Recently, a video of a parrot flying away with a mobile phone went viral on social media.
The footage, shared by a Twitter user, sees a boy running after the parrot after it flew with his cell, before showing the neighbourhood with a bird’s eye view.
It came to a rest on a balcony. It took off again as people were watching it from outside of the house.
