One thing I discovered about having a lot of birds and an outside aviary, was exotic birds that have escaped from their owners, find you.

I just got two pictures of Sadie from her new human. He said Sadie's favorite place is on his lap under a blanket. The pictures are fantastic. This is what cockatoo lovers all say about their birds. They are cuddly and sweet. The picture of Sadie upside down on Ed's lap is just funny.
Thanks for sending the note and pictures, Ed. This is why I take in these birds. They move from a situation with negatives to a wonderful long term home, whether they are re-homed or stay here with me.

This is a four year old blue and gold macaw, named Freddie. Freddie is the victim of divorce. He was just too big to be trusted in with any other birds. Initially he was shy and refused to leave his cage. Then the right person came along and it was love at first sight. Freddie was re-homed with a family that has pre teen boys to play with. Freddie also has a perch in the mom's truck so he can travel and see everything that is going on. Absolutely a match made in heaven.

I just re-homed Sadie with a wonderful family in Lake Charles Louisiana. I packed up Sadie in a medium dog transport kennel, with food, water and her teddy bear. Sadie is three, cuddly and talks constantly. she also chewed 2/3 of the way through a red wood beam in our aviary.
