    I found a goddam african gray parrot in my front yard outside my apartment yesterday. had it for a couple hours then returned it to his owner. it was fun but I'm glad the bird is gone. may get a reward down the line.

    • lol cool. Looks like he had a fun day out..

    • i hear these ones like to talk. did it say anything?scarabin
    • actually it was stone silent, which is unusual for any Gray. it had been missing for 2 months. hence long toenails.sarahfailin
    • How did you find it's owner?

    • They need a lot of attention or they'll start plucking their own feathers.pinkfloyd
    • They are social birds. They need friends. You have to talk to them and play.Ben99
    • I hope his owner is a good owner. Maybe the bird escaped from him because he's a dick? You just send him back to jail! ;-) jkBen99
    • my step dad has one of these. super smart and awesome. very expensive. are you sure you got the right owner? he looks happy! :)sea_sea
    • i know someone who has a bunch, I heard their beaks are strong enough to chop your finger off!HijoDMaite
    • Yea I heard they shoot lava out of their eyes and don't need to flap to take off due to antigravity cells under the wings

    • I was in a relationship with someone who had been a researcher at the MIT Media Lab in the early 2000s. Irene Pepperberg was working with her gray parrots thereJosev
    • every evening so i would hang out with her group and watch her teach/train the parrots. They're such smart creatures and each had their own personality.Josev
