A Place To Land

Some people may find the scenes in this film upsetting or disturbing. Please keep this in mind before viewing.

This is a MUST SEE video. Its a short film lasting around 30 minutes about Parrots in captivity and the perils they face.

So sad. I wish we could do better for them. Parrots will always be in our lives. We as owners provide the best homes we can. Granted huge flight aviaries would be the best for these gorgeous birds. Not all of us are able to provide this. All we, as current parrot owners can do, is provide foraging, out of cage play, free flight, oodles of toys and the best diets we can offer. Rescuing those in need is our greatest deed.
