      Well then I guess I relate with Polly even harder.

      That being said, no worries to be had here. Birds not dead as bird wasn’t real. Not fully anyway. It’s from that godawful Sandler movie, Jack and Jill. The movie has a real bird but for this shot they put it in the fountain using CGI.

      Polly safe. All good.

        Looks like a sulfur crested cockatoo. The CGI sells it because this is the kind of shit they would do.

        Plenty of videos showing their real life shenanigans. (E.g. “cockatoo eating croissant” or “cockatoo opening bin”).

        I love them, but Jesus they can be a pain in the arse sometimes.
