This
gorgeous bird came to me on Christmas Day two years ago so I
named him Chris. He is a flight bird because I dread to sacrifice
his spectacular golden feathers hidden beneath his ivory white
coat. Chris is incredibly mischievous and curious yet at the
same time extremely tame and tolerant. Not only is he a good
buddy to me but also great with children. And he is not afraid
of strangers at all. In fact, he likes to show off with his
delightful little dance to the audience.
Chris is not as vocal compared to most cockatoos. However, he
always says hello repeatedly and clearly to plead for attention.
And often, he loves a good scratch underneath his wings. He also
gets great pleasure from having his head caressed and that makes
him looks so lovable. Everyone just goes "Ah" whenever he does
that. Chris loves standing on my shoulders and wants to
participate in everything I do. His busybody personality makes
him an adorable little clown. Believes it or not, he actually
likes the taste of hot chilli peppers. In addition, Chris likes a
bite of nectar of orchids. Living in Malaysia, Chris acquires
the taste of a rambutan, a local fruit, which flavour and texture
are the reminiscences of a fresh sweet lychee. The one comical
practice he has is to dump the food bowl after he finishes his
meals. It is as though he is announcing that he's accomplished
something great!
