emulate the life of Jesus. We are invited to follow Him and be His disciples. As we laugh about the parrot and the toy, may it remind us to seek to live like Jesus today.

“Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.” Ephesians 5:1-2
