Parrots are beautiful birds and can be good pets.
They can't run, and they can't swim.
They can't read books or ride bicycles.
But they can do a lot of other things!
Like a lot of birds, parrots can fly, and they can jump.
They can climb trees, too!
And did you know that parrots can talk?
Pet parrots can learn words from the people they live with.
Next time you see a parrot, say "hello!"
Maybe it will say "hello" back to you!
