Einstein loves the attention, she's always leaning towards the mic. XD
Mahiko Lee she wants her seed for doing the impressions
She's still kicking!
When he says I'm special it's so cute
It is I agree 😊
Good
She was such a great bird. the world will miss her.
Yooo I’m replying 11years later heeyyyyy
@@call_me_blue I'm replying a year later yoo
@@iibluesapphirex1058 I'm replying a year later too too
They are both great birds.
I hope she's still alive, she's like a miracle, it's hard to believe how amazing she is 😍😍😍😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
She died ages ago 😢
EINSTEIN has to be be the absolute BEST trained and talking parrot anyone has ever seen.
He never disappoints and his responses seem to be much more than just a sequential pre-rehearsed pattern to the sound " cues " or rehearsed performance because the trainer's introduction is very long,
I have also watched numerous videos of this bird going through his repertoire at random BY HIMSELF without the trainer cuing him....like rehearsing and practicing and when he does interact with his family it is RANDOM and yet relevant to what is going on.
This bird's intelligence and ability is much more than some animal just being able to mimic sounds
That is awesome. She is a very talented trainer.
If you need a good laugh. Then watch this. What an amazing parrot!
“OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD!” 😂😂
did anyone else cry watching this? i have no idea why, but i couldn't help but cry. Pretty beautiful stuff.
And I think Ein is a very lucky bird. She has only performed with the one trainer. Awesome enrichment for the sweet bird.
African Grey's are very smart birds.. They can pick up words by hearing people talk. These videos makes me want one!!!!
this is an absolutely adorable and very intelligent parrot
I work at a parrot refuge and the greys are the best parrot to work with. I call them the physicists of the parrot world because they break everything down to its basic elements.Put a box or a watermelon in with them and within hours it is just a bunch of tiny pieces. They are very tame and very curious more than other parrots. Grey All the Way!
I love african greys! my first run in with one was at an aviary, and I was waiting to see if it was going to say anything funny, and I kid you not, it looked at me and screamed, "Talk, damn you!"
I guess earlier, someone REALLY wanted him to say something...
I'm impressed by the volume of words and the speed that both the speaker and parrot were able to perform. It was smooth for the most part and the bird didn't even seem to think about any of it. Very well done.
Lol Your Comment is so old!!!!!!!
Hello from future
These birds and many others are quite sentient and understand a lot more than most would think. Einstein appears to have had food as a motivation to perform. I have an African grey who will play peek-a-boo, call my daughter, welcome me with 'hi boooyee' when I come home. Say 'out' to ask to get out. Make every sound made in the house and outdoors. What makes Grey's unique is their desire to mimic, but they grasp concepts as well and in cases such as Alex, can do simple math. Animals have souls.
My parrot Bodhi has a short video on my video's list here dedicated to Einstein! I gave Einstein the credit for teaching my Indian Ringneck these words/impression(s). My feathered bestie is a huge fan! 💜🐥
Awwww the girl's so nervous :(( She did great though
Einstein, you're the "BEST" and our "SUPERSTAR".
Parrot? What parrot?
STEPHANIE WHITE IS GORGEOUS !!!
what an adorable parrot!
i saw him on tv ages ago i had to see more!!! love him
I want a bird like that! I love Einstein!
Aww, that was so sweet. Einstein's awesome!
This is the best thing ever! that parrot has a better memory than me! Well Done
Wow
What I would really love to see is it actually putting into words what it is thinking. These birds are very intelligent (for an animal, that is).
I love Einstein! And now I love her even more!
Oh, and Albert was great, too! (Though now he might have been out-smarted!)
Hello
The video quality is much more better than few years ago. And sound too. Great!
5/5
That bird is absolutely incredible.
Wow ...... amazing bird
wow !!! amazing... alot of hardwork...
wow the audience didn't even give at some of the remarkable sounds this bird made
So cute.. and i like when the bird shits at 5:15 ! :-)
haha, cute bird :D
makes me think that Parrot's will be the first animal to get the ability to actually talk, and not answare to commands ;)
this amazing i have 6 parakeets i wish they could talk like einstein i love this bird my whole family would to

the most amazing bird ever!

the best i have ever watched
what an amazing bird!!!!!.....
Awww cant wait till my CAG starts talking! Shes only 3 and a half weeks xxx love u cheekii
Simply great :)
That was great. How many trigger phrases does it have a response to does anyone figure? That was far more than most trained dogs or pigs, and far more complex in many ways. Really an interesting thing to watch.
cute bird.. cute master..
So cute

SUPEERSTARR!!!!

god bless the parrot
She's like: "Shut up, and give me the f*cking treat, human! "

as awesome as the parrot is, i was paying more attention to how unbelievably beautiful Stephanie White is.
Its soo intelligent! soo amazing... :)
AMAAAAAZING
"A 5 pound peanut!" "Oh my god oh my god oh my god!"
XD
imagine coming home after a shit day and your spouse is screaming about something. and your kids are fighting. and then your bird starts repeating them. all night.
fabuleux
impressive!
4:00 Also sounds like Al Gore singing to the parrot.
Brilliant
awwz einstein ish sooooo cute! i want a birdie like that ^^
@Str8Thugs No he didnt, She kept feeding Einstein sunflower seeds,so the shells kept dropping to the floor
love the penguin sound!
she is so gorgeous
Is it me or the parrot keeps staring at her hands with nuts.
its a reward!
It's already amazing how she can talk while her face gets stuffed with seeds!
This will make folks never think of birds the same again as far as learning capabilities. This is truly an amazing parrot and one fantastic African Gray. I also appreciate that this bird looks very relaxed and has great looking plumage
There needs to be a little logo for when Einstein says "SuperStar!"
einstein is one amazing bird!
LOL!!! blowing the kiss, she sounds like a squeak toy!!!!! XD
good job
awsome.
and what do pirates like to drink? beer . LMFAO i lov her!
at 0:49 the bird takes a dump lol
