Excellent article, Michael! I can't begin to tell you how many people there are out there who don't have a clue about what it takes to properly care for a bird, but they get one anyway! Most of the birds I have are from people who didnt think first before acquiring a bird, or just plain lost interest once the novelty wore off. It breaks my heart to see so many birds in sad situations, and my home and time are at limit with the birds I care for, I just can't take them all in!!! I do my best to guide and educate, and I refer them to your website. I try to catch people before they get a bird, and present the same information that you have presented here. In doing so I've had more than one person who has changed their minds about getting a bird. I wish there was more I could do for our feathered friends.
