Ellie, an 11-year-old Goffin's cockatoo, calls a friend (Credit: Matthew Modoono/Northeastern University)

Parrots are highly social creatures. They need the companionship of other birds for their well-being. This is easy enough in the wild, where they live in large flocks. However, the parrots that live in captivity as pets are often bored and isolated. But a new study has found that modern technology may help alleviate the birds' loneliness.

    It's so cute how the parrots talked to each other, sang to each other, showed each other their toys, and even showed each other tricks that they knew. The part where they learned how to ring a bell so they can call another friend is so smart, don't you all think?

                That's really cool! I think they should make an app just for parrots (and maybe other animals that need to see or be around others of there kind). I own hermit crabs (though they should probably be left alone in the wild but I didn't know it at the time) and they need others of there kind too, they can communicate with sound called "chirping" (its pretty much a cricket and frog mix) but they mostly just hangout and use body language. 🦀

                This is awesome and all, but kinda sad at the same time when you think about how birds can't live their natural lives in flocks and stuff in the wild when they are kept in the house all the time where they can't talk to any other birds
