Parrot tells firefighter to 'f*ck off' during rescue attempt

This bird was not in the mood to be saved.

Jessie, a bright yellow and turquoise Macaw parrot, escaped her home in Edmonton, UK over the weekend and stranded herself on her neighbor's roof for three days. Concerned that she was injured, her owners called the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) for help. When the RSPCA was unsuccessful in coaxing Jessie down, the London Fire Brigade stepped in.

Jesse's owners told the firefighter to say "I love you" to try to bond with the bird and lure her back to safety. But when a firefighter trekked to the roof to tell her, Jessie started hurling expletives at him.

Watch manager Chris Swallow told Metro, "We then discovered that she had a bit of a foul mouth and kept swearing, much to our amusement."

Although Jessie responded with "I love you," she also told the firefighter to "fuck off."

The Fire Brigade also tried convincing Jessie to come to safety in Greek and Turkish, since her owners speak both, but the bird ignored them.

Despite the grumpy mood, Jessie appeared to be perfectly fine. She even flew to another roof, and then to a nearby tree where she was finally reunited with her owners.

On Tuesday, her owners sent the London Fire Brigade a thank you video from Jessie. Sort of.

"Jess," her owner asked. "You're going to say thank you?"

With the shadiest side eye, Jessie muttered "Thank you."
