Umbrella Cockatoo

Umbrellas are among the larger cockatoos. They are sexually dimorphic, the females being discernable from the males by their rust-brown eyes. They are also one of the most popular birds in the pet industry.

Famous Cockatoos

Remember that TV show Baretta? That show had an Eleonora Cockatoo (that's one in the Sulfur-Crested family). I never saw it, but a lot of people remember the bird. You can find pictures of the main character with the bird on eBay.

A few years ago, Maxell (I think) had a commercial for either it's mini-disc system or else it's CD recorder, featuring a head-boppin' sulfur-crested Cockatoo.
