Here's a twist. I got tired of listening to the damn thing squak all the time so I made friends with it. Now it seldom chirps, but the down side is I seem to be it's favorite person in the house, now. It won't leave me alone. If it's on one of my kids or my wife when I walk in the room it jumps off them, flutters to the floor and walks over to climb up on me. This thing used to HATE me, now it loves me.

BTW: It's a female. Go figure.
