Parrots have been known to purposefully get drunk. I had a small type of parrot once and he would drink, I shared wine, beer, gin and tonic, and such, he would drink a bit then cut himself off after a certain amount, and would throw it around with his beak, but that's a thing with that breed they are known for throwing fruit off of trees for no apparent reason.
