    You might be interested in some of Dr Irene Pepperberg’s work. She worked a lot with parrots specifically, and pretty well showed that they’re capable of an actual working vocabulary, not just mimicry.

    Edit - Damn there were like 5 mis-auto-corrected words in like 2 sentences. Apologies to anyone who tried to read that and thought they were having a stroke.
