Dear Parrots magazine,
I would like to point out some problems that I have encountered when building aviaries and having them galvanised. I wanted some flights built to match a building I already have available and went to what I thought was an expert in aviary manufacturing – I won’t mention any names. I produced a rough sketch of what I wanted, which included some mesh panels and some sheeted panels.
Dear Parrots magazine,
Being a busy person, I am always a bit late in reading my Parrots magazine and I have just caught up with the October issue. Excellent as usual, but I was absolutely delighted to read the article on the Hawaiian 12 and what a wonderful story with a wonderful ending.
Dear Parrots magazine,
I have been a subscriber to Parrots magazine for a number of years now, and my keen interest is in conservation. I have an Amazon and a Senegal Parrot which were both rescues and am growing increasingly concerned at the way these birds’ natural habitats are being destroyed due to human greed. It is good that the magazine covers conservation and it is not just for parrots, but the whole of our wildlife and eco system.
Dear Parrots magazine,
Over the years I have read a lot about cage sizes and that our environmental authorities lay down minimum specifications that a bird kept in a cage must be able to outstretch its wings.
Dear Parrots magazine,
I have lost count of the number of times I have heard that avocado pears are lethal for parrots and can actually end up in the loss of a bird.
Dear Parrots magazine,
I remember when the Animal Welfare Act was being debated and discussed by our MPs and during that time an issue was raised as to whether or not rescue centres should be licenced. Perhaps it was because I lost track of what was going on at that time, with the result that as far as I know rescue centres are not licenced.
