2005 · Film · documentary · 24 min
Sir David Attenborough narrates a documentary about the Kea, the world's only alpine parrot. Playful and destructive, it attacks cars, starts landslides and terrorises New Zealand ski resorts but behind the bad behaviour there's a sharp mind at work. David tries to play chess with a kea and discovers how its cheeky character is the key to its survival.

BBC made a 30min documentary "Kea the Smartest Parrot" about the birds, but unfortunately it has been removed from YouTube. There are some clips still there... and if you look hard enough you can still find it somewhere on the internet.
