    1. If you don’t speak portuguese, she is saying: Bicudo (bicudo is the name of the bird), were you scaring the chicken? Why are you barking? Are you a dog? You are stubborn.

      This is a free translation, she is saying more, but the gist of the entire thing is this.

    2. Oh! I remember these two from years ago! There’s a video of them on Tumblr where she’s berating Bicudo (sp?) for chewing up her phone charging cable. The bird keeps reiterating “Não foi eu!” (It wasn’t me!)

      Only reason I have trouble understanding them is they’re Brazilian and I grew up with Madeiran dialect.

    3. Wonder if the bird learnt this behavior from humans. I’ve met some people who’d do this in arguments to try to throw the other person off, and it can be annoying af when you’re trying to get a point across!

      Funny when it’s a bird doing it though haha!
