1. African Grey
The African Grey is widely considered to be the smartest of the talking birds, and one of the most intelligent in the animal kingdom overall. Some experts say they approach the ability to speak and relate concepts on the level of a human toddler. Of the two standard “domesticated” species, the Timneh African Grey tends to learn to speak at a younger age than the Congo African Grey.

I have a gray parrot, she is incredibly smart and talks more than me I swear, lol:) She can say a lot of things correctly (it's snowing, when it is snowing for example) and she also make up full conversations with herself with creatively made up words. Tooooo cute!!! ♥
interesting article, thanks for sharing :)

i have two conures that talk.. the smaller dusky conure speaks well but in a donald duck tone and the larger blue crown conure speaks extremely well and very clear and knows what she is talking about when she speaks not just rambles out words.
