Dear Parrots magazine,
The Moluccan’s habitat
Thank you for the quick response to my letter, and thank you for Rosemary Low’s response. I am left with some questions.

Letters: Parrot Harnesses
Dear Parrots magazine,
Parrot Harnesses
I must say that I agree entirely with Rosemary Low’s comments on the extended use of parrot harnesses in the December 2017 issue (239) of Parrots magazine. It is undoubtedly a subject that will polarise people’s opinions, with some vehemently opposed to parrots wearing harnesses, while others find their use invaluable.
Letters: Moluccan Cockatoo’s status
Dear Parrots magazine,
Moluccan Cockatoo’s status
In the book, Cockatoos in Aviculture by Rosemary Low, she writes “Roland Wirth* stated: The Moluccan … Cockatoo in the wild might become extinct long before the Imperial Amazon … At the time of writing, the estimated population of the Imperial Amazon in the wild was 80 birds, with only one in captivity on the island and a rumoured four birds outside Dominica.”
Letters: Just in time
Dear Parrots magazine,
Just in time
I was at a craft fair and saw some items that I thought would make an interesting toy for my Amazon. It was made of wood and a type of raffia tie-up., which I thought would be OK.
Letters: My New Family
Dear Parrots magazine,
My New Family
Who says animals don’t give you great comfort? It was three years ago, when sadly I lost my husband and have been living on my own ever since. This has been an extremely difficult time for me as my health has also suffered. Needless to say depression set in and I reluctantly went on to anti-depressants from my doctor.
Letters: Go natural!
Dear Parrots magazine,
Go natural!
An elderly relative who had recently died had a White-fronted Amazon and as I was the most animal orientated relative, this parrot, complete with cage, ended up with me, as I already had a Green-cheeked Conure.
