Pycnonotus jocosus
"The Red-whiskered Bulbul (Pycnonotus jocosus) is a passerine bird found in Asia. It is a member of the bulbul family. It is a resident frugivore found mainly in tropical Asia. It has been introduced in many tropical areas of the world where populations have established themselves. It feeds on fruits and small insects and they conspicuously perch on trees and their calls are a loud three or four note call. The distinctive crest and the red-vent and whiskers makes them easy to identify. They are very common in hill forests and urban gardens within its range." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red-whisker...

Yeah maybe. That's a really nice thought Kerry Hawkins.
Bulbuls always make me think they have a mohawk hairstyle. Maybe thats where the hairdressers got the idea.
