Occurred on July 17, 2019 / Geelong, Victoria, Australia
Info from Licensor: "I was waiting to go into a Café for lunch, I was early and waiting for my husband while sitting in my car. I heard bird footsteps on my car and thought nothing of it until the bird was on my bonnet. I then talked to it through the window, got out and tried to see how close I could get to it. It then landed on my shoulder and proceeded to try to get my earrings and other piercings. It succeeded in getting one earring and chewing it up. I hopped back in my car and the cockatoo came back and I started filming it thinking that no one would believe me if I told them what happened. I have since found out the cockatoo is named Charlie and is a local. He has quite the personality and is somewhat infamous in the local area."
