Ludvig is definitely starting to talk. He rather started Roland, by saying ‘hello’ to him and confused Rosie by lunging at her through his cage and then saying ‘hello’. He’s got quite an upperclass accent, so he sounds like a mix between Terry Thomas and Mr Punch.
He also says something that sounds like ‘good boy’ – which is odd, as I don’t think we say that to him very often. I’m surprised it’s not ‘no’ or ‘don’t chew that’.
He ought to be able to learn to use some words in context, but that will be further down the line.
But we have to be careful what we say in front of him as they are mimics, and he may well mimic what we say!
The recent rain has made everything green again. I guess we’re used to it now, but it always seems odd that the color of autumn here is definitely green as the grass comes back – and there aren’t that many deciduous trees.
