This pet parrot waited for his human to come home and then the cockatoo went completely crazy when
Ani the cockatoos daddy came home
The bird was instantly alert
It was unclear how but he knew his human was outside somewhere
Ina had been waiting for this moment all day and as his daddy approached the cockatoo Unleashed his pent-up energy
The bird in question is Ani a young Umbrella Cockatoo that lives with his family in Hickson
Tennessee among his people are as human daddy his mommy Rebecca stout and his human sibling Shawn stop
Needless to say there are a family of animal lovers
That's evident because Annie isn't the stouts first pet or their only bird in addition to the cockatoo
They've also loaned a cockatiel named Sonny they even cared for ferrets in the past including a very special one called rocky
Rocky helped Shawn stout cope with his autism and thus the family discovered just how therapeutic pets can be in
Addition Rebecca stout found that the internet loves watching videos of our animals antics
Recently Ani is the household social media, darling
Anees breed which are also known simply as white cockatoos actually originated in Indonesia
Furthermore according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature they're endangered in the wild
That's primarily a consequence of deforestation and people catching them for use as pets
Indeed the stouts are all too aware of the plight of cockatoos as a result Rebecca issued a statement on our YouTube page
She wrote make sure that if you get a pet bird, they're captive bred or from a shelter
Annie's a prime example of why cockatoos are a popular pet though
they're beautiful birds just like the parrots that they're related to umbrella cockatoos are capable of mimicking human speech but their most
Distinguishing physical characteristic is their crest
cockatoos possess a crown of head feathers that they can consciously lift or lower to communicate not
Only our crests used to talk to other cockatoos
But they make the birds look bigger when raised it's a defense mechanism that the cockatoos employ to scare potential threats
But on EA's little fear of threats in his loving home instead, his nature is true to his name on Rebecca stouts YouTube channel
She reveals Ani as a meaning in another language
Ani means luck and happiness and finish she wrote and that sure is what he brings to this world if
Stouts YouTube channel is anything to go by that statement is definitely true
Take the video Stout uploaded on April 22nd 2018
For example, it shows Anees reaction when his daddy comes home from work
And it couldn't be more heart melting the video begins with Annie sitting on the windowsill watching something in the distance
Suddenly, he starts pacing the ledge and squawking at the top of his voice. It's the moment that Annie has been waiting for all day

But Annie can't stand to wait for his human to come through the door
He flies over to the couch as an off-camera stout talks to him
Where's daddy stout shouts to honey as he flies over to watch the door, but the cockatoos gone the wrong way
Daddy's looking through the window for his feather baby. He's over here stout. Laughs remarkably on he even joins in with her giggling
Stout encourages Ani to perch on her hand then takes him over to the window to see his daddy
When Annie sees him the cockatoo starts shouting again as though he's trying to get his humans attention
He succeeds - daddy heads for the front door
Hello, buddy, aunty shouts flying across the couch and running along it again. He knows his best friend's arriving at any minute, but when
Stout asks honey. Where is he and the cockatoo dashes to the top of the stairs to wait?

Where's my buddy on his human shouts opening the door the cockatoo couldn't be happier to see him on
