Quaker parrot Willy whose cries of alarm alerted his owner when a little girl choked on her breakfast has been given the local Red Cross chapter's Animal Lifesaver Award. Willie got his award during a "Breakfast of Champions" event attended by Gov. Bill Ritter and Mayor John Hickenlooper.
In November, Willie's owner, Megan Howard, was baby-sitting for a toddler. Howard left the room and the little girl, Hannah, started to choke on her breakfast.
Willie repeatedly yelled "Mama, baby" and flapped his wings, and Howard returned in time to find the girl already turning blue.
Howard saved Hannah by performing the Heimlich maneuver but said Willie "is the real hero."
