[G3kkou]

Omg, I've seen this commercial so many times on tv.

Sat tonight and couldn't stop watching videos with dancing parrots and then, tadaaa! xD

"It's a small world" and all that..

[Memmi89]

[strenght755]

[Arcadia117]

love your bird he's adorable xd

[hazunahana70064]

fantastic!

[HappyHippyChick79]

What a sweet bird. And clearly a happy one too. I have seen so many bored cockatoos that pull their feathers out through boredom. It's lovely to see one get all the attention these clever animals deserve.

Well done. xx

[CleanPoison]

oh sweden :P im from sweden... thats insain! :D cool bird!

[mari26angels]

That bird is incredible you are trully lucky to have such a wonderful and talented creature like snowball. When i was little i had two cockatoos but they were stolen... one of my most priced childhood memories. They were the sweetest birds ever. <3

[Pinkantu]

Oo is that snowball??? I didn´t know. He is the cutest bird!

[BirdLoversOnly]

@Pinkantu Yes, it is Snowball. I can't believe that this commercial has been running in Sweden for two years already! Wow!

Irena Schulz - Bird Lovers Only Rescue

[qewinP]

[spyroparty64]

Excuse my manners..... but how is Snowball TM?

[BirdLoversOnly]

Snowball TM is now Snowball with an R and a circle around it. Snowball is not trademarked. Products and services are trademarked under his name.

Strawberries with guaya. Something new with an exotic twist! It's something with the healthsprings in Bergslangen (thats a region).

[MegaDIF]

[kifflee456]

[SparkyParkerBirdston]

Great commercial, Snowball!!

[kifflee456]

the trainer must be super pro at traning birds.

[BirdLoversOnly]

I wish we could take the credit for Snowball's talents, but 100% of the credit goes to Snowball. No one trained him. He just wholeheartedly loves music and this is how he shows it.

Irena Schulz - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[wildnites558]

Oh no, now Snowball's an international star! Will he still remember us little people, will he remember where he came from? ?

[jamiechambliss7944]

[pingu1098]

Cute x 1098! ;)

But seriously, so cutee and talented :)

[snowballfan]

That commercial is awesome! Way to go, Snowball!

[HotsyWater]

the last second made me lol, it wasn't computer generated right?

[BirdLoversOnly]

That was all Snowball. No computer generation at all.

Irena Schulz - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[HotsyWater]

Then.. I've never seen a bird do that at all!!! what a talented bird!

[coryfan209]

can you make a video of Snowball dancing and singing to Three Dog Night? PLEASE????

[tylerdurden4495]

Very cool indeed! I hope you guys bought Snowball a better stereosystem.

[BirdLoversOnly]

We bought Snowball his very own multi-disc CD player so he can listen to all his favorites. Many kind people send CDs for him to dance to, so those CDs go in his CD player as well.

Irena Schulz - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[tylerdurden4495]

Very cool.

[DogInABox666]

Adorable!!!!

[syceramics]

This is awesome!!! Go Snowball. That's one talented "BIG BOY"!!!!

Haha!!

[fireinthetacobell]

Haha! That's great. ^_^

[Gail1970]

Snowball gives all of us Birdie lovers out here a reason to smile! Much like Alex the African Grey was in the front lines showing the intelligence and love that Parrots have, Snowball is a wonderful representative of our beautiful, intelligent feathered friends. My flock applauds Snowball and his rescuers!

[sporny]

Im really happy that you are sharring the joy with the whole world with Snowballs happy feet:) Im actualy from Sweden and must say that the commercial is very huge here! Even my little kid jumps up and down laughing when he sees Snowball's commercial! Thanks you very much and give Snowball a big kiss from Sweden! We love you!

[javahead2000]

Looks like Snowball's got a lot more Swedish fans than me, he he

[jackiemackie97]

OMG

GOOD FOR SNOWBALL!!

now....HES A STAR!

