Andy has been adopted by the wonderful people of Postal Depot 1 in Victoria! Thank you!

  1. This bird is beutiful… Does Andy have any pirticular need.

  2. Hi Bonnie,

    Andy is sponsored, but we have many other birds needing sponsors. I’ll be posting a bunch of new pictures in the next day or so. We do have a Scarlet Macaw named Scarletta in need of a sponsor, as well as a Blue and Gold Macaw named Snickers.

    Best wishes,
    Jane

    Over the years I have adopted seven other parrots mostly cocatoos and amazons along with a golden mantled rosella, two budgies and three lovebirds. Needless to say my home is a very noisy and busy place. I have a problem that haunts me every day….I’m 50 years old and worry what will happen to my feathered friends when I pass on, I don’t know anyone that I would trust any one of them with. My birds are so spoiled that my home would be a hard one to follow. What can you suggest?
