At 0:19 the parrot was like: "Your turn now, continue the beat!" xD love it!
That "finger snapping" with the head bob and the wrist flick. Wow. That one just kills me :) Way to go, Ollie!
Fucking amazing... Birds, to me, are one of the most free souls in the world. They're more intelligent than people give them credit for. I love hearing them chirping and singing happily, it warms my heart. I love how she claps and he's like "Alright...." he's so modest xD
It would have been a good nice comment if you hadn’t started it off with vile vulgar swearing.
Thanks for the comments its actually his Birday today!!
Hatched today 11 years ago
50 to 70 years
How is he doing now, 4 years later? I have a grey that is 26 years old!
My African grey loves listening to this and he even copies the whaoo at the end lol
Awesomely smart bird! Love the way he "snaps" his claw at the beginning!!
Thanks everyone for the comments. Here is a bit of info about the little chap. Ollie is now ten years quite a character to have around, he picks up noises etc if he is interested and it will only take a couple of days. He is not given any treats for performing he is just left to do his own thing. He is well looked after and fed a healthy diet. He loves to dance and whistle along to music, not always in time or tune (that says a lot for me!) Feel free to share Ollie's videos on the www
Hi,
Your parrot is the most spectacular bird I've ever seen.
You've trained him very well and he obviously loves you to respond in such a way.
You've both made my week. Ty.x
I like how it "snaps its fingers" in the beginning.
I play this almost every day for the grey Charlie. He loves it. He's started whistling the first part of the tune.
So cute :)
These birds are so intelligent. It's amazing. Good job, Ollie! Can never say no to a little positivity and encouragement from Monty Python.
They can live between 50 and 70 years.
*80 years
50 to 70 years? And are they never pining for the fjords?
And can they carry a coconut from Africa to Europe?
Thanks everyone for the nice comments. He is very clever as are most Greys and he is like a family member. He has not been filmed much lately as he thought he could eat the camera! I think you get the picture though of his talents. Check out his other clips and feel free to share. I'm not a FB person but since Birdtricks shared his video on there he has become very popular
Ollie is has perfect pitch!
My three-months african grey is learning to whistle thanks Ollie for.
Too dear for words. I love these birds. I have one (13yrs old) and he knows so many nursery rhymes. They are so clever the way they pick from one's
actions and what you say!
Hello Jabbers. How are you doing today?
They are know as one of the smartest animals alive for a reason.
Now that is one talented bird!
This is my grey's favorite song! She sings it whenever she wants the CD played.
Beautiful voice Ollie! Love you!
This bird Ollie has limitless talent and if l had the time l would loved to have an African Grey bird of my own.
Animals do have a soul and appreciate thinks like music...
What a joyfull pet to own, I bet you have some real fun with him around.
A live parrot, some one quickly call John Cleese!!! :-P
"Beautiful plumage!"
Happy belated Birthday Ollie.

He gives himself a "good boy!" Because he *is* a good boy!
Now THAT was awesome
that's just amazing. most humans couldnt sing note for note what was played. amazing.
Hello Daniel. How are you doing today?
Happy Birday Ollie!
My Grey Varo loves this video! We watch it together all the time and she tries to whistle along. You're a star, Ollie!
Ollie was featured on Huffington Post yesterday! Congrats. You are sooooo smart, little bird!
Is Ollie still with you? Has to be one of the smartest, most talented birds I’ve ever seen!
Ollie is still very much with us, he is still entertaining us every day and hopefully all those who watch him on TH-cam. Thank you for your comments.

Very talented! I'm glad you're teaching him good songs lol.
Hello 👋. How are you doing today?
Awesome Ollie
I leave the Farmville website on because my parrots love the music & sounds. We have such good laughs due to all the cows mooing, pigs oinking, and horses neighing.
Cute . So amazing trying to keep the rhythm going
how does this not have a million views?
So we were wrong to doubt the genuineness! Wonderful!
Hello Ann. How are you doing today?
He is adorable! I just showed his video to my chickens and they were intrigued and clucked along with him ha ha!

My African grey goes mental everytime I play Ollie's videos, he copies every single word 😂
Hey! That is a juvenile Norweigion Blue in its young grey colouring. Still has beautiful plumage. It looks like it has been at a little bit of a good squawk and will bed resting soon. Give him some spam.
this is really hilarious... thanks for sharing!
Truly an amazing creature ! It is a musical genius
Haha brilliant, my RIO Whistles the theme tune from the film The Great Escape with Steve McQueen. And talks day and night, and makes some amazing sounds, aren't they just amazing and intelligent 👍😁 👍

Wow! Our African Grey just does the whistling part. She's too shy to be filmed.
I wish my guys in the band could pick up a tune so swiftly!
