iBon, the Macaw, has a wider vocabulary. She can ask for things she needs, generally, and tends to lean more towards me and calls me, "Bubba", something she must have picked up from her previous owners. We've had her the longest, a rescue from her previous family. She doesn't seem to care for my daughter or wife, but does talk to them. She only likes when they are animated around her, anything where she can join in the fun.
During COVID, my daughter was still doing Karate, but remote - because that was how it was, and set up a laptop on the couch so she could show the Sensei her moves - and iBon saw this happening, waddled over, climbed the couch, and placed herself in front of the laptop and camera - was also very difficult to move from there because she wanted to be the star of the show. Sensei said that apparently my daughter has become a parrot.
Paco, the Umbrella, has a medium vocabulary, knows his name and can use "I'm Paco" or just "Paco". He's a construction worker bird, and get absolutely excited when he sees an Amazon box, because he can carve out windows, doors (that specifically fit him including his tail feather --- and we add "box complexity") this keeps him engaged, less likely to get bored. He prefers my daughter first, me second, does not seem comfortable around my wife. We've had him a year now as of March. He's 30 years old, according to his foot tag.
Then there is Snowy, who is a Goffin's Cockatoo. He's smaller than the other two, but not in personality. He steps up easily, loves "stealing" things, and absolutely loves my wife. My daughter is second, myself last. He talks, says Hello, and can sing.
