Fred Bird is no ordinary bird. He's a car-crushing parrot.

Fred, who has been seen in monster truck and family pet shows around the country, will be in Salt Lake City May 17-18 to entertain at the Wasatch Avian Education Society's Caged Bird Show at the State Fairpark Grand Building.Fred loves to ride his specially modified Clodbuster trucks and Nikko jeeps in a funny and entertaining car crushing race.

The Wasatch Avian Education Society is a nonprofit organization committed to the better care and treatment of captive birds. In addition to the entertainment, the bird show will also feature competitions and vendors.
