How about a pet chicken? They come in a variety of different colors and if you hatch them out and hand raise them they WANT to be with you (especially when you have food) but they will come see what you are doing anyway. They make all sorts of interesting noises, although they don't make human speech noises unless you count the "old lady mutter" that hens sometimes make. They also lay eggs which is a real plus! One of our hens is about seven years old and still healthy so they last quite a long time.
Another nice bird pet is a turkey - one of the domestic breeds. They aren't really the brightest of birds but they are really sweet.
Otherwise how about making your yard nice for birds to visit? Then you can "have" birds without having to worry about cleaning out their cage.
