- I saw this cockatoo sitting on a water fountain trying to lick some moisture off, so i went up and asked if he wanted some water.
Exact same spot as this video • Sulfur-Crested Cockato... though they've replaced the tap of the fountain.
0:50 He finally realises that the human was the one who made the water come out. Mind blown.
@Anna K featherleess pink giants lol😂😂😂
air breathing featherless pink giants*
@@ChiquitaSpeaks more like white giants. Number 1 source of terrorism in the Western world.
AyshunPryde yeah but white pink giants always caring about animals
Sometimes I think other animals think we are wizards.
Next bird will...
A.) learn how to turn on the fountain himself
B.) let the humans turn the fountain on anyway because he’s lazy but smart
You 've had a parrot.
There's another video possibly the same bird where he actually gestures at the handle. So I'd say he knows how it works he just don't have the dexterity to work it himself.
th-cam.com/video/82_ZJ1Y4Hhk/w-d-xo.html here's the video Rork310 mentioned, you're welcome
Teach the bird how to turn on the fountain, and you have done a great service to the bird.
Teach the bird to turn it back off after he's finished, and you have done a great service to the planet.
You can see the bird at one moment during the clip look at the woman's hand on the handle and I thought to myself he's watching how she does it, fascinating...
0:49 He's like "Wait, _you_ are doing this? Woah, dude."
One does not simply have 69 likes without saying nice
Why has youtube taken 9 years to show me this ;.;
Exactly :(
Puzzle time!
10 years ;-;
11 years for me
This is the content I want on youtube.
Aww! That was a very thirsty bird! Good for you!
Now this is an example of how to be a good person. Help other creatures get water and be good to them.
@wlad only the male baby chickens, cause the females lay the eggs, and the males are useless for egg production. The female chickens also have larger breasts.
@wlad You're reminding me of the people i'd leave alone on cannibal islands. They may call it work but it's still no less evil.
@@damotoneko1500 then blame the corporation for the politics they have on how they make people work
DA MotoNeko How long and how often is this possible?
Y'all are all crazy
There seems to be an upsurge in wild animals getting people to help them, they kind of know who to "ask".
Perhaps it takes a few generations of wild animals, and the spread of humanity the past century across the globe, for wild animals to realize that most humans sent a threat?
@@checkmate778 yes, that's s good theory, I wonder if there's been any study's. Because if you look at pigeons in city centres they know that people are more a source of food than a danger to the them!
I've noticed this as well.
I'm thinking it's more a rise in people getting it recorded/shown out there. Like, before smartphones made it so easy to record, you either had to have your camcorder on you, let alone OWN one, or just hope your word of mouth will be enough to convince whoever you're telling that a cow asked you for help with its baby. Now that there's plenty of smartphones, it's easy to whip it out to record what's going on now. You know?
@@stephenwedderburn9307 yes I've had to stop snacking downtown while heading home for the day because pigeons would just forget all sense of boudaries when they notice my chips. I dont mind sharing but im afraid of nearly all animals and like 10 pigeons would flock around me pecking at the ground just waiting for me to drop something
Birds are so funny and mostly unnoticed by the average person.
My whole backyard is a series of bird, squirrel and rabbit families that I've come to know over time. The birds are so much fun to watch interact with each other. I've even named many of the regulars. All these little creatures have added so much joy to my family's life.
suggestion for park management: replace the star shaped handle with a lever handle so the birds can step on it in order to get water flow. won't take very long for those feathered geniuses to figure out how to use it.
That was so kind of you!
I'm almost surprised the cockatoo didn't turn on the water himself :)
Those ones are really hard too turn.
I noticed him checking out the guy's hand so he could do it himself next time, but it would be too hard to turn I think. He will have to sit there waiting again.
I think we need to get councils to switch these old ones out to the newer, more accessible ones that just require pushing down on a lever - for humans with disabilities right? ;) Just a co-incidence the cockies will be able to use the more universally accessible ones too :)
This the type of wholesome content I live for
Thank you sooooooooooo much for your kindness!! You a very good person!! Joan
They should put in a Beak Tap for these beautiful creatures!!!
