Que pasa, Nigel? Grey parrot with impeccable British accent returned to Californian owner after four years... but now he speaks SPANISH African grey parrot Nigel lived in California with British owner Darren Chick
But went missing in 2010 - not to be found for four more years
By the time Nigel was returned his accent - and language - transformed
May have learned Spanish from Panamanian dog-groomer who found him

A British-sounding parrot called Nigel went missing for four years - and came home with a Spanish accent.
Nigel, who lived in Torrance, California with his British owner, Darren Chick, flew away one day in 2010, and was gone so long he was given up for lost.
But, in a case of mistaken identity, Nigel was returned to another pet owner, who was also looking for their African grey parrot, and was able to pass him on to Chick.
