Our ducks make vocalizations when they see their snack - lettuce, tomatoes or baby marshmallows. They even 'spot' this from over one hundred yards away. Perhaps we should think of ducks farther up the scale of intelligence?

The point that I was making before was that many animals will make signs, gestures, or sounds to get the attention of people they think will feed them. Your pet dog goes bonkers if it sees you going for it's favorite treat. I think this is merely evolution and not necessarily intelligence. If we are accommodating the needs/wants of animals; it would only be natural for them to show some signs of wants or approval.
Any vocalizations regarding food are not necessarily a sign of higher intelligence.
