Summary
NoS Summary - a glimpse at the cockatoo singly and en masse.
Pathe Intertitles - "The cockatoo is a humble citizen in his native South American jungle, but promoted to the position of Pet - he’s a picture of arrogant pride." "He takes a lively interest in everybody and everything -". "The wise housewife gives him something to peck at - this may prevent him eating the furniture!". "One cockatoo is enough for a rational family - but all cockatoo-fanciers are not rational!".
