Birds are amazingly intelligent pets, and this cockatiel was ready to take their intelligence to the next level. This bird is actually receiving drum lessons!
This bird could not be cuter or more excited to master an instrument. I’ve never seen a smilier cockatiel in my life!
To kick-off the cockatiel drum lesson, the owner starts by tapping the drums with her finger. At first the bird echoed the sound with their voice, in an exciting display of rhythm skills! But once the owner tapped the drum again, this bird understood the lesson and began tapping the drum with their own beak!
This bird was incredibly proud when their head popped up after their first drum solo. It was seriously adorable.
The owner repeated the gesture and the cockatiel, again, tapped their beak against the drums in a rhythm. This bird is mastering drum lessons pretty quickly!
An astonishing 49 million viewers have watched this video, many taking to the comments to express their delight and amazement.
“Oh my goodness, this precious boy was trying to figure out which way to imitate you!” said one fan of the bird. “It could beep, click, drum, or bop its head, and it was trying to understand which form you wanted! OMG we do not deserve birds.”
Check out this cockatiel drum lesson for yourself! Pretty impressive, huh?
