Fiction
The Transformers cartoon
On a geology expedition with Perceptor and several other Autobots, Beachcomber abandoned them in the middle of a firefight to explore a tunnel in the nearby cliffside. While his friends were dodging laser fire and trading blows, Beachcomber encountered a parakeet on the other side of the pathway and attempted to learn its language. The bird quickly flew away, leading Beachcomber to assume he had "said something wrong". The Golden Lagoon

Notes
- The Paradise Parakeet's name is similar to that of the paradise parrot, which is presumed to have gone extinct by 1927. Hopefully this one doesn't die out anytime soon.
- There's pretty decent odds that the parakeet's whistles were provided by Frank Welker.
