What a beautiful bird! But the petstore has his stand in the street rather than on the sidewalk! I'm surprised he hasn't been stolen. Then again, he's in Greece and not the United States.

The video is provided in the above link by Yahoo which will restrict viewing to all IPs originating outside the US that are not allowed to view. Not sure why, but they restricted IPs in Europe from viewing and while I lived in the Netherlands my wife and I had no access to such news streams as found on Yahoo, CNN, or other sites.

The report however was originated by the BBC and you can find their broadcast of it here:
BBC NEWS | Europe | Greek parrot in parking fine row

This is not a link directly to the video but to the page where you can click a "Watch" link and a media player window will pop-up and play the video for those who couldn't see.
