Besides being our God Emperor, Sirocco is "the champion bird for the New Zealand Kākāpō Recovery programme."
The kakapo (Māori: kākāpō or "night parrot"), is a species of large, flightless, nocturnal, ground-dwelling parrot endemic to New Zealand.
As of 2016, there are only 154 living Kākāpō in the world, all of which have names, and all living on three closely monitored, predator free islands around New Zealand.

Thank you u/Poisoned_Artist for the reference pictures!! 🦜🦜
I can’t believe he’s already 20 years old! It’s been such a wonderful life with him.
Progress, second clip he starts having a conversation with himself 😂
I do usually talk to him / have full conversations with him; but felt weird doing so on video. He is in his cage because Vinny and Lokie are out and he cannot be trusted to not fly claws first into Vinny, out of jealousy. He's done it before. He will do it again. So we just juggle birds. He gets a couple of hours out in the morning, then the big birds come out for a few hous, then he gets a few more hours while I sit in the evenings. He is a plucker. He has been for over 14 years. My vet believes its habitual behaviour.
This is Comet. He is very vocal. He knows a few words and peek a boo was his first.
