Even Maylor Learned From Victor

About Maylor

These are audio and videos from Maylor the Budgie.  In them he often speaks of many things that have happened in the past,
present and future, confirming much of what Victor was saying. Maylor came to me as a rescued budgie and I made these
recordings from 2009-2011. The next day after I got Maylor he began recording. That day he told me what his name was
and how he wanted to participate in the same way Victor did. In 2011, I retired Maylor from recording.  At that time he
asked me to get him a mate, which I did and he spent the rest of his days happily experiencing the love of another
budgie. I did not know how old he was but he died of old age about 4 years after I got him. I still have some
recordings of him that I have not translated yet.

There is no doubt that these recordings are real!
During the past 15 years it has been difficult to prove that Victor and Maylor were speaking in conversational language because many thought they were only repeating what they were taught or it was somehow faked. This new discovery solidifies the fact that it would be impossible to fake these recordings, especially when the budgies are communicating in reverse as well.

"When a budgie speaks well they will often want to communicate with us. In the beginning some will practice our speech using mimicries. Others from this highly intelligent species, will go one step further and begin to communicate intelligently with us. When they begin to say things they have never said before,  most people can only pick up about 10% of what they are saying in real time. If we have the willingness to record them and study what they are saying, we can begin to understand them."
