Parrot Sounds On-Click

So, it all started while I was Archying in Un-goro. There was a parrot critter around me, and when the fragment appeared I accidentally clicked on the parrot, and it wolf-whistled me! I thought I was going nuts, and clicked on it again, this time it did a parroty sound. I got the fragment and started to click on the bird repeatedly, amused by the sounds. He makes several (at least 3) parroty sounds and then a wolf whistle.

I then brought out my pet Senegal and it made the same sounds :) I was so happy, and decided to have Hyacinth Macaw as my Archaeology partner today, and Hyacinth made different sounds! Hers are somehow much more jungle-ish and high pitched bird sounds, no wolf whistle. Such nice sounds! I was very happy with both Hyacinth having such a pretty voice and the other parrots being cute and funny too.

Have you noticed? Was this old news? Which sound you like more?

I knew that they have been adding more on-click sounds to both mini-pets and hunter pets, but I was unaware they were added to critters in the wild! I'll have to summon my parrots and listen to all of the calls.

*Every* critter in the wild, bar a couple, have on-clicks. And a lot (most?) of neutral beasts as well, actually. There's a *lot* more on-clicking going on out there. The parrots have had the different sounds since... 4.2? Maybe before? Pretty much every minipet has had sound-on-click since Cataclysm, and now even more do. :)

I think I've found only one or two critters that *don't*. And several that look the same even have different ones. The 'new' scorpids in Blasted Lands, for instance, have a distinct sound from any other scorpid I've heard. :D

But the fact that Hyacints Macaw and some other parrot, maybe Green Wing (gosh I checked just yesterday) have really cool unique sounds, and moreover the other parrots' cute wolf whistle. I knew more pets have on-clicks now :) You guys totally have to listen all your parrots through, it has made it so much more enjoyable to have a parrot out.

EDIT: it was the Cockatiel. it has different sounds from Hyacinth too!
