Burping parrot banned from restaurant
A belching parrot has been barred from a Chessington restaurant, after complaints from diners about its bad manners.
Chessington World of Adventures resident Brindsley was at a meet and greet in the Holiday Inn next door to the Leatherhead Road park when the rude noises let slip. The loud burps echoed around the Langata brasserie and grill, leading diners to complain the cheeky parrot was setting a bad example to their children.
He has now been banished to the outdoor terrace for the rest of the May half-term holidays, unless his behaviour improves.
Zookeeper Kate Wilkinson said: “Macaws are highly intelligent and quick to associate signals with certain behaviours. As soon as Brindsley saw everyone tucking into their lunch it triggered him to make a burping noise. I have no idea where he learned that from, it certainly wasn’t me.”
