Great large parrots, with the complexity, time commitment that goes with owning a large parrot. People who are either inexperienced or unwilling to spend time on training / socializing a parrot will eventually cause (or allow) the parrot to become very nippy and overly noisy. They learn to talk quite well. I myself never owned an Amazon since I realize that at this point of my life (busy schedule) they are too demanding for me. Although my friends own them, so I know quite a bit about this species of parrot.
