The bird here kind of reminds me of the one in the animated sequence of "Bedknobs and Broomsticks". I wonder if that's what inspired Richard to use that voice- it's similar to that of Lennie Weinrib, who voiced the secretary birds.
Thanks so much for posting this. Her last performance on the street. wow. this is a great tribute you know. Her last performance on the street that really made her famous. God rest her soul. She will really be missed.
Oh my goodness! I had NO idea she died! I'm just finding this out really!!.. I mean, no one I know has said anything about her death! Aww.. :-( Wow.. my sister and I LOVED Alaina Reed Hall and may she rest in peace! <3 <3
@antsamthompson9 Yup, that's Madame Chairbird at the beginning alright. Magistrate of the Feathered Friends. Her voice has a bit more of a dip thong here, but I think it's still the same performer.
For those of you not ornithologically inclined, that waiter bird is a Skimmer Bird.

Alaina Reed + Richard Hunt = one of the best videos you've posted. Thank you so much for the tribute.

The beginning is very similar to one of the Waiter Grover sketches- complete with being out of cups.

Classic delivery by Richard Hunt, somewhat reminiscent of John Cleese in the dead parrot sketch.

I don't remember this Dead Parrot sketch. What happened in it.

@Garrettk41 I think so. Noel MacNeal's voice is very regonizable.
