An English-speaking parrot that disappeared four years ago has finally returned to its owner — but now speaks Spanish.
Nigel, a grey African parrot, flew away from his home in California in 2010 but was returned to his British owner, Darren Chick, after he was discovered in Torrance, California.
Mr Chick says his bird’s British accent is gone, replaced by fluent Spanish.
Nigel was discovered by Julia Sperling, who owns a dog-grooming parlour, after she took him in as he matched a missing pet advertisement she had seen.
