The motorist took it to the Vet in Nerang , Queensland , who had to amputate the wing. We adopted her - for which we needed a National Parks and Wildlife permit - and kept her in a cage outside where she was often visited by wild Cockatoos. One of the things that impressed us was how she would push lettuce leaves through the bars of the cage, offering food to visitors.   <BR /><DIV>        Last Sunday 23 July 2006, she again had a visitor.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://geminaigraphics.multiply.com/journal/item/1384"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/geminaigraphics.multiply.com/img/41FE5D29-746C-4557-B4CD-753E65604502" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://geminaigraphics.multiply.com/journal/item/1384">As usual he spent a lot of time sitting on the cage with a tamper proof latch.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://geminaigraphics.multiply.com/journal/item/1384"><div align="center"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/geminaigraphics.multiply.com/img/7CF1025C-C9FC-4DC3-804C-FCCC3A81CF0D" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://geminaigraphics.multiply.com/journal/item/1384">There was a lot of talking and grooming.