[kirkygirl]

What do you mean he's a star? The silly birdy was already a star! :P Well, he's even more of a star now... :D

[cawigirl]

oh snowball puts a smile on my face and keeps me happy while i'm away from Australia. Seeing him in this commercial reminds me off the wild ones back home. Oh he is a star, so brave, especially meeting letterman.Irene you were so cool with him and his pointy fingers. CONGRATULATIONS on creating the sanctuary. You are an inspiration to me and I long to be involved in rescue when I am one day settled again in Australia.;-) Can you kiss snowball's soft crest for me?

[fromhellithopped]

hahahah so it was snowball!!! i sat watching the commercial at home and though "gee, that has to be that snowballparrot" awesome!!

[RatchetandClankNXTG3]

Snowball is officially the sickest bird on the planet...

[birdgril41]

That made me laugh!!

[Kinkyilu]

LOL! that's great =)

[VValkyrie]

Greetings from New Orleans. Excellent! Hope Snowball was well paid & gets residuals.

[BirdLoversOnly]

We did receive a nice donation to the rescue, but no residuals. That's fine though. We appreciate any and all donations for his "talents."

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[higheyequeues]

That's not fair. They profit from using both his image and his fame (So many people know about Snowball) yet the sanctuary doesn't receive even a couple of cents per sale of product to go towards aiding your efforts? Something very wrong with that picture. Shame on them!

[frotz661]

Yeah... Did they donate anything to your group?

[BirdLoversOnly]

Yes, they did donate.

Irena Schulz - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[blackzip]

lol swedish water commercial very nice

[PringlePoirot]

That is so funny to see Snowball in the Swedish forest.

[tonewinwy]

Cool Snowball has a commercial now.

[lluong6443]

lol thats so cute, the best part is the ending

[punkrock4lifez]

hes so cute :D good luck on his career

[BirdLoversOnly]

Thank you so much for the well wishes!!!

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[Lovizka]

Was this recorded in Sweden?

[BirdLoversOnly]

They came here to film.

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[angelkyros]

yayyyy snowball!

[marendoo]

Haha, super!

[Aishan89]

I live in Sweden, and when I saw this commercial I was thinking: "What? Isn't that SNOWBALL?" ...

Is it Snowball, for real?

Snowball looks so much like our (nowadays dead) cockatoo Charlie. He did the same thing as Snowball!

I just started to laught when I saw Snowball (?) dancing in the commercial. It made me so happy!

[BirdLoversOnly]

Yes, this is really Snowball in the commercial. Snowball was such a ham the day of the filming!!!

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[apanjocko]

Haha, saw this on TV a couple of days ago and was like "What the hell, isnt that that bird, Snowball?" And it was. Really cool.

[littlegalah]

WOW

snowball has a add

[Unit047]

Snowball nailed this ad. :D

[kingconan92]

Atta boy Snowball! :)

They musta done lots of dancing with him to capture his moves being he dances where he wants, when he wants. ;)

[GetGoodGames]

I just saw this commercial and thought this must be snowball from youtube... and i was right :)

[BirdLoversOnly]

Did you see this commercial in Sweden? I know that Loka bottled water is a Swedish product.

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[GetGoodGames]

Yeah i live in sweden Loka is a really famous carbonated mineral watern here. there are very many different commercials like this one. The commercials always includes something weird that happens near the Spring the mineral water comes from, the commercials ends with the text There's something special with the Spring in "Bergslagen".

[BirdLoversOnly]

THANK YOU SO MUCH for replying. I always wondered what was written at the bottom of the screen! That makes this commercial even more adorable!

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[sonicfreak123456789]

snow ball you are a star ; )

[tishatti]

Snowball, you ARE a star!!!:-) xxx

[pattyinla]

oh I LOVE it!!!!

[BellaBear04]

oh I LOVE IT!!!!!!! Snowball is so adorable!!!!!

[thegiverofbreath]

aww that's so cute :P your bird is famous xD

[Maccamare]

Just one question Irena.  is that really Snowball's voice we hear? I kind of thought he was louder than that, . . . in a good way of course . . .LOL

[BirdLoversOnly]

Very good ear! It was a "voice-over". LOL

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[Maccamare]

Funny, now birds do voice-over work . .LOL

Too bad, Snowball sounds too good to be overdubbed, but I guess it went with the whole tone they needed for that commercial. Was Snowball on good behavior, or hasn't mating season come around again yet for him?

