Aussie life brought me the most surprising and unexpected situations with the wildlife I have ever faced ^_^ Living in the city center with dozen of crazy, white cockatoo was one of them.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2063\" src=\"https:\/\/keepfit.godziolink.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/2015-10-17_1426261-iq1ha8e4.jpg\" alt=\"OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Let me start from the beginning.<\/p>\n<p>One day I was siting on my terrace eating Sunday breakfast. It was an ordinary morning, like any other at that time. Then, quite a big parrot sat on my table. I saw the cockatoos before in the neighborhood, but not from such a close distance. I need to admit that I was fascinated. I was frozen for a moment, because I didn\u2019t want to frighten the bird. Initially, I didn\u2019t know that they are not afraid of anything. Never. Maybe a lack of food is their worst fear :)<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2061\" src=\"https:\/\/keepfit.godziolink.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/2015-09-20_1313581-iq1ha5zp.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve asked my fianc\u00e9 to make a quick shot, because I was sure that it\u2019s a once in a lifetime opportunity to have a photo with Aussie cockatoo. Well, I was wrong again.<\/p>\n<p>A minute later I had 20 of them sitting all around me, eating my brekky and\u2026 my ponytail as well. The truth is that it was fun. Especially, because I thought that it was a coincidence and I needed to catch the moment. It wasn\u2019t. They\u2019ve stayed for the next few months.<\/p>\n<p>Since that day, every morning I had a wake up call from the cockatoos. They didn\u2019t even beg for any food. They were just sitting on my terrace when I was working so they could be close to me.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2062\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2062\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2062\" src=\"https:\/\/keepfit.godziolink.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/2015-10-12_1439121-iq1ha76l.jpg\" alt=\"My home office ;)\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2062\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My home office ;)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A few weeks from our first meeting, some of them were jumping into my apartment, sitting on the floor or on the chair, as if it was their home.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2067\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2067\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2067\" src=\"https:\/\/keepfit.godziolink.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_42571-kopia-iq1ha3fd.jpg\" alt=\"I could pet some of them and let them sit on my arms.
