Izzy

The look of amazement on Izzy’s face whenever someone says “whatchadoin?” in the right tone of voice is positively hysterical. She looks at the person as if to say: “WOW! You speak my language!” Her eyes get big, and she straightens up to reply: “whatchadoin?”

Izzy will step up if hands come at her from in front and behind and she lets preferred people preen her. She loves all sorts of juicy fruits, and almonds are a favorite. She can play “Where’s Izzy?” while sitting on someone’s shirt and can also snort winningly.

Our Mission is Simple

To work in joint cooperation with all avian rescue groups to try and eliminate the need for rescue groups by educating the public about aviculture issues. Until that is accomplished, we will provide a sanctuary for those unfortunate parrots that are in need of a home.
