King O at Best Friends In view of the recent seizure of the birds at Wings Over the Rainbow, it got me pondering their dire situation, how-heart breaking and frustrating it must be to be in a position where you cannot afford to move out of a building that is not supporting your needs and [...]

I think it’s important for bird shops and rescues that have caged birds, that those cages be showplaces. They need to be set up the way the proprietor would like to see those birds cared for. They should be clean and neat with fresh paper, clean water, various sized perches and interesting toys. The food [...]

Ewww! Seriously? Photo courtesy of Janet Hilton I’m not done. I wasn’t so much bothered by my last diatribe as I was puzzled. And I realized that I’m not finished discussing this issue. People have been so supportive and I thank you all. When I first got into learning about aviculture I thought the welfare [...]

Juanita’s apron is not really her style as you might have learned. She’s not quite the “Land-Sakes-Alive!” little old lady type of weasel. But Juanita has an explanation for her from-frou style of clothing protection when she is making Chop. Once again, Thanks to Jenny Lawson, “The Bloggess” for her generous permission to use her creation, [...]

I created a video assembled from photos sent by friends and Parrot Nation Readers from all over the place. It was a small project and I did the editing in about two days, but it was a lot of fun to put together. What I wanted to do was show you that Chop is indeed [...]
A Working Vacation

Photo Courtesy of the Chart Group I’m on vacation finally and it feels good. Of course when you have time off, you begin thinking of all of the things you can finally get done. Things you didn’t have time to do because you were working and still had to keep up with the cooking, the [...]

See? I have the official “Writer’s Shirt” and everything! Being a writer is not all skittles and beer. And not all of it involves sitting under an oak tree with a lovely Moleskine Journal and a fountain pen waxing poetic about the meaning of life. At least not for me. This website has Moleskine Journals: [...]
