Its perfectly normal to talk to a pet, in fact it is extremely therapeutic to speak to an animal, the whole range from telling a pet you love them all the way down to telling them your secrets and problems.
It is also ideal to speak to a parrot. Parrots are animals that communicate vocally, through songs and calls - that is why they can learn to pick up the sounds we make. They are very focused on sounds, and that is the basis of their relationships. The more you talk to your bird, the more a part of your family it will feel.

Perfectly normal as Sarah said! I always talk to my birds in a baby voice or like I'm talking to a human. My birds make me feel like I have three other children which I love.

its perfectly normal its even fun along with therapeutic for you it can be very fun, especially when they answer you and or look at you come running to you hope on your hand shoulder and start talking your ear off. its a great feeling. enjoy my lil buddy Kyba. I love it when he starts repeating his name or saying "Hey buddy hey buddy buddy, or whats up buddy" to get my attention.

ive been saying "I love you guys" he's saying "I'll be back later buddy, see you later buddy. he's saying much now that he learns from watching tv when I'm at work its crazy. I'll try and get him on camera when he is just rambling and excited. I just watched and edited a video of him talking and he actually saying A LOT of new words phrases he's learned from watching all that tv, one phrase from my nephew and one new one from me he was NOT supposed to lol. I've added speech bubbles to point out the new words/phrases. I didn't annotate his usual words he says every day though hope you enjoy it just as much as I did when I learned just how much more he is saying now.
