I agree Letty and not only are The African Gray's smart, I've decided that MOST birds are much smarter than they've been given credit for. I would NEVER take offense at being called a "bird-brain"! lol!

Our hummers come right up in front of your face and then fly over to their feeders if they are empty or getting low - and that's just one example!

Unbelievable! To get a bird to yawn? So cool! Thanks, Jeanne for sharing this. A welcome break to the day!

My Aunt used to raise African greys and still has one - Jocko. He's also quite amazing.
