Baldwin Park, California’s world famous skateboarding parrot Gordo, has reportedly been stolen from his cage and owner Fred Mirales is distraught, according to a story in the Pasadena Star News.
The bird-napping occurred about 10:30 a.m. Wednesday as Gordo – a green Malaysian parrot from Guatemala – played in his cage on the front porch of his owner’s Bess Street home. . . “My mother was at home and she heard somebody trying to break into the cage,” said Fred Mirales. “When she went out there, the guy was already (running away).” . . .Gordo has become a popular city figure, said Mirales, who has had the 30-year-old parrot for about a decade.
Just one of the downsides of fame, apparently.
