A parrot causing a city battle?
Posted by evdomada on December 11, 2007
Can you imagine a parrot in Greece making the international news?
Well it’s a fact that Coco the 18-year old parrot has made the international news over a dispute with the city council of Patra. The issue is that Coco is perched on a footpath by his owner and the council is claiming that the placement of the parrot is obstructing drivers from being able to park their car.
Antenna News also had covered the story some time last week but now it’s a news story on the BBC.
As the story points out, the deputy mayor of Patra would prefer if the city made international news for a more worthwhile reason.
