Another Kind of Mind: A Talking Bird Masters English [Hardcover]

Available from these sellers.

Book Description

Blue & Gold Macaw Arielle speaks freely and through the words she has learned, she assembles coherent combinations of sentences, which represent her thoughts. She is the first macaw to reveal such a linguistic ability through her free speech. One might argue that the study of natural bird communication leads to the idea that birds have language, so by learning human language, an astute parrot is merely learning a second language.
