Poor Marc.. i hope his parrot thats on TV with him all the time wasnt the one that he was talking about when he said 'his favorite birds'
45 parrots pilfered from Long Island pet shop; police perplexed
ROCKVILLE CENTRE, N.Y. - Polly doesn't want a cracker. Polly wants a rescue _ after she and 44 other parrots worth more than $1,000 each were abducted from a pet store on Tuesday.
The thief was an early bird, police said, breaking a back window of the Parrots of the World shop between 4 a.m. and 6 a.m., before the owner showed up.
The 45 stolen parrots were worth about $58,000, said Nassau County police, who didn't know how the crook got away.
The store's owner, Marc Morrone, said whoever ripped him off knew where the surveillance cameras were, unhooked the cages and carried them out through the big hole in the window. He said he didn't immediately notice that one of his favorite birds was among the missing.
'I was cutting up papayas for him, and I went to feed him,' Morrone said, 'and the cage was empty.'

oh no ...thats right in my neck of the woods. Thats so awful!! He cares about those birds so much its such a shame that those animals will be in the hands of someone who most likely doesn't care and doesn't know a thing about them except their worth
