Move over, cover models — Julius the umbrella cockatoo is here, and he’s flaunting every feather like he owns the runway.

If you’ve ever met Julius, you know he’s not shy. With a plume of snowy white feathers, a regal crest that demands attention, and an attitude that screams “yes, I am the main character,” Julius doesn’t just walk into a room — he glides. We caught him today perched proudly on his stand, gazing into the mirror like it owed him money. With one foot lifted and head tilted just so, Julius gave himself an approving nod before letting out a satisfied chirp. It was as if to say, “Yeah. I’d preen me, too.”

But behind the charm and good looks is a bird who knows how to work a room — whether he’s mimicking laughter, showing off his wingspan, or posing like he’s waiting for a camera flash. You can try to ignore him, but you’ll feel those beady little eyes watching, silently judging your fashion sense. Julius has perfected the art of the humble brag. He doesn’t need validation — he is the validation. And honestly? We’re just grateful to bask in the presence of greatness.

So, here’s to Julius: the bird, the myth, the legend. Handsome? Yes. And he knows it.

PS: If he starts asking for a modeling agent, don’t say we didn’t warn you.
