Grey parrot (Psittacus erithacus) numerical abilities: Addition and further experiments on a zero-like concept

A Grey parrot (Psittacus erithacus), able to quantify 6 or fewer item sets (including heterogeneous subsets) by using English labels (I. M. Pepperberg, 1994), was tested on addition of quantities involving 0-6.
