Today when we went for our walk, we saw a bird walking on the foot path, it looked lost. It was a beautiful looking bird, it was white with pink on the front of it's body. We were sure it was someone's pet. The turned out it was a Lutino rose-breasted cockatoo.
It was heading our direction and then starting turning towards the busy main road. We didn't want it to get hurt so Mummy and I tried to stand in front of it's way so it wouldn't walk onto the road.
Mummy was too scared to pick it up so we called Mum to come help us. Mum came and pick up the bird and held it while Mummy rang the SPCA.
Unfortunately there were no answer at the SPCA, so Mummy then tried calling the Council. The Council couldn't help us.
Our neighbour also said to post a photo of the bird on the Facebook Mt Roskill Community page. Sure enough we heard from the owner. It belongs to a little girl. Apparently it's been lost for 2 days.
We sat in our car and gave it water while we were waiting for the owner to come pick it up.
We were so happy we found the Cockatoo's owner.
