Shiloh got on the counter Sunday when I was on the phone with my ex, looking in corners and doing that opening and closing of the beak that they do. Acting nesty. Then she was perching on top of the folding screen in front of the sliding glass door trying to out-yell all of the different birds outside. I had the door open for fresh air (the screen was closed).
I can picture all of the yelling going on at your place.
