Everyone Please Welcome - Joanie Doss to our "Ask The Experts Staff"

Joanie Doss (Amazon Expert)

Joanie Doss has been writing about parrots and Amazons since 1989. Her articles have appeared in all the leading bird magazines such as Bird Talk, Parrot Talk, Bird World, Caged Bird, The Original Flying Machine, etc. She has many articles on the internet as well. Joanie has a troupe of performing Amazons called The Amazing Amazons. They would do a 45 minute performance and then held by as many as 250 people per bird.

She has two books on body language and is now working on her third. This book will be on training. Birdboard is delighted to add her to our team of experts.

=================================
Introduction


Anyone that knows me, knows of my deep love for Amazon parrots. I feel they are wonderful companions and so often misunderstood. They are smart, beautiful, funny, amusing, charmers, great talkers and singers. What I enjoy most about Amazons is their love of life. Amazons are the "drama queens" of the bird world.

Perhaps this is why so many are fond of opera. Amazons love food and love music. I hope that I can help you have a better relationship with your fantastic Amazon.

Joanie Doss

Joanie:

I was tickled pink when you logged on last night. I still can't believe we've managed to attract the best of the best, the cream of the crop. Thanks again for joining our experts here at Birdboard.

Hi Joanie!!!
How fantastic that you have come to share with us your expertise!
I actually consulted (email) with you over the past few months during the adoption of my 35 yr old Salvin's Red Lored - Ramone. (He's doing great by the way!) Your reponses and eagerness to help was greatly appreciated by this new amazon parront!

Thank you for all that you do - it will certainly be a PLEASURE to have your knowledge and experience a part of this board.

And just holler if there is anything we can do for you too! :icon_smil

Joanie,

As the parront to five Amazons (Blue-Fronted female, DYH male, Tres Marias male and female and Orange Wing/Yellow Crown sex unknown) I am more than excited to have you here. I've visited your website, but it will be more than wonderful to be able to ask specific questions.

WELCOME!

Joanie,
Welcome to the board! I'm SO EXCITED you're here! I've adopted a 22y/o Mealy Amazon back in September....he's been doing really well (until the recent "hormonal" issues). He's my first extended experience with a large bird (I've opened my home temporarily to displaced large birds before) and my first real experience with Amazons.
Thank you for joining us here!!
