Avidouche is funnier if you ponder about the word for a while until it is ringing in your head with that off-key parrot voice. But maybe hide the parrot is the better expression for two reasons:

1) It is immediately apparent and not only to the more word-savy or those who read your story with increased attention to detail.

2) (And this is appending to what we were just talking about) Would pirates, loud, roudy pirates, use a word like avidouche? Their leader maybe but the others?
