On a photo of 35 year old Moluccan cockatoo named Oscar. To all, Oscar and more "girl" that somewhat enhances the tragedy and so difficult situation. Oscar sheltered in the Company humanists «Broward County» 13 years ago, where the bird, which doctors gave only 6 months of life, found its new home. The reason for this pattern baldness, the disease «Beacon Feather», which is the oppression of avian immunity, as well one of the side effects is the uncontrollable desire to get rid of all bird feathers, which become for her a very large stimulus. Since the disease is contagious, the Oscar deprived of the opportunity to communicate with their own kind, and everything that he remains - is to talk to, have already become his family, people. Lexicon until a bit limited - only two phrases: "Who is handsome?" And "I love you", but considering how Oscar energetic and he fervently chirps, still ahead - good sunny Florida climate is suitable even for very bald birds.
