I was sitting here watching a hockey game and surfing the board and I kept hearing what sounded like one little Ditto sleepy chirp every so often, only about 3 times louder. Hmmmm.... Then I looked over at him and he seemed surprised when the chirp sounded. The next time it did it, he did it back and I noticed that it wasn't coming from quite the same direction.

Oops. smoke alarm battery died and he was starting to chat it up. :rofl:

Heh. I have had the same thing happen to me, Dave. It takes a while before you realize there's an extra little "chirp" in the house. It's OK though, when it happened here, my birds had a lovely chat with the smoke detector before I figured out what was going on.

Well he's got the smoke alarm dead battery chirp down perfectly. :roll:

Now I've pulled the smok alarm battery an hour ago. Where's his battery? :rofl:

I'd take a lovebird's smoke alarm chirps over car alarm screeching any day of the week!

Fortunately he seems to have forgotten the smoke alarm already! :happy:

It took me a little longer to figure out it wasn't the lovies. Since I have SIX and they are all chatter boxes, I figured it out after they went night-night and everything was suppose to be quiet :rolleyes: Thank goodness I had extra batteries. When one went off the one, the second one went off too. Yep, a lota chirppin' goin' on :lol
