My African Grey will engage a bit with the sampler app Keezy. I thought I had video of it on YouTube but I can't find it, maybe I never uploaded it.

Thought the sounds would engage him but he's very entertained by the center black button expanding menu on that app. Now I need to make a bird game...

He likes both our phones and our tablets, mostly to chew on but he sometimes engages in weird social ways. He'll let me scratch his head while it is resting on the phone but otherwise not, only my wife gets to scratch his head usually. It isn't a usual one-person-bird bonding thing, I can otherwise interact with him normally, train him, and hang out with him but the head scratching is her time unless there's a phone there.

He also likes my stylus/Pencil but mostly because there's a nice soft tip to destroy on the end.
