“Jessie had been on the same roof for three days and there were concerns that she may be injured which is why she hadn’t come down. “Our crew manager was the willing volunteer who went up the ladder to try and bring Jessie down. We were told that to bond with the parrot, you have to tell her ‘I love you’, which is exactly what the crew manager did. “While Jessie responded ‘I love you’ back, we then discovered that she had a bit of a foul mouth and kept swearing, much to our amusement. Jessie also speaks Turkish and Greek, so we tried telling her to ‘come’ in both those languages too."Sadly she was having none of it, flying onto another roof and then to a tree. She was then finally retrieved by her owners. Despite the LFB-led rescue of the bird, the service reminded people that it should contact the RSPCA first over any animal rescue attempts. A spokesperson said:
“As with this incident, the RSPCA should be contacted in the first instance and we would always urge people to do the same if they see an animal stuck or in distress. If the RSPCA require our assistance, they will call us and we are happy to assist with our specialist equipment.”
