Probably your post pompous and irrelevant reply ever!

Good night!

If you say so, then I will say...Good Night to you, as well.

But, last time you said Good Night, you popped up several times, thereafter.

So, ....

Is it a YES or a NO....?

    It is beyond help apart from being institutionalised!

If you say so.

But, do you have any evidence you might share in order to support your statement?

Would you like me to PM copies of my Passport and Driving Licence to show that my name is William?

I can only assume that you are a newbie....

Why assume when you can hover over his profile and see that he has only been a member for 11 years, since 2015

While GG posts some offbeat stuff whose purpose often eludes me, he occasionally posts something that turns out kind of fun.

I happen to be a fan of Mynas, so this post drew me in. Smart birds, sleek and fast like a small sports car, and friendly.

I spent a few years living in India,. Mynas were abundant, as were ring-neck parakeets. For some reason, a few of the latter took a liking to me, and when I went out into my yard, two different ones used to come land on my shoulder. They would stay there as I walked the grounds tending to my garden or picking bananas or mangoes. My household staff thought I was some sort of wizard or guru, as they never had seen wild birds land on anyone else. I told them I'm as flawed as anyone, but for reasons unknown, I am lucky to attract "birds", the ones with feathers and the ones without.

IMHO, being a Myna might be better.

Even more so if you are a Greater Indian Hill Myna, the most superb copycat of them all. Better than the African Grey parrot. I believe your video depicts a Common Mynah, which is a step above the European Starling.

This would not be helpful, and neither would it be advisable.

How can I get the mynas in my yard to land on my shoulder, preferably my left should, if possible.

i've always admired myna birds but these take mimicking to a different level

a. Myna birds are extremely intelligent and have a high degree of social interaction. Which bird is smarter?

b. I prefer birds who can accurately mimic Samsung Phone Ringtones