[BirdLoversOnly]

Snowball has been great! (Knock on wood) Breeding season seems to begin in November so I'm sure he'll be very hormonal again. I'll have to wear garlic around my neck for a couple of months again. LOL

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[sandyj01]

That commercial didn't do Snowball the justice so well deserved...Great bird deserves a better advertiser!

SandyJ.

[BirdLoversOnly]

It was a twenty second commercial that featured bottled water. We were very happy that they considered Snowball for the job. It was a blast filming the commercial! We're hoping for a Budweiser commercial for the super bowl! :D

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[Maccamare]

You just never know Irena. Get that agent to make some contacts for you or find out who to get in touch with and offer your services. Snowball's "star" is still rising!! HA, maybe one day he'll get to put his claw marks in cement at Grauman's Chinese Theater! Wouldn't THAT be funny?!! . . . LOL ;-)

[suzyhiphop]

God has truly blessed you, Irena!

[BirdLoversOnly]

Yes, He has! And I often wonder why...

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[tikileahsmom]

Very nice commercial Irena! Of course Snowball was perfect as usual. LOL

[Mykai73]

How'd you teach her that?

[BirdLoversOnly]

No one taught Snowball to do any of these dances. All credit goes to Snowball.

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[busybee218]

haha... this is too funny

[aentj]

How awesome - what a great bird!!! I love the ending.

[donadicarlo]

SO, cute and cool I hope it brings lite to those of us who rescue birds. I have one... THey are joy thank you for sharing.I LOVE SNOWBALL!!!

dona diCarlo

[dedicatedtoamazons]

yippeeee Snowball!! Great job!!!

[Mightyshot91]

Snowball is really cool!!

[Maccamare]

WHAT a Howl Irena, LOVE IT!!!! Now if we could just get the big guys in the United States to get him into commercials, you'd have it made!! Snowball may soon be a household name, "everywhere!" You GO SNOWBALL!

I can see it now,"The Snowball School of Dance - for other feathered friends."

XOXO

Love, Auntie M.

[Zivhayr]

Oh NO! Snowball's gone COMMERCIAL!

xD Just kidding...I loved this video :)

[gonnabastar08]

How much did they pay to film ur AWSOME bird, snowball?

[Timo4slash]

I looove snowball

[debcoart]

YAY for Snowball!!! I hope he earned you some money for your organization. Totally adorable.

[BirdLoversOnly]

Yes, he did earn money towards the building fund for the MUCH needed addition.

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[syceramics]

Hi Irena, What a fun commercial! They really did a good job of doing the overlay on this. Made me smile.

Biggest fan from Portland, Oregon.

[BirdLoversOnly]

Snowball is the breadwinner here. All the birds here appreciate his entertaining dancing abilities because of it. But they thank the 'higher powers' most of all for sending Snowball here.

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[Timo4slash]

Dear Irena I am triyng to donate al least a 1000 bucks for school for ur great efforts with the birds. could u please tell me your address thnx

[nameofthepen]

Snowball goes global!!!! Awesome! :D :D

[krystalb2000]

HAHAHA! That's an awesome commercial! Congratulations to you and to Snowball.

Care to share the secret of how it was filmed? Was this something they came out to film Snowball for, or did they use clips of Snowball already available to edit this together? Either way, what a fun commercial!

[BirdLoversOnly]

They came out to film him here. Complete with several 2000 watt lights that kept tripping the circuits here! LOL They filmed him dancing in front of a blue screen and then superimposed him in the commercial. I suppose it would have been more fun to say he was actually dancing in the tree and then walked up to the bottle of Loka water. :D

Irena - Bird Lovers Only Rescue Service, Inc.

[krystalb2000]

Sounds like that must have been a blast (other than the tripping the circuits part).

Snowball gets to dance his heart out, your organization gets some money, and Loka gets to show an awesome commercial... everybody wins! :)

[gesswhoto]

Wow, that's so cool!  We're really happy for you and Snowball!

Salem, Oregon

[PaintedRoadkill]

Oh congradulations!
