Beep Boop Zippity Blurp: Parakeet Emulating R2-D2

November 12, 2014

parakeet-r2d2.jpg

Hot on the little birdy heels of yesterday's laser blaster lyrebird comes this parakeet emulating the sounds of everyone's favorite astromech droid, R2-D2. "I prefer the R5 series." Okay you are way too into astromech droids. Still, I think we can all agree this is -- wait for it -- wait for it -- the boid we're looking for. "Wow." Right? Now if you'll excuse me, my neck has a very important date with a ninja sword.

Keep going for the video.

Thanks to Stephanie A, who told me she has a pair of lovebirds. How about that?!

    Somewhere George Lucas is editing a directors cut of this clip for a special edition Blu Ray, where the girl holding the bird is digitally enhanced with a new jacket and a greater sense of bewilderment at the end, there are some extra droids and Tusken Raiders on banthas added into the background of the scene, and the parakeet shoots first.
