This is What I call a WATCH COCKATOO!

I'm sure many of you have seen this. It's one of my favorites and I had to share with all of you Cockatoo people.

That is the first time I have ever seen that video. Hilarious!

Whilst they are a beautiful bird the cocky- I was a little disappointed one day when I went out to my aviaries and found that there was a cocky chewing through the wire on one of the sections and let out my pair of green check conures. I wasn't too happy! Having a lot of birds in backyard - both wild and mine............the cockatoos visit regularly. I can have anything up to 40 in the backyard at once. They fly in like big jumbo jets.

I was like "D: That's an aussie!".

I think he's brazilian for the comical aspect of the accent - sounds a bit like the Ramon (sp?) penguin from Happy Feet... The Robin Williams one that has the short hairdo. lol

Other penguin of NO SIGNIFICANCE: "Why're you hugging me?"
Ramon: "Because he told me to."
Other penguin of NO SIGNIFICANCE: "Well, stop it."
Ramon: "Nah, you like it!"

The cockatoos are beautiful to watch fly in and out of my backyard so freely. I was just a little upset when they let out my greencheecks. Never mind, I just hope that Romeo & Julie (the greencheeks) are happy where ever they may fly to. There are a few rainbow lorikeets in the wild here and also some musk lorikeets, so I am hoping that they may have joined them.
