OSCAR THE BALD PARROT

oscar-the-bald-parrot

No one will be asking Oscar the Moluccan cockatoo the “who’s a pretty boy then?” — especially after laying eyes on this sad looking bird.

Sporting only four plumes of feathers, Oscar, who is in fact a girl, seems oblivious to her almost complete baldness.

Pushing on in years, at least the 35-year-old feather challenged bird lives in the sunny climes of Florida, where the temperature is forgiving.

Oscar lives with Cherie Wachter, at the Humane Society of Broward County and she has become a fixture in the reception area over the past 13 years.

    Oscar,

    Heard a little bit of your story up here in Illinois, on the news yesterday morning, and heard that you’ve found a wonderful “forever” home. We couldng be happier for you. You are a beautiful little girl and our “flock” is very excited that you’re safe and happy.
