Mistyparrot Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 The Huffington Post an on line news magazine has honored the two year anniversary of Alex's passing by putting up a video of him in action. I expect most here have seen it before but it is good to remember such an outstanding ambassador of Greydom. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/02/alex-the-parrot-the-smart_n_275462.html Steve N misty
danmcq Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Thanks, that video is always good to watch again. :-) Alex and Dr. Pepperburg certainly turned the world upside down in terms of Parrot intelligence.
Joolesgreyuk Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 It just goes to show they aren't simply repeating words and sounds they hear, sooo intelligent.
judygram Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Thanks so much Steve for providing that link, I always enjoyed watching Alex "work":cheer: he was such an amazing creature and missed by many.
JillyBeanz Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Gosh, I can't believe it was two years ago. This was obviously before we had Harvey and I was amazed at his intelligence. This is when I vowed that one day that I would have an absolutely magnificently intelligent African Grey. Well, one out of two aint bad as they say!!!! :laugh:
Luvparrots Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Thanks for sharing this video with us Steve. I wish Alex was still with us, there was so much more to learn about him and his intelligence.
