Daisy was having a nap but she woke up long enough to show off her feathers. Her recovery has been dramatic. She now seems quite at home with her new friends and surroundings. She’s a wonderful bird.

When the day comes for Daisy to join the main flock I’ll record her progress – but that won’t be for many weeks yet. Wendy encourages new birds to form mini-flocks while they recover their health and adapt to a new home. Later, when they’re ready, she moves them as a group into the main compound. Parrots have a complex social life and they need time to work out new relationships – a lot like people.
