I've had Australian Cockatoos or Galahs as pets and they are incredibly smart, intelligent and extremely inventive. Now I have a Peach-faced Parrot who lives inside the house, is allowed out the cage every day and has a custom made stand decorated with tools such as bells and whistles on chains that it plays with. Its first thing it taught itself was how to lift the cage door, holding it open using a short piece of a stick, so it could come and go as it pleased, recently it learned how to lift the chains on which the toys hang from the cup-hooks screwed into the wall/stand to either lengthen or shorten the chain by simply changing whichever link is required to achieve the desired result.
Sometimes I find merely observing this bird to far more entertaining than watching television.
