Main Harbor Marina issued the following statement.
Main Harbor Marina shares in the outpouring of sympathy at the passing of one of the Reservoir’s most cherished fixtures, “Scuba Steve” Cermak. If you know anything about Scuba Steve, you know that his faithful companion is a cockatoo named Buddy. There has been a huge response from Reservoir officials, Scuba Steve’s friends and other volunteers searching for Buddy.
While several area residents know the story of Buddy, there may be someone out there who has found Buddy in the Reservoir area and does not know his history. Scuba Steve’s family is anxious to have him returned.
Main Harbor Marina would like to publicize the recovery effort around Buddy and would like to offer a $500 reward for information leading to the safe return of Buddy. Main Harbor urges anyone who may have seen Buddy or found him to contact Reservoir Police at 601-992-9894.

Growing up, some friends of mine had a cockatoo that they brought back from Australia. Neat birds and they live a long time. I hope he's OK. If someone's keeping him hidden, they do a lot of loud screeching for various reasons. Should be a dead giveaway for anyone nearby.
Can an ornithologist out there in the Fish's vast, sophisticated readership opine on whether Buddy could possibly still be alive and where he might be?
come the goose season opening on october 1st some rankin county red neck will shoot it and later swear he thought it was a snow goose.
buddy is probably hanging out in main harbor up on top of the long, roofed boat slips with all the seagulls . this is not a joke.......thats prolly where he is.
In Brandon today I saw a woman walking on hwy 80 near the Kia dealership with a white bird on her shoulder. Can’t say I’ve ever seen that. Maybe just be a coinkidink
Didn't know you could shoot snow geese on the reservoir or on any property surrounding it, redneck or not.
I know a blind kid in a wheelchair who could use a new bird after Petey passed away. They make great companions, but you have to support their necks when you hold them, like babies.
7:43 - don't know about shooting those snow geese, but I understand it has been proven that you are not allowed to gas them in an outdoor grill!

There are a lot of predators up there, including eagles.
@9:32 wins. Petey was such a pretty bird.
9:34. The gas grill full of goslings should have been a cover on a cookbook.
Coyote food.
