Just the other day I was writing about Bengalis and their penchant for keeping exotic birds and how the practice was dwindled somewhat in recent times . But when I happened to chance across this modern tiny cafe 'chicklick' , a stones throw away from Lake Mall , I was proved wrong by seeing this very friendly Kakatua (Sulphur crested Cockatoo) happily perched on his stand .
There are still numerous bird enthusiasts hidden in nooks and corners of this old city ..... of whom we do not keep any notice .

There are several 'exotic' bird shows in winter around Kolkata. I have been to the Kasba one. Most of the time the birds are pets of individual owners. But the way the birds are shown are very upsetting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONqy3gONYus
