Now that’s one Smart Bird!

I loved this story on the BBC today, a stray parrot has talked his way home!

Yosuke, a red-tailed African Grey parrot was captured after sitting on a woman’s backyard fence near Tokyo. Once captured it began singing popular children’s songs before starting to repeat it’s name and address!!

Apparently it’s believed African Grey’s have the cognitive ability of six-year-olds… I’d love to see how he’d get on with a first day at school!!
