Angel the blue and gold macaw, mimsy the lesser sulphur too, rocky the galah & willow the blue crowned conure.
as some of you know i live near to a parrot rescue and have been helping out. i adopted rocky a few months back and recently a 14 year old red rump, who had to have a beak made from resin because his was broken :(

well, the lady who runs the rescue centre came to visit and asked if i would be willing to adopt some of the smaller birds, i'm currently building a huge aviary.. so the more the merrier!

i have a stanley rosella with a poorley foot, a lutino cockatiel who lost her 33 year old mate! and a love bird lola who was also alone, well lola was quarantined and i have a lovebird gracie who wanted a friend. i put the cages near each other and they've been tweeting non stop!
a few days later i opened both cages and gracie landed on lola's and flew back into her own, it was like an invitation. lola flew straight into gracies cage and BOOM love at first sight! you could slmost see the fireworks...they've been preening each other ever since and are inseperable! i'm so happy!!
have added a pic of lola

I am so glad that they are getting along and are happy now - we cannot ask for better. :D

Thanks for building an aviary, like you said, the more the merrier. It is so wonderful to see that there are people out there that puts everything in and bring happiness.:D They ask for so little.

A Greenwing, a Sun Conure, and a Hahn's Macaw
as some of you know i live near to a parrot rescue and have been helping out. i adopted rocky ..., i'm currently building a huge aviary.. so the more the merrier! ...

Please tell us about the aviary. Size, shape, materials, construction, number of birds you expect it to hold.

I'm planning an aviary in my backyard, and have more or less decided to purchase a prebuilt aviary which is 9ft long X 5ft deep X 6ft tall. It's the largest one they sell. But, I think it will just barely be large enough for my Greenwing to flex himself.

I'm looking for alternatives.

Thank you for taking care of a few of God's creatures.

The story of Lola and Gracie makes me happy. It's a shame for creatures to be alone when they could be with a friend.
