THEY HAD TOO MANY BIRDS!
African Greys are absolutely the smartest of all the parrot species in my opinion. Years ago I saw a news report about Alex, an African Gray who was part of a research project at a major university in Arizona. His profound intelligence and ability to carry on an interactive conversation just amazed me and I have been a fan of his ilk ever since. Gizmo is another stellar example of the extreme intelligence of these birds.
Amazing 🤩 I inherited mum’s Grey. He said things in her voice and spoke to us in context. Extremely intelligent! We could never handle him though, unfortunately, he could bite real bad! He died last year aged 54, and I still find myself listening out for him. His last words to me after his final fit were ‘alright Pol’? Poor old boy😢. Enjoy your birdie!! ❤

Amazing how incredibly intelligent these parrots are!!!! I especially loved when she told him: "Your funny." And he replied: "Sorry can't help it." Like WHAT?! Clearly they have coherent intelligible conversations with understanding of the meaning. Unbelievable. He's too adorable. Glad he was rescued. 😍❤

Apparently, they already had other birds that they were bonded with, and Gizmo likely didn't get along with the other birds. So as the last one in, he was the bird that got the least attention. I've known other people who had to give up a new bird, because the birds they already had would attack it. So their only option was in their opinion, was to keep Gizmo alone by himself. Just glad that Gizmo has found a wonderful new home.

@@d.e.b.b5788 Possibly. Also, African Greys tend to be very picky when it comes to choosing friends. That's why if you want to have one as a pet, you should always go to a breeder who has hand reared and has a number of them. You should enter their aviary and choose one that seems the friendliest to you. Never just buy one where that one is the only option.

Greys like Gizmo are some of the smartest parrots, they can sometimes fully converse and understand what humans are saying. They are some of the best candidates for actual human to animal conversation. I'm assuming they learn to speak the same way an infant does- by picking up on what's going on and connecting certain words with actions, objects, or emotions. Beautiful creatures.

They share a similar part in their brain like us that allows them to do that. Just shows how big that part really is. It's small but big. They have to learn how to talk by a certain age or they won't grasp it just like us. 🤷 and to say humans aren't genetically mutated is a lie because animals walk the earth before humans and look at all the similarities we have to some of them
I’m so glad you talked about African Greys using English - CORRECTLY and IN CONTEXT. My cousin has a grey, Buddy, and it is absolutely true that greys can communicate in English just like people do. One day, we were standing outside the house but Buddy could hear us, and he said ‘you’re talking too loud". My cousin had a dog Buddy didn’t like. The dogs name was Max. My cousin pulled a turkey out of the oven, and Buddy said, "Awwww Max!” Then made a laughing sound. There’s so many more examples with Buddy. People who don’t know greys, or even animals, think I’m nuts when I tell them greys can speak human language and are complicated as humans are - but it’s so true. And Gizmo shows that too.

This bird is so fortunate to have you in his life. What a beautiful bird! You are blessed to have him in your life too!

@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
Gizmo is a beautiful soul. He can actually fly, his muscle wastage means he cant control his flight and had an accident. Got to say, it took a few days of silence that broke my heart but Gizmo is back to his normal self. I adore Giz and his humans ❤️
I have never heard a bird speak so clearly like this bird does. He knows that he is with a family that will love him forever!
The wonder of animals. They know so much more than we realise. Gorgeous Gizmo ! I am addicted to his Instagram page!

This is everything wonderful! Thank you for YOUR service! ❤️
I love Gizmo. I follow him on Instagram and get joy from listening to him
He looks like my boy Rio, that I recently lost to an illness. He would talk to my mother and me and join in conversations in a way that we never could have expected. He was a rescue as well and knew a few words when we got him. He learned to talk, sing, and even make up his own 'words' to songs. I think we entertained him as much as he did us. I miss him every day as if I lost a child.

I understand, it's very difficult and there's nothing anyone can say to ease the heartbreak. You know what you gotta do. You need another animal to care for love and spoil. God bless you Mr Lyons

Yes ! my quaker parrot has made up a few of his own words and sayings (strawbapple is one) and even a little gesture we started to call "upwing" he knows what the hell is going on and it blows our minds and makes is laugh all the time!
This bird speaks plainly where every word is understandable. Just beautiful. Glad he's in a home where he's loved.

