Snowball the Cockatoo – Bigger than the Backstreet Boys

The video of this sulphur-crested Eleanora cockatoo named Snowball living at the Bird Lovers Only Rescue in Schererville, Indiana has become an Internet sensation. Eleven-year-old Snowball loves the Backstreet Boys and has taught himself to dance to their song "Everybody."

He then bows when he's finished.

Snowball was given to the bird rescue shelter a few months ago — dropped off with a Backstreet Boys CD.

"I'm thinking, `What on Earth is this? This is unreal,'" said Irena Schulz, who runs Bird Lovers Only Rescue with her husband, Chuck.

The couple has more than 30 birds in their home with many available for adoption. "He makes a great spokesbird for the rescue," Chuck Schulz told the Associated Press.

However, Snowball is not up for adoption. "He's my baby," Irena Schulz said. "He will stay here and be loved."
