Bo
Umbrella Cockatoo
Current Status: Adoptable (but currently being visited!)
Hatch Date: 2008
Sex: Male
Bo is lovingly sponsored by Signature Aviation.
Likes:
Helping out with morning cleaning by mimicking the sound of a spray bottle
Making up songs (they usually go something like “Hi Bo, hi Bo, hi Bo…”)
Laughing like a kookaburra!
Dislikes:
Interruptions to his busy schedule
Bo first came to Free Flight as a long-term boarder, but became a resident when his owner’s plans to bring him overseas when they moved unexpectedly didn’t go to plan. He’s a sweet fella, with a huge smile (seriously, we don’t know any other cockatoo who can open their mouth so wide!), and he has a genuine love for children’s songs. Bo is happiest when young children sing “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” to him…. but, if there’s no one around to provide the tunes, he’s willing to step up and serenade the room! He makes up the cutest little melodies!
Bo will do best in a home where he can laugh, sing, and (occasionally) scream to his heart’s content. He’d love the opportunity to visit with young children, but must have adult caretakers with previous cockatoo experience.
