Today is International Parrot Crisis Awareness Day! (Pls share!)
Baby parrots are cute, cuddly, and needy. When they hit maturity, they become loud, rebellious, bitey, and they often make their problem your problem. Basically, they act like the wild animals that they are.  Many don't realize they are not domesticated over 1000s of years like cats and dogs, but only 1 or 2 generations from the wild. They're not so different than having a pet monkey.
Sadly, when birds hit the avian version of "puberty" this is when many birds are surrendered, rehomed, or worse. (I've seen worse and it's incredibly sad). This cycle can repeat for 20-80 years, leaving birds emotionally traumatized.
Instead of buying, adopt! Every parrot has a unique personality that can literally change with the seasons. Special needs birds, in particular, can be incredible companions with the right person. I’ve had many, and helping them thrive is so rewarding!

My friend is the only person I know who can accidentally adopt a quail
He named it Nugget. He roams the house.

My dear friend and owner of Jabber the starling lost her Sweet Jabby Angel today. Despite aggressive treatment he was sadly unable to recover from his respiratory infection and passed away peacefully in her arms.
In January, I pet sit both of her starlings Jabber and Juice at my home. Jabber was such a sweet bird, completely unafraid of me, and he wanted to hang around on my shoulder the whole week he was with me.
If anyone is inclined she would greatly appreciate some memorial art of dear Jabber to commemorate his life. Please tag me in it or message it to me and I will pass it along to her.
