Maybe "birdbrain" isn't an insult after all.

They trained him not to sing to the cops. “Never betray the family”

There is no excuse to not learn Japanese now. Even a parrot can do it...

My 15-year-old African Grey, Buster, has an incredible vocabulary. “Get in the water. Take a bath.” “Time for night?” “Honey! I’m home!” Greys are the star talkers of the bird world, and they are happy and playful. They live about 60 years, although some have lived as long as 80 years. He is an excellent companion. If anybody asked me for a tip about parrots, I’d say this: BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU SAY AROUND YOUR GREY! You might not be happy with the phrases he picks up in YOUR voice! Buster’s apparent favorite phrase (in my voice) is a whispered, “Oh, sh*t.”

The parrot also provided his full home address, down to the street number, and even entertained the hospital staff by singing songs....
thats' a smart good bird, he seems to be much much smarter than most (if not all) Democrats.....It does appear more intelligent than some republicans.

But Yosuke apparently wasn't keen on opening up to police officials.If there is one thing I can't stand it's a parrot with attitude!
Did Yosuke have a tiny baseball cap that he wears backwards?

I was in a busy pet shop many years ago, and noticed a parrot cage hanging from the ceiling in a corner of shop. The parrot was standing on the floor of the cage near the bars quietly mumbling something. I walked over closer to the cage so I could hear him...he was saying “Open the door...open the door!”.

My guess it that it's owners later asked the bird why it didn't talk to the police. The response might have been “ hey. I'm no stool pigeon.”

My sister has an African Grey (named Gabby) who can not only repeat an entire telephone conversation, including the sound of the telephone ringing, but when another of her birds falls off its perch, will ask anxiously, “Are you all right?”
They are now teaching him to sing the Doxology - to the tune of Hernandos Hideaway.
They are obviously very intelligent birds.

Of course he didn’t talk to the cops -
he’s a parrot, not a canary!
