    Bob begs to differ :-). He is CERTAIN that BGs are the smartest birds on earth. After all, why else would so many people love and adore him (oops! "them")?

    My new Grey Miss Cleo is the smartest bird that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I used to own a B&G and now own a U2 and a YNA. By far Miss Cleo is the smartest animal I have ever met.
