Big Bird also stopped by "CBS This Morning" with some advice.

"Even though things are a little different right now, we are all in this together and it is important to help out and to be kind. We can lend a hand or a wing in my case and we can help each other," Big Bird said. "You can send someone a virtual hug, how about that?"
