Hi Jane,
In 1981 my parents [$ I were travelling through Wales and we stayed in a Bangor B[$B run by an elderly woman with an African Grey named "Bushman". He had been with her since around 1950. Spoke Welsh and had completely "redecorated" her kitchen to have see-through wooden doors ])
20 years after Bushman arrived, and long after his salty sea language had mostly vanished. Bushman laid an egg. So Bushman was actually Bushlady who loved the men
Who knows, your bird could be a very confused gender and just doesn't realize what it is :D
But I figure with today's testings you probably know for sure. Just pulling your leg a bit. :p
