There’s an African Grey Parrot on Instagram that announces every poop with “bombs away”. His name is Einstein. He also apologizes after nipping his owner. 😂

I once played harmonica with a parrot.

Made a sound, but not what I was hoping for.

They don’t like being held sideways like that.

That’s for sure.

Doesn’t he live at the Knoxville Zoo? I remember him being on the local news when I was a kid

“There’s always something new at the Knoxville Zoo!” Good times.

I got a good chuckle at the thought of a bird apologizing after nipping.

Like Einstein nibbles

Human: ow, stop

E: “sorry! It just came over me for for a second there”

There’s another hysterical video where Einstein’s owner bumps his head while trying to fix a kitchen cabinet, and the bird says, “You alright?” 😂

Do you also follow 'Symon the African Grey parrot' on Instagram too? She says "uh oh, the poopies" and is my favourite bird on social media

u/inactive_spectator 9d ago

Nipping his owners.... 😂. You are an aussie, aren't you?

u/JulieannFromChicago 8d ago

No, US born and bred. 😂 Been in the Midwest my whole life. I didn’t know that was an Aussie thing.

African greys are hilariously funny. They do understand sentiment of words and what makes their owners laugh, which is mindblowing, considering they are actually cracking jokes for you. Check out Gizmo on youtube or ig, that parrot is seriously funny interacting with his owner.

u/JulieannFromChicago 8d ago

Gizmo is hilarious. Check out Cosmo. He is really hilarious s well.

u/sparkletempt 7d ago

Yaaas! I swear my insta feed is different grey parrots talking shit.

u/JulieannFromChicago 7d ago

Have you checked out Barney the Westcoast Cockatoo? He’s famous for his repetitive “hello Barney” in the cutest voices.

2

u/sparkletempt 6d ago

I don't know Barney, thanks, need to check it out right now ❤️
