Birds are highly intelligent animals, and many scientific studies have shown that they have unexpected learning, memory and problem-solving abilities, some of which are even comparable to those of primates.


For example, birds such as parrots and crows can imitate human speech or sounds, and can understand and use simple tools. Birds such as chickadees also display amazing social intelligence, including behaviors such as leadership, reciprocal cooperation, and sharing. In addition, research has also found that some birds can learn new skills and methods by observing behavioral patterns, an ability called "insight."


Overall, although birds have different brain structures from humans, they also have unique intelligence and cognitive abilities. This intelligence helps birds adapt to different ecological environments and has an advantage in natural selection.
