Hello everyone,

I've been following the viral story about the grey parrot that (supposedly)
witnessed the murder of its owner with a lot of amusement. basically, as
the sentiment goes, the parrot should be considered to be a witness in a
murder trial. so i spent some time chatting with scientists and attorneys
about how a parrot as a murder witness might play out according to their
views. this is the story i came up with:

i hope you find it instructive and interesting.

cheers,
