Parrot with British accent vanishes, returns four years later speaking Spanish

TORRANCE -- When Nigel vanished four years ago, he spoke with a cultivated British accent.

Little is known about where the African grey parrot went, what he did -- or who he was with -- in those missing years. But when he was reunited with his owner, Darren Chick, in Torrance last week, the British accent was gone and the bird was chattering in Spanish, often mentioning the name "Larry."

Now they need to find "Larry"
