Some of you know my personal interest in interspecies communication. Well, one of the pioneers in that arena has died. Alex, an African gray parrot, was definitely a pioneer and a leader in complex interspecies communication and he shared that space with just a very few other non-human animals.
Alex was 31 years old.

Sad...I really loved hearing about and watching video of Alex. From what I understand, that's too young for an African Grey. I also love the way he ended his days with some variation of, “You be good, see you tomorrow. I love you.”
