I can't think of any where in Canada that would be considered tropical. If we had to ship, then we would get into international shipping laws.... LOL

Droynon

There are some great rescues here in BC, greyhaven is one that comes to mind. index perhaps you could contact them, let them know you are available in the north. They can get extremely over crowded at time themselves. My niece just shut hers down in Chilliwack due to personal trauma. (Not enough people with the time or facilities to step up and take over)

So only people who live in warmer or tropical places can truly provide the best home for birds? I'm not at all trying to start anything but that way your message is worded...it sounds that way...it's kind of offending. =S

Jade, you're right. i was thinking the same thing. There's nowhere "tropical" in Canada - so, what? we shouldn't have birds?
