Casper ~ the Sulphur Crested Cockatoo

Not an everyday sight on the streets of a major city; however, we met a man who was walking around his neighborhood in San Francisco with this lovely Cockatoo!
Being a bird lover, I couldn't resist to ask him if I could hold the bird!
Casper readily jumped upon my arms not once, but twice! :)
Such a sweet and wonderful bird, and extremely calm and well trained!
