If you visit the city of Nagareyama in Japan, you can meet a very special parrot. His name is Yosuke Nakamura. He is an African grey parrot. Recently, Yosuke flew out of his cage and got lost. Oh, poor Yosuke¡¦
Luckily, police rescued him from a neighbor¡¯s roof. They took Yosuke to the police station. But they couldn¡¯t find out who Yosuke¡¯s owner was. So they took him to a nearby animal hospital.

Surprisingly, Yosuke told the animal doctor his name and address! ¡°I¡¯m Mr. Yosuke Nakamura,¡± the bird told the animal doctor. The parrot also told him his full home address. ¡°We checked the address, and found out the Nakamura family really lived there! So we told them we¡¯ve found Yosuke,¡± local policeman Shinjiro Uemura said.

The Nakamura family was very happy to see Yosuke again. They had been teaching the bird its name and address for about two years. And the smart parrot did exactly what his family told him to do -- recite his name and address to a stranger willing to help!
