having a passion for animals as long as i could remember, birds entered my life in my mid teens. what initially started out breeding small birds, turned into rescue and adoption when i realized the shear number of unwanted parrots and birds. i began learning and researching and networking with likeminded people, eventually marrying my love of acting and arts with working with rescued birds. traini

ng a few of the birds in a wide variety of situations, gaining their trust and helping them grow confidence many have become ambassadors of their species, accompanying me to many public events to help educate large numbers of people on the plight of captive and wild parrots. through many venues we have allowed people up close experiences with some of our flock and helped them gain insight and knowledge in the world of parrots. still fine tuning my skills, truly it is the parrots that train me. many of our birds are "lifers" that have difficult histories or behaviours. we do try and place birds to adoptive homes when we can and we are always willing to help, even if we dont have the right answer we will check things out or steer you in the right direction. bird mom, blogger, fighter for animal rights, artist, writer, jack of all trades and master of none ;)

Hey folks!

We are super busy and seriously slacking in the social media department, BUT! We are still here!

For some reason our applications weren't coming through to our email right. So if you've sent one in the last 1 to 2 months please resubmit!

We have a few smaller parrots available for adoption, and are also looking for an experienced applicant(s) interested in large parrots.

Unfortunately we don't have the time right now to answer our messages, but please follow the link to our online application.

We will only contact those we feel fit the needs of the bird(s) we have available, and this isn't always the fault of the person and doesn't mean you will never be approved for another bird down the road ^_^

Also just a friendly reminder that our phone numbers are only for emergencies (to call) but feel free to shoot us an email, PM, or text message and we will do our best to reply as soon as we are able

Our resident nudist Senegal, who up until recently was terrified of everything and everyone.
He still has a long way to go, but we are working on trust building exercises which has made his confidence blossom in all the best ways.
He has zero flights, and no tail which is why he's outside unrestricted

Just in case you didn't know his name 😂

The one, the only...

Blink and it's a mess again 🫠

Calm in the chaos.

Nap time is very important ^_^

Our regular crew that we take to events is accustomed to napping wherever, with whatever is going on

Pretending that this isn't a sad song, you can see the peace and contentment in Sonny's relaxed body 🥰

The highlight of these events for Rocco is the live music 😅

Happy as a bird with a French fry

Someone please answer the Kramer phone

Fun tidbit
Kramer is extremely intelligent
He has learned that when my phone makes sounds I pick it up.
So when he wants to be picked up he 'rings' like a phone.

Pretty neat.

So....
You want a cockatoo....

Sad news in the bird world 🥺

We are super excited to have our rescue invited to the Hope for Wildlife open house.

If you are looking for something fun and educational for the entire family, mark the date on your calendars!

We are looking forward to attending as an exhibitor ^_^

This is a screen shot of this ad.
We have no other information and interested people would need to search for this ad in the group listed.
These birds have been listed before.
There is more information in the actual ad, however we had to blank certain words and numbers out to avoid Facebooks policies on pet s@les.

Doves make amazing companions and unlike parrots do not scream, chew, or bite hard.

It is highly recommended to supply adequate platforms for companion doves and research appropriate diets for optimal health.

As an apology for my previous post.. (😬🤣).. here's a video of Rocco I'd forgotten about. He can't decide whether to eat the banana peel or dance 😅 Seriously though, as long as I'm physically able, running this rescue will always be part of my life, so no need to worry! (But... LOL ;) 😁💕)

Forever dancing. Go Rocco!! Rocco LIVES for festivals. He absolutely loves to be the center of attention

Privateer Parrot Rescue... here for all your pre fireworks needs 😁

These events are always a party for our regular flock members 😃

When Kacey had his stroke and seizures back in January we were expecting the worst. After an emergency trip to Dr. Peacock and weeks of meds, and syringe feedings, Kacey stabilized but was left with mobility issues. We assumed that would be as good as it would get but still kept working with him to strengthen his muscles. Today, 9 months later, Kacey flew and is now climbing around some days with more precision and dexterity than he was upon intake with us. Never give up on them Thank you to all the amazing vets that oversee our rescues 💕

Thats a wrap! Thank you to the folks of Shelburne for the kind hospitality ! We had an awesome time and are happy to have made some more friends. The birds are still energized from the festivities... now to get them settled and off to bed 😂 Until next time! 💕🦜

Kramer likes to get a drink out of the bathroom taps when we go out. This automated one confused him to the point he started getting mad at it 😂

People ask of taking the birds to events stresses them out. We say "Ask Kramer" lol Truthfully, if we feel they are starting to get overwhelmed we take them out of the setting, so it's rarely ever an issue ^_^
