This is a cockatoo, parrot, bird thingy. He lives in the zoo at El Valle in Panama. He says "Hola" a lot.
I think he thought I was going to give him food. He poked his head through the fence. He must have been disappointed. I only took his picture.

You've outdone yourself on this one. Damn! This is funny.
Doesn't he know you're never supposed to stick your head trough a fence? He's probably still stuck like that.
I was amazed that he poked his head through the fence. I gather lots of zoo visitors feed him. But not me.
I guess he didn't know that. He was the most animated bird at that zoo. He may well have been disappointed that we didn't feed him.
This is funny! And I thought birds had a brain the size of a pea! Howd' he know to do that? hee hee
Dufus, why didn't you feed the bird? You could have spared one of your Cheetos or something. Hell, give him a nickel to eat. I know you couldn't give him a penny because they are all in a mason jar. Wonderful photo though. I can just hear that bird making those disgusting bird noises.
Brains the size of a pea, maybe. But their heads are larger.
This bird didn't make disgusting bird noises oddly enough. It just kept screeching "hola, hola". Friendly, huh?
I've just read reports of a cockatoo being stuck in a fence. I rang up and let them know who caused this.
Damn, Mo, I thought we were friends.
We were friends until your obscene cruelty towards birds was revealed.
When they come at that bird with a stick of butter to free his head, he'll think that he's on the menu!
Nice picture, Dufus. As birds go, he looks pretty cute and the fact he can say "hola" makes him even cuter.
He wasn't hoping to get food from you, NoName. He was trying to peck out your eyes. Because that's what birds do. They peck out your eyes.
Hey, how come everybody call you Dufus, but I call you NoName? I kind of like NoName better, and believe people ought to make the switch. Just a thought.
It's not funny. NoName almost got his eyes pecked out. Because that's what birds do. They peck your eyes out.
In NoName's defense, this bird was about to peck his eyes out. Because that's what birds do. They peck your eyes out.
That is a marvelous photo! I like birds. I used to have a pair of Cockatiels. The talked some, but mainly they mimicked the baby crying. That was disconcerting. My husband used to let them fly around the house and they scared the hell out of me. They are big! I'm afraid of most flying and crawling things. But I still like them.
At least he doesn't swear. Although I've always wanted a parrot that'd make the pope blush.

Nice parrot. In Panama, does Polly want a cracker or a taco?
Are you kidding me? That bird'll probably eat the stick of butter.
Well he could say "hello" but not "hey, how about some bird seed". I don't think that's cute in my book.
You're just more familiar, Mike. Noname is my first name. (That doesn't sound like it makes a lot of sense. (I'm writing this with my hands over my eyes.)
I remember having a parakeet that I'd let out of the cage. It'd poop all over the place and never go back into its cage. Stupid bird. If that's a parakeet I'd hate to see a oneakeet.
He may have sworn after I didn't feed him, but if so it must have been under his breath.
Max, are you related in any way to Keith?
I LOVE cockatoos! They are HILARIOUS birds! Awesome photo!!
In Panama Polly wants a patacone pita...pretty please
All I did was take his picture. He's still living the life of a King back at the Panama zoo.
So that's what became of "Fred" (Beretta's bird). I hear parrots can live a really long life.
"Hola!"
Fun shot, too.
;-)
It's okay Mike, I was wearing sunglasses. But thanks for looking out for me.
You know an awful lot about birds, Mike. Or else very little.
This one was pretty funny, Meleah.
Yeah, Fred fared far better than Robert Blake, that's for sure.
They are awesome birds.
They say some crazy shit too.
I love them.
If I was allowed to have a pet in my house, I would TOTALLY get one.
Then what the heck was that thing you were wearing in your hair today?
As I've stated in the comments of my own blog....
It's my friend, Tiffany's, bird. Clementine.
And she is the sweetest little creature.
I don't own a cat OR a bird.
The cat photo I posted belongs to my friend Jennifer.
[Also previously mentioned!]
:)
I was by too early...before you shared the info it was your friend's bird. It seems to like your head, though. That's nice.
Mike isn't looking out for you, he wants to peck your eyes out. Because that's what, um, wait, wires crossed I think.
Since today's theme is "bird" I'm checking each of my regular reading blogs to see if there's a photo of Charlie Parker. No luck yet.
Good one, Frank. Careful, thigh, he may poke your eye out. Or so I'm told.
You know he does seem kinda preoccupied with poking eyes out doesn't he?
:)
I had finger trouble with logging in to make a comment. I'm an idiot.
Still am.
I really, really like this picture, Dufus. He looks like he's being strangled in the fence. :-)
Don't be so hard on yourself, you fool.
Okay. Are you taking your meds?
Thanks, Nicky. Too bad it wasn't one of Nora's cats, eh?
Perhaps Mr Slater's parrot, then: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIGjUf4fppA
That's just mean.
Oh, Nora, I thought you were at the writer's workshop?
