We're reinventing the way you think about birds.
To be an active flock member all you have to do is visit often to take in our parrot knowledge and share yours. It's that easy.
Spreading the message on how to love, empathize, and care for your feathered friends.
Through communication and sharing our birds will lead happier lives.

Chaos is a perception not properly appreciated to my way of thinking.
Having someone tell you a parrot is loud, messy and expensive is helpful, but it comes as close to explaining a parrot as the word wet explains water. It's deeper and wider than one can imagine, and to sincerely know it is to live it.
Watching a parrot go through a molt yields feathers to collect, and a bit of wonderment. Because watching a feather fall, and it's replacement grow in is literal magic.
I'm retired and live in an assisted living facility, and one of my neighbors took in a blue & gold macaw named Thor. His previous companion had to move to the V.A. Hospital due to deteriorating health. Thor and his previous owner (not quite Thor's "companion") had lived here for over a year down the hall from me. I heard a lot of "Shut up, Thor!!!" from his room. For about a month, Thor was alone mostly, and got quite loud and cantankerous, getting a few minutes of companionship per day until my neighbor stepped in and took Thor in. Both Thor and his new owner, Bill, went under a beautiful transformation! Before, Thor was more pale turquoise & a pale pink color until he got companionship & a better diet than sunflower seeds. Within days, Thor was bright blue and a brilliant yellow, and his attitude was sooooooo much better!!! Bill got a companion, and has that special someone in his life again. As Bill uses a mobility scooter to get around, he started taking Thor on rides around the neighborhood. Thor cackles and laughs as they cruise out of the front door. If nothing else, since Bill doesn't do computers, tablets or smart phones, I might be able to turn him onto some good advice & insights from here. Thyank you for being here!
