NPR interview with Dr Irene Pepperberg

[Lyric]

Dr. Irene Pepperberg has a new book out about her work and relationship with Alex the grey. She recently did an interview on NPR and here is a link to the story in case anyone else is interested in checking it out:

Since her work with Alex really led the way for the world to find out that these animals really can communicate with humans (which many bird owners already knew but the rest of the world wouldn't admit!) I find anything about her and Alex quite fascinating. Anyway, hope you all enjoy it too.

Thanks for that link, Jen! Dr. Pepperberg and Alex were the beginning of the whole saga for me, certainly - I can still remember sitting in my little gable apartment in Germany in 1981, reading the article about them in one of my science magazines, with my jaw hanging open for the whole article!
