This is a close-up portrait of Maggie, my loving adorable Umbrella Cockatoo. She is all white feathers with a touch of yellow. This shot shows her crown feathers up which she does when she's dancing. The red background makes her intelligent face stand out.

Karen, they are very lovable and talk up a storm. Every day when I get home from work I open the door and hear "hello".

Hi Sharon, Maggie is an Umbrella Cockatoo and she is the love of my life, a close second to my wife. She is very loveable and vocal. It's great to hear a "Hello" when you walk in the door or an "I love you" when she wants attention. She loves to be scratched on her crown or will lift her wings when she wants you to move your attention there. Maggie wants to thank you again for the feature. BTW, I love Hawaii.
