Parrot
Parrot, term applied to a large group of gaudy, raucous birds of the family Psittacidae. Parrot also is used in reference to any member of a larger bird group, order psitttaciformes, which includes cookatoos(family Cacatuidae) as well. Parrots have been kept as cage birds since
ancient times, and they have always been popular because they are
amusing, intelligent, and often affectionate. Several are astonishingly
imitative of many sounds, including human speech.
