They are highly intelligent, pretty, talk in dialogue and clean the yard better than any other bird.
Never understood the hate for them other than ranchers when we had warbles and the pies would literally dig a hole in a bovine.
Probably my all time favorite bird or at least in the top 5.
I like them too although I’ve shot my fair share too. I always think that if they were rare and in a pet store folks would lay hundreds for them.
Like you say, they’re super smart, can talk, can think for sure and love ****ing off cats and dogs. Too bad they’re so hard on the song birds, so are squirrels I guess.
