Lost parrot talks his way back home

An African grey parrot named Yosuke flew out of his cage and got lost.

Police rescued the parrot two weeks ago from a neighbor's roof in the city of Nagareyama, near Tokyo.

After spending a night at the station, he was transferred to a nearby veterinary hospital while police searched for clues, local policeman Shinjiro Uemura said.

He kept mum with the cops, but began chatting after a few days with the vet.

"I'm Mr. Yosuke Nakamura," the bird told the veterinarian, according to Uemura. The parrot also provided his full home address, down to the street number, and even entertained the hospital staff by singing songs.

They checked the address, and sure enough, a Nakamura family really lived there.

Yosuke literally talked his way back home once he got to the veterinary hospital. He evidently just didn’t want to talk to the police.
