Fascinating isn' it Metatron!
Certainly makes me think a lot more about the suffering of animals who are factory farmed and then carted off to the abattoir!!!!
We have a couple of parrots ourselves. We've also had dogs for pets in the past. Communication is NOT limited to just verbal communication as anyone who has had a pet who is demanding something will know!!
Once Rocco, my umbrella cockatoo, was screaming bloody murder, so I went to the cage and stuck my finger in to rub his stomach. He grabbed my finger with his foot, tilted his head and said very softly and clearly, "You're a good bird."
Sometimes I think I'm the one being trained around here.

This is creepy, since I'm just reading Michael Crichton's latest book, "Next," and one of the characters is a talking, thinking African gray parrot.
