Love Your Bird: Joy Sings Joyous Songs

Joy (Congo African Grey) is my Joy. I am a music teacher and singer. I have taught her many songs like "Happy Birthday" and "Don't Worry, Be Happy!" She can whistle the Andy Griffith tune and Jeopardy. She can add, telling you that "2+2 is 4!" and "4 + 1 is 5." She has a varied vocabulary, but the thing I like most to hear her say is "Momma's home!" She says this whenever I come home from work or shopping. Joy is seven years old now and has brought me seven years of happiness. I love her dearly.
