Okay, first the bins, now drinking fountains?! I'm genuinely starting to wonder what human contraption these feathered overlords will conquer next, and I get a slight 'planet of the apes... but with cockatoos' vibe.

A remake of Hitchcock's The Birds, but with cockatoos would be epic.

During our extended Melbourne lockdowns in 2020-1, the amount of cockys hanging around due to the relative lack of cars and people truly was epic. Out walking within my prescribed 5km radius the thought that I was in a Hitchcock movie did pass through my mind more than once.
