Whoever had that bird previously for 28 years, really loved him and took very good care of him. This lady is extremely fortunate (and so is Doobie)!

[@secretagent86]

Shows a real lifetime commitment. No doubt they passed away

[@Moonmaedyn]

@@secretagent86 Yes, that was my thoughts as well. Many people don't realize the long life-span of parrots. Once I hit 50 I was hesitant to even get a puppy.

[@batissta44]

@@Moonmaedyn why? dogs don't live long.

[@Moonmaedyn]

@@batissta44 Yeah, I know. Against my better judgment, got one anyway. Two, in fact. They're both 9 now, and love the crap outta them! ♥

[@monkeylol9943]

Who said they took good care of doobie?

[@kumaar1374]

Such a spoiled cutie pie... Love to see this bonding with Momma after spending 28 years with another family.. Surely they knows how to love unconditionallly... ♥️♥️♥️ And his beatboxing is cherry on the top.

Birds have more personality than people realize until they have one and experience it ❤️❤️

[@dekaron12]

That bird has more personality than 80% of my coworkers and me. Don't tell my coworkers I said that.

[@Gonzo_gonzalezbian]

They know so much. Wild birds do. I've interacted with forest Raven all my life, I know when danger is around, the Ravens tell me, and dogs communicate with Ravens

“Mommy’s got to work… make money for pistachios….” 💓. Such a joyous relationship. He is so responsive! Very happy for them both. She must be an amazing hooman for him to like her this much. Best Wishes!

Sigh. That's where so much of my money goes too.

It’s sad that many birds of paradise outlive their owners and are left all alone 😔 thank goodness there are people out there to love and adopt them 🥰

it is not bird of paradise its sulphur crested/ white cockatoo

That wasn't the case with the owner. Also, he's not a bird-of-paradise, he's a cockatoo.

[@Filaxsan]

Making money for pistachios really killed me XD love you guys

[@leeanne1703]

He's adorable! He's so lucky to have such a great new home.

[@TrondBrgeKrokli]

I have gotten so used to cockatoos mimicking human speech and their entertaining moves, but the sounds and head movements from brushing teeth was a new trick to me. Must be the funniest thing I have seen today. Thank you for the chuckles.

[@freddiegillespie_05]

The Doobmeister made a Dodo video? OMG! And they even captured his little wing flaps. He brings joy to *my* life and that's just from following him on Instagram.

[@edwardcapobianco2975]

What a character and such personality. I got a big kick out of him and was laughing throughout the video!! She's so right about even a small creature like a bird can deliver so much joy to one's life!!! Just great to see!!

[@michellelowe7082]

It's so funny seeing a bird with so much personality 🤣

[@coralreef909]

Well this is your introduction to birds of the Parrot 🦜 family. As you are finding out, they are highly intelligent 🤓 and yes full of personality. Over 350 species of which cockatoos are represented with white sometimes pinkish plumage and distinctive crest, make cockatoos unique amongst Other Parrot species. Large Parrots like cockatoos and macaws have very long life expectancies akin to that of humans sometimes outliving their human companions. Their intelligence is estimated to that of a human child of 3-5 years old. Hopefully this inspires you to learn more about these unique and very special birds.

[@michellelowe7082]

@@coralreef909 thank you

[@hopetopper7956]

I adore this relationship! Having a happy bird follow you around while acting goofy is priceless 💖! Everyday must be a joy chilling with a cool 😎 bird who mimicks your funky words. 🦜👏🥰🌍

It’s called a crest. All cockatoo Parrots have them. They express their emotions by raising and lowering their crest when trying to convey the way they are feeling.

Try 90. There's one in Tasmania believed to be over 100

I have a cockatoo that is 34 years old. Looks the same as he did when I brought him home at 4 months. One thing with birds is they don't show age.

[@coralreef909]

Large Parrots like cockatoos have very long life spans, in some cases outliving their human companions. 80- 100 years for some cockatoos,Amazons and macaws. They are a life time commitment, like adopting a human child. They are highly intelligent.

[@oscopin74]

Love it ! Smarter than a lot of "humans" ! True BFF's ! God bless this relationship !

[@coralreef909]

Dr. Irene Pepperberg calls Parrots feathered primates. They are highly intelligent and have great personalities. They require lots of interaction with their human companions as they are very social animals that bond strongly to their human caretakers. Don’t get a Parrot of any kind if you can’t provide this attention. They are a life time commitment.

So wonderful to see that after his first family he has you. They are so much fun and bring such joy. I had 2 a male and female yellow headed Amazon's for a long time. My inlaws were his family but I spent so much time talking to them. They would mock everything you did. And 7 pm everynight they would sing and I'd say nite nite time and for 20 minutes they would sing nite nite and mock me after I covered cage. So amazing to watch and just talk to and see them think is so joyful. Great video and I could see your joy and heart felt words. Hope you two have many many years of adventures..💛💛💛🥰
