Hi!

Our neighbor was outside talking to his parrot who was also talking. I tried to tell the kids not to be peering on their side of the fence, but they were very interested in what was going on over there. We heard things like, "Hello," "I love you," "Hi." The man would say it and then tell his bird to say it. At one point, this happened:

neighbor to his bird: "Hello?"
silence
neighbor to his bird: "Say hi."
Annika peering through the fence says, "Hiiii!!"
laughter coming through the other side of the fence. :)
