Nickey
Nickey is All Creatures' resident Umbrella Cockatoo. She was hatched in 1989 and abandoned by her original owners. She came to us looking like a plucked chicken. With all the attention she gets here, and her improved diet she has expanded her vocabulary to include:

"Hi Nickey, here kitty, kitty, kitty, goodbye, good night, hello, I love you, poor Nickey," AND she barks and cries like a dog!

Nickey enjoys her tropical showers, nuts, green foods, and bananas. When not talking or begging for attention, she plays with her many toys.
