Beyond the ability to learn human words and phrases, parakeets have shown their intelligence in many different ways. Unlike other pet birds, such as canaries and finches, parakeets can learn to come when they’re called, navigate tunnels and mazes, maneuver balls and toys to solve puzzles, and even skateboard! They key to teaching these tricks, however, is to bond with your bird. Parakeets are indeed smart, but they learn much faster when they share a connection of love and trust with their human companions!

Although parakeets only have three basic color combinations— green and yellow, blue and white, or a mixture of these two— the variety of patterns within these combinations are beautiful. Parakeets can be one solid color, or a mixture of them all. White can dominate and make a bird look like fresh snow, or sometimes the colors mix and fade out like tie-dye. A parakeet’s color can even look pastel! Whatever color combination your bird is, though, they’re bound to be beautiful!

Did you know that parakeets can talk? Being a part of the parrot family, parakeets actually have the ability to mimic many different words and phrases. In fact, the parakeet has the largest documented vocabulary of any parrot species! Regardless of if your parakeet actually learns to speak English, however, they can still communicate in many ways. You’ll soon learn that parakeets love to sing, whistle, chirp, squawk and squeak, and can let you know how they’re feeling with ease!

We were very tempted to post all the lyrics to `Keep on Loving You,` but six-month-old Oreo Speedwagon here convinced us that this super cute photo of him is more than enough to convince you to adopt! Plus, it goes without saying that if you take him home, he`s obviously going to keep on loving on you forever!
What`s your favorite Oreo (whoops, we mean REO) Speedwagon song?! Let us know in the comments, or stop by our Adoption Center soon to share and meet Oreo!
Calliope`s on the lookout for her new family! You can meet and adopt her at the @kennebunkfreelibrary during their open hours. Our library friends and the patrons love being greeted by sweet Calliope, spending time with her, and watching her explore the library. We are so grateful for KFL - nearly 30 cats have found their new homes since our partnership began. We love it!
