Watch: Cheeky cockatoo sends flowerpots flying from unlucky Melbourne apartment
People wandering through Melbourne's CBD have been left stunned after witnessing a cheeky cockatoo throw a huge tantrum on one unlucky balcony.
At first glance, you'd be forgiven for assuming the flowerpots being flung from the Flinders Street complex earlier this week was the work of a jilted ex-lover.
But after a closer look, a feathered offender - seemingly with its own vendetta - can be spotted pushing the plants, one by one, from above.

The video has amassed more than one million views on TikTok and tens of thousands of likes on Instagram.
