Ja! And these birds can live to be 100 or more!!! Can you imagine a smart ass bird living that long!
And BIG too. Some of the parrots I've seen were like 3 feet long with tail.
Some of the guys who were on battleships off the coast of S. America told me that there were times birds flying from off land were so damned big they set off the alarms shipwide.
One day he was on a flight deck on one of the carriers and a bird he said the size of a small plane landed on the ship. Big bright colors too. The captain ordered no one to shoot it.
Fuckin' nuts! Now if you really wanna be impressed, I could tell you some dolphin and octopus/squid experiments that would fuck your day up.
We don't even know the meaning of smart yet.
