My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Ello! My Name is Duster and I am an 88 year old Umbrella Cockatoo. I originally came from Australia and I have done some serious flying - ok well, I was flying in a plane. Coming to the United States I started out on the California coast taking up residency at Sea world where I became an Ambassador for Cockatoos, educating people about my breed. I eventually moved to the sunshine state where I was living in Weeki Wachee with the mermaids, wow were those sheilas beautiful! I eventually ended up in the Ocala area and then moved to St Petersburg where I currently reside with my foster mom and a goofy conure. I love to hang outside and enjoy the warm Florida sunshine. My foster mom makes me all kinds of cool toys from wood and other things that I can tear up with my beak to keep me busy - she calls me Duster Bunny, but I have heard her refer to me as a can opener with feathers. I like to chew up wood, and newspaper toilet paper rolls, and she makes me these really cool toys with dried corn husks with treats of almonds in them - they are a lot of fun to tear up. I love fruits and veggies, as well as eating my pellet mix with some seed (my foster Mom is trying to get my off seed). I am looking for my forever home and while I me be an older bloke, I still have lots of love to give you!
