Who's a clever bird then? Harley the cockatoo filmed taking his owner's washing out of the machine as he helps with their chores

A cockatoo has been recorded doing housework by aiding his master to empty the washing machine. Harley the cockatoo exists in the Netherlands with his master Anja. The 8-year-old cockatoo was taking clothes out of the washing machine because no one else was doing it.


A video recorded last week reveals Harley perched on the rim of the front loader washing machine. The excited cockatoo reaches into the washing machine and utilizes his beak to pluck out the washed clothes. Harley succeeded in getting every piece of clothing out, tossing them exactly onto the floor.
