The cockatoo is the loudest of all the parrots.
Picture From Oakland Zoo
Their
loudness comes from a history of having to communicate long distances
with one another in dark, thick forests. Their vocalizations serve a number of functions, including allowing individuals to
recognize one another, alerting others of predators, indicating
individual moods, maintaining the cohesion of a flock and as warnings
when defending nests
