A buddy I have not seen in 25 years had a lesser sulfur crested cockatoo. It was about 8 months old when we were working a construction job in NS. He would allow the bird several drops of Southern Comfort from his little finger after dunking in in his glass.

This bird would always try to climb to the highest point in the room. One day, I went to the aid of a young lady who had a flat tire in front of our cabins at the "hotel" we were at. My drink of SC and orange slices was on a coffee table and guess who got into it!

It was a swanky place and the furniture was top notch. I still remember that bird trying to climb up the Silas (fancy brand name) maple lamp by bringing the Kleenex box over to the lamp to get a leg up. Imagine this bird with one leg on the lamp and one leg on the kleenex box.... and the Kleenex box sliding away from the lamp!!! Doing the splits like a goalie!!! Our laughter was not well received by the cockatoo. When he gave up on that, he climbed Greg, his owner, and, once atop Greg.... yup, he did.
