Who’s a pretty boy? Man cuts off ears to look like bird

A man has undergone surgery to remove both ears in order to look more like his pet parrots.

Ted Richards, 56, who has already had his face and eyeballs tattooed to resemble his birds, had his ears removed in a six-hour operation.

He said: “I’ve done it because I want to look like my parrots as much as possible. I think it looks really great. I love it.
