I’ve seen a lot of strange things in my day involving sports and animals.  From waterskiing squirrels to streaking dogs, I’ve pretty much seen it all.  However, I would have never guessed that there was a parrot out there who knew how to play air hockey.

Kili, a Senegal Parrot, knows how to play air hockey!  Well, not with the actual air hockey puck pushing thingy, but she knows how to put the puck in the goal.  That’s pretty much the point of the game, so she’s at least got the hard part down.  She shows no mercy on that puck, repeatedly putting it in for scores.

If this keeps up, I would like to watch an air hockey game between two parrots.  I’m pretty sure that would be must see TV.

Thanks to NBC Sports for the story.
