WALKERSTON police are ƒ¢appealingƒ¡ to the public to help solve the mystery of a bird-napping from O¡¦Shea¡¦s Hotel.
Robbo the cockatiel was taken from the front of the manager¡¦s residential unit between 8.05pm and 8.25pm on Tuesday (Boxing Day).
The well-known bird was popular with those who frequented the pub and the owners, who had him for about five months, are ¡§gutted¡¨ by the loss.
¡§I don¡¦t know if we¡¦ll ever see him again, but we just hope someone might have seen something that might help us find him,¡¨ Robbo¡¦s owner Gary Thomas said.
Robbo is distinctive because he is white and grey without any of the yellow or red colouring associated with cockatiels.
The black cage he was kept in was also taken. Robbo is easily identifiable by several tricks his owners taught him.
He knows his own name and ƒ¢oftenƒ¡ says ¡§hello Robbo¡¨ or ¡§good boy Robbo¡¨.
He loves to imitate phones ringing (he usually does four rings before squawking his own answer ¡§hello¡¨) and can whistle the first two lines of the Mexican Hat Dance. ¡§He sings the Melbourne Football Club¡¦s theme song, It¡¦s a grand old flag, too,¡¨ Mr Thomas said.
¡§For anyone who doesn¡¦t follow Aussie rules that won¡¦t mean much, but we¡¦re mad Melbourne footy club fans so we taught it to him.¡¨
Acting Senior Constable Carl Cutler said police were seeking information on any activity or unknown persons in Bold, Dutton or Fadden streets that may lead to the recovery of the bird. Information can be reported to Walkerston police on 4959 2209 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
