HILLSBORO, ORE. — This certainly isn’t something you see every day – a police mug shot with a big red bird.

Craig Buckner was booked in to the Washington County, Oregon Jail on a charge of violating the terms of a previous release.

Buckner’s macaw, appropriately named “Bird,” came to the courthouse, but was forced to wait outside during a hearing.

After the hearing completed and while Buckner was being booked, he became concerned about his bird that was waiting outside in a tree.

A deputy allowed the bird to come inside during the booking procedure.

As you can see, the pair even appeared in front of the camera.

A friend of the deputy has agreed to care for Bird while Buckner is serving his sentence.