Or just have a Bowl of water 😂
replacing the tap with a universally accessible type push down lever would work just as well :)
Amazing, gosh this clip was taken nine years ago, how time FLIES,...
Precious, sweet bird & kind, loving human.
That’s one thirsty bird
where are you beautiful BEAUTIFUL People in world??? So very kind.
GREAT JOB!!!
Thumbs UP!!!.....Way wayyy UP!!!!!
cringe...

2019: HERES A COCKATOO DRINKING FROM A FOUNTAIN !
Cockatoos are so damn intelligent!
Almost all birds are
Well trained human.
I’m calling it now while it’s at 97k views. TH-cam’s gonna suddenly put this into everyone’s recommended and it’s gonna blow into the millions
Yeah last night it was at 47k so I'm guessing it's gonna blow up
2 years later it's nearly 400k & youtube's trying it again :)
There's nothing better than a well-trained human.
It may have been almost 9 years ago, but thank you regardless for helping them! :D You're a very kind person
thats one luxurious ass pigeon you aussies have over there
Thank you for turning on the water.
He really was looking for a drink.
Also, I wonder how animals are able to detect minute traces of water, knowing there must be a source.
Many animals have a sense of smell far, far greater than ours. Some can smell water from inconceivably great distances.
suzbone I figured. It couldn’t be through sight alone.
I thinks it’s more likely this bird saw someone drink from the fountain so it knows there’s water there and just can’t turn the water on.
Poo0fi I speak of water sources in general, though, not just the fountain.
Bird sees human drink and after seeing 2 or 3 people do it ,the bird understands completely. i have trained Parrots and some can learn a trick by watching me show them how to do it ONCE.....
Plot twist: It was just standing there blanking it’s mind until a human came and disturbed its peaceful meditation with the water fountain. After a moment of awkwardness, the thoughtful cockatoo understood the situation and decided to save the human from embarrassment. What a nice birdie!
Thank you kind human
You did a wonderful thing...god bless you
The video is 8 years old, the bird is now able to turn on the fountain itself
what a darling- he and you both!
Cockatoo: *Holy shit, a real life waterbender!*
That bird was no way gonna go up there. BUT cos you took the time to keep the fountain going it decided hey this guy is cool!
And thus, he made a friend for life.
They really should adapt the design so the birds can give themselves water.
O.m.g. That is soooooooooooooo cute. Thank you for sharing.
They are so clever, he's looking at the tap as if to say make it easy change the design so we can use it
So beautiful. You are very kind
Awe he was so thirsty ❤
They GOTTA find a way to make the thing easy enough for the birds to turn on.
THEY are soooooooo damn smart!!
I want water, I want water, I want water. Man turns on water, (screams) what is that? Jumps away. Typical cockatoo!
@Traci Lay
The cockatoo wisely displayed caution in dealing with an unknown human.
@@moviemad56 yes, that too!
@@moviemad56 hooman*
God Bless you man that was cool!
That look at the end there.. " aah so thsts what you have to pull to get water, I see"
Awww...that was lovely. S/he was quite thirsty too.
tenderheart17 looks like a she to me
@@6l1tch19 looks young to me, but I'm also definitely going to call it a "she", cause most people automatically call animals "he", so we need to balance it :)
Precious!!!
Love the heavy breathing, lol!
yeah...sorry about that. It was quite awkward holding the camera in one hand, trying to reach forward to open the tap, but stay leaning back to keep the camera steady.
Also, I'm a salad dodger.
That's one happy cockatoo!
See there is always someone who wants to help the birdies in cockatoo land.
Aw poor buddy was parched, hopefully he finds a natural water source next time.
why? What's wrong with this water source? The council just need to switch the handle to a universally accessible lever style so the birds can use it too :)
Cockatoo: thanks for letting me borrow your opposable thumbs ;) GREAT VIDEO!
Beautiful fountain and bird
That was awesome of you! She was so thirsty!!
Black eyes male.. brown eyes female...
Thank fuck the top comment isn't some bullshit about TH-cam waiting till 2019 to recommend me this video.
I bet you next time it will open the tap using its beak. They do this all the time in Australia very smart birds they just need to observe one or two times to learn
In Australia these are called « bubblers »
0:50 bird said i finished let turn it off, eh?
