Marley, an Umbrella Cockatoo who is a former feather plucker after his previous owner left for 2 years and this bird was left alone..so he became neurotic and started plucking, he has since stopped and his feathers are growing back nicely, although there may still be some permanant bald spots
i saw marley in an ad on Petfinder.com from the "maspeth bird haven"(they rescue and adopt out birds) in queens, ny..after contacting them, and a visit to see him on tuesday.. marley is now in my care..and i couldn't more happy with him..he's a true clown..if we walk away from him, he mumbles "i love you" and waves with his feet if he see's any of us..a true character, and a sweetheart
anyway, he was born in '92, making him just around 15 years old.
if your wondering..he is named marley because of his love for bob marley music, LOL..he jumps up and down and attepts to sing along(even hits some notes perfectly)
here are some photos of him and his cage
and heres a video of him snacking on a piece of banana