😭❤️😭❤️ omg, what an absolutely beautiful lil guy! ❤❤❤
I am so grateful that he is no longer in that dismal situation of being in a room on his own…
He looks so much better with you guys than when the video first started and showed his condition with the others, I hope y’all see how much better he looks because he’s happy & well taken care of ❤
I can't belive how much Gizmo is actually interacting and is knowing exactly what to say! Usually parrots just pick up phrases but he actually knows what he's saying!❤️❤️

he also shows clear body attitude keen to birds pairing with the human words he says; while most parrots stay still and repeat

All Greys do. They understand the context and the concepts behind words, this isn't anything unprecedented for them.
He’s wonderful!!!
They need SO MUCH ATTENTION,,, I just couldn’t handle it!!! Having 10 animals,,, there’s nothing left of me sometimes. I pray that each bird finds his perfect home. ❤❤❤❤
Still blows my mind every time I see a bird this intelligent.
What an incredible soul he is. I've never seen such a character. He truly is one of a kind ❤
He is really a very special parrot.
Gizmo is such a beautiful bird and so gifted. His understanding of the English language and peoples emotions while conversing is beyond words. He is simply amazing! ❤ May God always bless him 🙏
I’m heartbroken and may never get over it. My Congo African Grey just passed away after being my companion from a baby for 24 years. He had a genetic issue and took him to vet hospital and he didn’t survive the stress after the tests. He talked in context like this and even asked us appropriate questions. I’ll never get over losing him. Will miss him forever. I’m too old now to get or adopt another one. I have put in for volunteering with birds but have not heard from anyone. There is nothing like a grey though. Only bird I’d ever want again,

@Robert Ray. It’s ok. I’m feeling better now after some time has passed. I know now after the autopsy he would not have lived much longer. Despite popular belief many African Greys do not live much past 25 years in the wild nor captivity. In the wild they fall pray to predators both animal and human. In captivity they do not live any longer than that sometimes because they are genetically prone to hardening of the arteries which chokes of blood supply to the liver or or their organs and they die of heart attack or stroke. Even Einstein the famous African Grey who had great care did not have long life. An African Grey can live longer if they can be prevented from eating nuts and seeds which are candy to them and cause fatty liver or hardening of arteries. I am very glad mine did not have fatty liver because that is painful to them and a slow death. Im glad mine died quickly and without pain. To live long African Greys need to be flighted for optimal exercise to thwart of the fattty diet diseases. Not sure how it is working out but some authorities are presently recommending only a teaspoon of seeds or 1 walnut sized nut per day perhaps given as a treat and the rest to be vegetable and whole grain pellets, much fresh vegetables and some fruit. African Greys usually hate pellets or mine did. Sometimes can trick them into eating them by making bird health friendly baked items and bake them into it for them to pick out like a “seed” and eat for fun. I did not know the importance of this seed seeking foraging behavior when I got my bird and the internet wasn’t perfected then. No youtube or anything. My bird could not be flighted when I got them because the pet store had clipped his wings, I never clipped him but he never learned to fly. If I ever had a bird again I’d try to rehab it to fly while young for the exercise. So much to lean and know and even the scientists still don’t know a lot. I kept my bird a little skinny thinking I was avoiding fatty liver disease which I did. But I was unaware African Greays will still get a fatty disorder calledhardening if of the arteries anyway if given more than a teaspoon of seed mix in a day. My seed mix had pellets but African Greys always gravitate toward eating as much seed as they can get away with. Nothing brings more joy than a well cared for very interactive bird. Even when my bird was beginning to not feel as well he still hid it and played, talked a lot and had a good time,
His voice is so « human » 😮 Usually, the other birds' voices are higher than his own. He really has a very human voice. And on top of that, he speaks perfectly and looks like he understand what he is saying, so it accentuates even more this impression of humanity. Incredible bird

Alex the Gray Parrot was able to do complexities and associations and make up words that he didn't know the correct word, combining words to make up one word. I guess Alex was a female.
he is a gift from God
0:17 "who let the birds out" wow 😂
I loved that the bird and her family made each other great. So sweet😢
Gizmo is probably the most talkative and amazing parrot I have ever seen!
Hearing his story just breaks my heart. What a wonderful bird. He didn't want much, just some love. To see him getting ALL the love he ever wanted and then some is just so wholesome. Thank you guys for taking such good care of him. You can really see his personality blossom under your care. Most likely the coolest bird on YT (and maybe the entire observable universe) 😍💖👍🦜
He is so sweet❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

So precious! I rescue parrots & currently have five. Breeders are despicable for creating an endless supply of these intelligent animals that live for DECADES & often have numerous owners.
Wow. His voice is amazingly human-like . It surprised me. He is beautiful.
I had an African Red Belly parrot that unfortunately passed away at 28 years old. The way Gizmo says Whatcha doing? Sounds almost the same as my bird Reggie, parrots are so smart. He even made the phone ring noise and said Hello? When the phone rang 😂
What a beautiful story.
