sulphur crested cockie



This big bird I inherited from my MIL, pat had hand raised him and he is 37 yrs old. When she had a stroke 2 yrs ago Wayne bought him home whilst she was in hospital and rehab..the bloody thing used to hiss at me and I at it..we where very scared of each other. These birds love company and love to cuddle with you..took me a while to get used to him sitting on my shoulder and saying give us a kiss..and offering his beak to my lips..fair dinukum they are big buggers and he could take ya finger off with one crunch..or take ya neck out as he snuggles into it..lucky we like one another now..xx
