Angry Cockatoo Destroys the Bird Spikes Stopping Him from Sitting Exactly Where He Wants To

No one likes to be told what to do, and if you know anything about birds, you probably know this goes double for our feathered friends.

Australian Isaac Sherring-Tito saw this truth on full display as he walked down a Katoomba street one day, only to be accosted by pieces of a spiky, anti-bird system falling from the sky.

He looked up to see a pissy cockatoo ripping out the spikes meant to keep him off the ledge, then dropping them over the edge, one section at a time.

Damn the man.

Cockatoos are native to the area and can live up to 60 years, with the oldest known one, a bird called Cookie, making it to the ripe old age of 83.

Presumably because they’re full of piss and vinegar and give death – and bird spikes – the finger.

Because they have two toes on each foot that point backward, they’re able to use their feet like hands. That, combined with some clever and determined beak-usage, allowed this Aussie bird to dismantle the contraption his human enemies though would keep him down.

It turns out that this particular bird is well-known in the area, too – and not just for smashing the human-archy.

The gig is up, little bird.

Punks everywhere salute you, though.
