Jasper Doest's Image
Sitting in Odette’s lap as she travels to promote FDOC, Bob observes island life through the car windscreen.
During his rehabilitation Odette discovered that Bob had foraged for food at a local aquarium, becoming accustomed to humans. His chances of survival in the wild are therefore slim. Instead he gets to travel in style as an avian ambassador.
