In the late 1800’s, there was a Scotch Whiskey company who trained 500 gray parrots to repeat certain marketing slogans. They then distributed them out for free to various pubs and grocers.

Parrots eat a mixture of nuts and seeds, as well as flowers, nectar and fruit. Sometimes they also enjoy tucking into small insects.

Once a male and female parrot get together, then they generally stay together, even outside of the breeding season.

Wow!

The record for the oldest living parrot is held by one cockatoo, namely Cookie, who was 82-years-old, when it passed away in 2016.
