The World of Parrots

Bibi is an African Grey parrot, being broadcast live on Ustream.  I embedded it here so you don’t have to search around looking for it.  Enjoy.

Congress is considering a bill, H.R. 669, The non-native species ban.  This bill would ban any species of animal life not native to the united states, if a government bureaucrat determined that the species would harm any species or habitat in the US, if the species were let loose in the wild.  In other words, you could find your pet bird illegal to possess and subject to seizure and euthanasia

If you choose to get involved in opposing this bill, there is a website that has a range of activities.  The site’s URL is;  www.nohr669.com.  I urge all my readers to contact their congressman and tell him you oppose this legislation.  Full instructions are at the site.

Welcome to the world of parrots.  As you can see, this is the first post.  As we progress, we will strive to make this site current, informative and original.  We will try to cover some of the things that the big sites miss or don’t care to cover.

Our readers can help us in this endeavor.  Tell us what you want or need in a comment and we’ll try our best to oblige you.

Here’s to many years of happy birding.
