Reggie the parrot was lured back home with a glass of his favourite red wine and a bowl of Pringles crisps An escaped parrot with a penchant for alcohol and crisps was lured back home with a glass of red wine and a bowl of Pringles.
Reggie was missing for more than 24 hours before owner Hubbell Walker came up with the plan to tempt him back by putting the treats on the windowsill.
And sure enough, as soon as the green-cheeked parrot spotted the feast he flew back to the house in Brockley, south east London.
Mr Walker, 27, said: 'I was devastated when I found out Reggie was gone - you can get quite attached to a pet parrot..
'He loves eating Pringles and drinking red wine - he's quite an unhealthy parrot really.'
He added: 'I don't know where he got the taste for it, but if there is any alcohol around he's there in a flash.
'It's such a relief to have him home.'
