LONDON (AFP) - A foul-mouthed parrot previously owned by a lorry driver has been banished from public areas in a British animal sanctuary after repeatedly embarrassing his keepers, they said.
Barney, a five-year-old Macaw, is now kept indoors at Warwickshire Animal Sanctuary in Nuneaton, central England, when outsiders visit after abusing dignitaries with swearword-littered insults.
"He's told a lady mayoress to f..(expletive) off and he told a lady vicar: 'And you can f... off as well'," sanctuary worker Stacey Clark said.
Nor did the forces of law and order escape, she added.
"Two policemen came to have a look at the centre. He told them: 'And you can f... off you two wankers'."
Clark said sanctuary workers believed Barney either picked up the phrases from television or was taught them by his previous owner, a lorry driver who emigrated to Spain.
"He does say 'Hello, big boy' and 'Thank you' when you give him a biscuit," she added.
"But it's mainly naughty words and always to the wrong people. We're trying to teach him not to swear. Macaws are very intelligent birds."

Reminds me of when I was a kid. We had a pet-store in the mall nearby that had a cursing bird in it. This thing used to call everybody the "C" word, and tell people to f off, etc.... It was great!! Especially when you are a young teenager..:D
The bird was eventually taken away, but it was fun while it lastedReceiver: harmankardon AVR235

My bird, a military macaw named BB (short for big bird) started saying MF just a plain as day for a while after I watched Pulp Fiction, but he eventually stopped and hasn't done it since.
But Samual Jackson only said that phrase about 200 times in that movie! -
