Parrots At Play Calender Photo contest

The photo contest for the 2009 Parrots At Play Calender began Feb 1st and will run until Jun 30th. It is open to all bird lovers. Because I have seen so many beautiful pictures our members have posted, I would love you all to be part of this program.

Click here for contest rules Welcome to Parrots At Play Calendar Program



The mission of our calendar program is to raise funds to help birds and supports many non-profit avian organizations who provide education, rescue and adoption services, sanctuary, or conservation efforts.



HOW OUR CALENDAR HELPS BIRDS

There are many non-profit avian organizations around the country that are working hard to help birds; whether through education, rescue and adoption services, or conservation. The Parrots At Play Calendar is designed to help. All net proceeds from calendar sales are donated to non-profit avian organizations. The calendar sells for $15 and $10 of the purchase price is donated to help a bird. You can help by simply buying a calendar! You can even specify which participating non-profit avian organization you would like to make a donation to!

The calendar is a wall calendar 17 inches high x 11 inches wide and is printed on high quality paper on a four-color printing press. The artwork is colorful and vibrant. Please see our features pages for more detailed information on the calendar. It's a calendar that any animal lover will enjoy!


"Like humans, all pet birds are not "perfect". We believe that rescue birds are even more special and beautiful than most, and they deserve our best efforts to give them a better life. Our annual calendar is dedicated to these special pet birds, and to the compassionate humans that give the time, effort and resources to help "rescue" them and provide these wonderful creatures a better future. "

Frank Carson
Director, Parrots At Play Corporation



Thanks so much to everyone last year that submitted an entry for the photo contest. It is very difficult to select only 12 out of the 89 entries received.



The 2008 Parrots At Play Calendar is still available!

I hope to see many of you involved in 2009!
Lisa B~ VP and Director, Parrots At Play Corporation

YAY! I think I'll give it a go... Ash lying on her back playing with her ball maybe? Or hanging from some native flowers... Or holding the budgie still in one foot and lovingly preening his head! So many ideas so little time!!! This is exciting!!!
