Twitter slang about talking shit about someone behind their back.
At date, the stats publicly displayed on a Tweet include a counter for Quote Tweets (QTs) — Retweeting the Tweet with an added comment of your own — which displays an accurate total number of QTs.
If you click on the QT counter, Twitter will show you a list of QTs on the Tweet; however, it will only show you the QTs that are publicly visible. Tweets by locked accounts, including QTs, are not publicly visible, so they are registered by the public QT count but do not show up in the QT list.
If a Tweet has 1 or more QTs but they're all private, the QT list will have no entries, just "No Quote Tweets yet," topped by a drawing of a parrot which appears to be narrowing its eyes suspiciously (the titular parrot of shame).
The only easy way to access the QT list is to click on the QT counter, which only shows up if a post has QTs. As a result, if you see the parrot on one of your Tweets, it means someone is discussing your Tweet on a private account, which often means they have an opinion about you or what you said, but don't want you to know what it is.
Therefore, referring to the "parrot" or the "parrot of shame" is a way of saying you know people are talking shit.

Get the Parrotmug. The kind of person that thinks other people will think she is funny or likeable even after having her husband killed (though she didn't have the balls to do it herself) by placing a parrot on her shoulder.
The parrot lady was the worst kind of weak person, the kind that would have somebody killed to prove she wasn't a weak person. That's worse than stabbing somebody numerous times like Ezra McCanless did to prove she wasn't a weak person, though any weak person that would kill to prove that he/she wasn't a weak person is the worst kind of weak person. If only the weak males didn't get most of the spotlight, the rest of us could give credit to all weak people equally instead of just half, once the rest of us no longer feel too intimidated by females to say the bad things about them that they would be quick to say about males to insult or disrespect them.

Get the afghan parrotmug. A derogatory term used by people to insult those with noses that are hooked in a way that make those people appear to have a parrot's beak.
Look at that parrot Rubber Andy over there, his nose is sticking out of his helmet!
As you can see in that prehistoric codger's photograph, he was a parrot. That's why he didn't get girls.

Get the Parrotmug. Sydney’s top destination for acai, known as Purple Parrot, where the colour purple is rediscovered, elevated and tasted. This isn’t just any acai spot; it’s where purple regains its traditional connotations of luxury, nobility, ambition and power, reclaimed from a various groups who have tried to hijack it. Every spoonful at Purple Parrot offers a taste of this new luxury, transforming a simple meal into an extraordinary experience.
