    What a smart bird, and smart owners to teach him that! All people with birds who can talk should do that, just in case!

    This story comes at a good time. I hope someone will just recognize Tui from her youtube fame.

    Isn't that a great story? The first thing I thought when I read he gave them his name and address was, I would be so proud of him. It's funny, I am sure he had no idea what he was saying, but it got him home again. Good boy.

    Genius!
    I love happy endings.

    I should start working with Donovan & Indie on learning our address. Heck, if Donovan can learn to recite all of the song "You are my Sunshine", I would hope he could learn our address.

    We talked about this in school today, it's amazing!

    Now if only my dogs and cat could learn their telephone number and address, we'd be set!

    We once brought a dog back to his home, as he handily had a tag with his address on it on his collar - the collar itself had his name and phone number, woven right in. Turns out Archie had a habit of escaping when he could!

    Yeah; I've seen those! I want to get one but I figure if they'll lose the tags they'll probably lose the collar, too... next best option is tattooing and/or microchipping, probably Microchipping I'm just worried they might travel and they won't scan it

    Is the parrot is soooooo smart and knows his address, why didn't he get home on his own?

    And what happens when you move?
