Disco is my favourite YT budgie talker to watch. He rocks! He's for real!
http://talkbudgies.com/showthread.php?t=104497 is one of the topics here that I have seen about him.
My opinion is .... SO WHAT if it is edited and condensed. I don't want to watch / listen to quiet "dead air time" when he is not saying something - what he DOES say is very clear and whilst impressive, I think you know my thoughts on budgies, Wendy. We massively UNDER-estimate them. I do not for one moment believe my budgie buddy Mista is an Einstein or any smarter than other budgies - he's just had the opportunity to learn English, since I don't speak budgie AND he is able to relay certain things to me, in English so I understand his wants ( eg. when he tells me NO, or says "Hello" or "what is that" "Get out" etc etc and everything is in context).
I've seen Lyn's budgie, Indi do it on video, and I've seen Wiki do so too. They are just displaying their natural intelligence and are given the opportunity to do so - as is Disco.
I bet your budgies will often surprise you with things they do and you'll think to yourself how clever that was - they are just showing you their natural, innate intelligence!
