He won't ever learn to talk and he doesn't have a song but he likes to squawk. He will call loudly to you if he hears you come into the house... sort of saying "Here I am! Come here! Come on, hurry UP!" When he wants something or someone, he bobs his body up and down in that direction as if trying to hurry you over to it. You have to watch him, though, he is very curious and has fallen into my sister's hot tea once and fallen into the greasy dishwater while my sister was doing the dishes.
I love the name. After Elvis the singer OR our Canadian skater, Elvis?? I love them both.

After the singer. He doesn't sing, though. He screeches very loudly, especially when he is being ignored. THAT he often does right into your ear (just before he hauls off and bites it)!
