The birds there were definitely more than just pets to him. I had the chance to join a friend that volunteers at a bird shelter. The birds there were definitely more than just pets to him.

(Would love to if there were some located in my area.) I don't belong to any local bird clubs. (Would love to join one) No bird-related business. (Would love to work for a bird related business) My love of birds are a part of my life it's my passion. I've had parakeets for over 50 years. I've raised many parakeets on vitamins, cornmeal & crackers. (Smile) I've have Sun Conures for at least 8 years. Sun Conures are such loveable birds that gives love 24/7. They never get tired of loving on you. My Sun Conure (Pookie) hates my husband and argues with him everytime he enters the room I'm in at the time.. He puffs up at my husband when he's in sight and squaks at him constantly. He dive bomb him all the time and bite him on the lips and takes off. My husband has him on "lock down" when he's home. This lock down period tears me apart because I'm use to having him fly freely all day when I'm home. I have three parakeets and one Sun Conure. My birds are a part of my peace of mind. My birds shows me love all the time and they trust me wholeheartedly. When I clean the cage they never bite me while I'm handling them moving them from cage to cage while cleaning. I can do anything I want with the Sun Conure; he's just a bungle of fun. He love to play "peek-a-boo" and to "ruff house". When we play "peek-a-boo" he will find me no matter where I am. He calls for me each morning saying "mommy", "mommy", "mommy". He says "hi", "goodby", "George", "Pookey". Chet thanks to you he talks. Just like you said I had to learn his voice. Once I learned his voice, I was able to teach him words. You are sooooooooooooooooooo helpful; more than you can ever imagine! No I’ve never volunteered at any local birds rescue.
