Does anyone have any idea of what the different noises mean? I'm trying to figure out if Yogie is stressed by the wild lorikeets, or whether he just enjoys chatting to them. He makes this loud screech (so loud that it literally hurts my ears) when he hears them and they take turns talking. Is there some resource that explains in what situation they make particular noises?
Also, he lets out a massive exhale right before he violently attacks his rope toy; almost sounds like a snort. I don't know whether it's a playful noise, or whether he hates the toy and is trying to kill it.

yogie is talking to other lorikeets as they fly by. Harriette loves whistling and screeching with them. When I sometimes have her on my shoulder she lets out loud playful screeches in my ear. And my ear is ringing for the next five minutes. Its what they do and they are good at it lol.

Once he made his body go flat and he was quivering.

he was probably over excited with the other birds. I wouldnt worry about it too much.

I agree also. Lorikeets are VERY vocal birds and love the sound of their own voices as well as chatting and screeching to any other lorikeet.
