Lost parakeet tells police where he lives
May 3, 2012 - 7:47AM
A pet parakeet was returned to its owner Wednesday after the lost bird told police its home address near Tokyo.
The male bird had escaped early Sunday morning from its owner's home in the city of Sagamihara, west of Tokyo, and remained at large before perching on the shoulder of a guest staying in a nearby hotel.
Handed over to local police, the bird did not speak until Tuesday evening, when it blurted out the names of the city and district where its owner's house is located, said a spokesman for the north Sagamihara police station.
It then produced the home's block and street number as a trio of astonished police officers listened to the now talkative bird.
The bird's owner, a 64-year-old woman, once lost another parakeet after it flew away and was determined to prevent a repeat, the spokesman told AFP.
"So the owner decided to teach the address to this parakeet after she bought it at a pet shop two years ago," he said.
"The bird's name was found to be Piko-chan as it said, 'You're pretty, Piko-chan'."

A lady went to her priest one day and told him, 'Father, I have a problem.
'I have two female parrots,
'But they only know to say one thing.'
'What do they say?' the priest asked.
They say, 'Hi, we're hookers! Do you want to have some fun?'
'That's shocking!' the priest exclaimed,
Then he thought for a moment .....
'You know,' he said, 'I may have a solution to your problem. I have two male talking parrots, which I have taught to pray and read the Bible .....
'Bring your two parrots over to my house and we'll put them in the cage with Francis and Peter.
'My parrots can teach your parrots to pray and worship, 'And your parrots are sure to stop saying ... that phrase ... in no time.'
'Thank you,' the woman responded, 'this may very well be the solution.'
The next day, she brought her female parrots to the priest's house.
As he ushered her in, she saw that his two male parrots were inside their cage holding rosary beads and praying.
Impressed, she walked over and placed her parrots in with them.
After a few minutes, the female parrots cried out in unison:
Hi, we're hookers! Do you want to have some fun?'
There was stunned silence ...
Shocked - one male parrot looked over at the other male parrot and said,
'Put the beads away, Frank, 'Our prayers have been answered!!!!'
