This has not been determined and, rightly or wrongly, whichever source one consults will subscribe to either the theory of evolution, or Creation, with differing answers. As WikiAnswers aims to represent any view that is well-argued, both schools of thought will be addressed in this answer.
Currently, it is widely believed among the scientists who subscribe to the theory of evolution that birds are direct descendants of dinosaurs. Other scientists who follow the theory of evolution say evidence is becoming stronger to support the belief that dinosaurs are descendants of birds (see the related link below). Because evolution is a theory, there can be no definite answer. Either way, science tends to favour the belief that birds and dinosaurs probably shared a common ancestor.
Creationists will say that parrots and dinosaurs are completely different species. Their reasons for arguing the difference are as numerous as the evolutionists' reasons for arguing in favour of the relationship; therefore, a related link has also been included below to present the opposing view.
