News from Mar 09, 2010

A San Jose household which recently had to leave their foreclosed home released the birds in their aviary to the outdoors.  The news story about the release, and Mickaboo's efforts to re-capture the birds, is at http://www.ktvu.com/video/22781207/index.html

Please spread the word that releasing captive parrots is NOT an option if you can't keep your birds - instead, contact your local rescue or humane society. One bird has already been plucked off by a hawk and despite our volunteers' best efforts, it's likely more of these parrots will die than be rescued :(
