Really cute.

An African Grey parrot at a UK zoo is telling visitors to “f**k off”.

…from Maynard.

Marv has declared jihad.

Marv has an announcement.

Unfortunately that includes my friend and companion of 18 years, Jay. He passed sometime today while I was at work. It appears to have been natural. Here is a picture of him taken just 2 weeks ago.

Rest in peace, buddy.

Also the newspaper.

Here’s some background on the world-famous dancing cockatoo, Snowball.

He’d like you to pay attention too.

Actually more like a finger.

Well, this is one way.

Yes, really.

Steve is annoying Marv and Maynard in honor of Alex.

Also from Steve, check out this 2001 video about Alex and Dr. Pepperberg. (It’s the 3rd episode down, “Entertaining Parrots”).
