Parrot on Crutches Wins Portland Shipboard Fame
An American ship arriving in Portland Oregon hosts a young parrot hobbling on crutches. A storm damaged its cage three years ago, breaking the lees from a wire. The captain carved two crutches, bound them to the limbs, and the bird learned to walk while guarding balance. Appetite is fine and health fair to middling.
