Penny's Tricks: Spin, Fetch, High Five, and Put Away Toys

Penny, a 14 month old cockatiel, practices her tricks: spin, fetch, high five, and putting toys away. The tricks were first clicker trained and then put on cue. Music: 9 to 5 by Dolly Parton

@chiahuei Thanks! I'm sure your birds will come along! I have another cockatiel that was very shy and clicker training has really helped her gain confidence. :)

Simply amazing! I think that many dog owners need to see that it is possible to shape a retrieve and other things, no matter how non-breed/species specific the behavior is! LOL!