Lol the bird is canadian?
Still a better love story than tinder dates. ❤️😂
I was quite sad when he didn't say "thank you, good Sir" before flying off. I love these wild birds
"MMMM, this is convenient. Do you have soda pop?"
This is what TH-cam is about. Not T.V programming that they're jamming into this site in recent years.
he squaw
he fly
but most importantly...
if he want water he wait for the guy
That Cockatoo flew away like I wasn’t expecting that lol.👍😁😎
Exactly correct..
This was so sweet - loved it! I hope that others do that for him in future too, and that noone tries to abuse the trust he's putting in them (by trying to touch the bird or something).
I'd be more worried about people getting bitten by the cockatoo. Have you ever been bitten by one of them? You should watch them eating chicken bones.
@@farmduck2762 No, I haven't been bitten by one, but seeing glossy black cockatoos ripping apart closed pine cones says a bit about how sharp their beaks are, so I can imagine that might be an worry.
When parrots will rule the World, he will remind you and give you water...
10 years later
Haha, the bird after drinking water looks like “please turn water off “, iam done with drinking 😊
awwww poor thing was soooo thirsty!!!! thank you :D
Next thing you know, Cockatoos will learn how conversation works instead of just mimicking words like any other Animal Cry.
He’s like, oh you are helping me, at first I thought you were a Foe!
WHO'S A GOOD BIRD. GOOD BIRDY. CLEVER BIRDY :D
this is so wholesome i love it
Any snacks? Right, cheers, I'm off.
Such a cutie 🥰🥰🥰
Notice the tree wrapped with some kind of netting? Many orchard farmers wrap tree trunks with things like flat aluminum sheeting, usually to prevent forest rats from climbing up where the fruits are. I’m not sure what this would be for.
for possums if the tree is being inundated & needs a break, so that it can grow again (possums like the fresh, new shoots).
So amazing how he then.... studies your hand.... to see.... 'How they hell did he turn this thing on.... I need to know this for later.....' SO SMART!!
Australia, right? He said thank you at the end :-)
This is the cutest thing. It looked like the birdie was trying ti figure out how to turn it on.
He knew how to do it, but was not strong enough to do it....
That was one thirsty bird!
CLICKBAIT! That was a cockathree.
i’m getting so many birds on my recommendation but i’m not complaining 🥰
Here I am stupid thinking a man was out walking and watering his cockatoo
Man terrorizes cockatoo with water.
Sweet Bird
They should have a bowl at the bottom that collects the run off water,and animals can drink out of them when they need too.
They have that here where I live in QLD.:)
how do you manage the mozzies from that?
What a good boy!!
my dumb self forgot birds need water. lol
What spring is your spirit waiting to partake from?
Too cute!!!!! Smart bird
Your bird acts like a human because he's drinking from a fountain that is made for humans to drink from. That's pretty cool! Thanks for sharing your video with us. I subscribed to your channel just now. Thanks. Keep up the good work. I'll keep watching.
thats a wild one
Precious❣
Thisis the coolest vid ever
Very smart bird. He should know how to drink the water next time after watching you did that.
Seems like wild cockatoos are a lot more sane than 'tame' ones.
because people have no idea what parrots need and make them frustrated
@@nightmarecreature4489 yup exactly! Parrots need HUGE amounts of stimulation! Very few get it in captivity, in the wild, they can do the same stuff they do in captivity when humans are willing & the rest of the time, they can find their own entertainment, instead of being locked in a tiny cage with nothing to do but scream & bite
@@mehere8038 exactly what i had on mind but i cant put shit into words lol
@@nightmarecreature4489 what you said made perfect sense to me :) I'm guessing we're both parrot owners aren't we? I've got years of wildlife rescue experience, but new to pet ones, with 2 rescue lorikeets I got at the beginning of this year. Since getting them I've learnt a LOT & learnt to pick fellow parrot owners too :) & also kinda been shocked at how little so many know about parrot needs (which would be fine, IF parrots weren't so easy for them to purchase)
how careful he is
very thirsty birb
God bless you.
This made me happy :)
