What's the best book about zons and how to care for them?

Can't really help you but I do know that I want to read _The Parrot Who Owns Me_ or similar to that anyway. But it's a non-fiction story not a care book.

A couple of good books on understanding zons are book 1 & 2 by Joanie Doss entitled "Can you speak parrot". They are about body language of zons, and zons show you a lot from their body language. A video by Steve Martin, "Parrot care and training", gives a lot of basics, and foundation for positive re-inforcement. A nice link for books is: http://www.avianpublications.com/ and most books on general parrot care are o-k. Amazon specific books are good as there are a few things different such as Amazons don't have preening glands, so need showers more often.

Nope, that would be Joanie Doss, who is truly an expert on Amazons and has years and years of experience in training and working with them.
