Parrot landed near the chicken coop and found Hen in her pen. Tapping the mesh of the pen with his beak he said, "Poor domesticated fowl. It's unworthy of us Psittaciformes to surrender our freedom."
Hen looked up from her scratch and blinked. "Cluck."
"Ah yes," said Parrot, studying Hen. "Speech must be the first to go. How humbling that must be."
"Cluck."
Parrot shook his head in disgust. "Are your thoughts as simple as your speech?"
"No," said Hen, rolling her eyes. "I'm saying you're a cluck. Quiet birds can make a point without unnecessary words or unfair assumptions."
