Where all the bird news comes to roost!
Oh dear, it seems Alexa and Roomba’s Easter egg hunt took a couple of wrong, and funny, turns. Morty of course was closely observing their antics from a safe distance, careful to get the whole story whilst not getting his feathers tarnished (or dipped in egg).
Everybirdie should hop on over to Morty’s April column to read about his two roommates’ Easter egg-venture!

Here it is folks, the interview everybirdie has been waiting for! Morty travels to the UK to perch down with the 5 Cursing Parrots of Lincolnshire Park. In this in-depth investigative report, Morty uncovers the truth behind how the group managed to get into so much trouble.
Catch up with Morty here to hear about his big UK adventure, and what he uncovered about the rascals and wallflowers among the Fab Five of Lincolnshire Park!
Our homes affect us in so many ways, from mood to our levels of anxiety. This too is the case for our birdie companions. The ambiance of their environment affects their level of anxiety too as well as their behaviour and reactions to what we are doing around the house.
Sherri’s March ’21 Feathered Frenzy column provides all parronts with some tips and tricks for creating and maintain a happy ambiance level for our birdie companions and us too!
Those of us birbs who live with other feathered friends know all too well that one buddy who just has to prove that their vocal solos are the best and the loudest right?
In Lavender’s February It’s A Birb Thing, Cheeks demonstrates her marvelous – and loud, vocal range (perhaps to the chagrin) of her birb friend.
In addition to a lot of gorgeous birds, we’ll visit Guido’s research station on a remote mountain in eastern Panama. From there it is up into his cloud forest preserve, where dozens of new species have been discovered.

Hormones. One word that strikes fear into the heart (and fingers) of many a parront. Our feathered companions are, like humans, governed by fluctuating and often irreconcilable hormones that wreak havoc on their behavior – and often, ours. Living in human households produces many good, and some not so good, birdie behavior. This is especially true when our sweet feathered companion turs into a little T-Rex, taking every advantage possible to attack fingers rather than cuddle or play.
In her February ’21 edition of Feathered Frenzy, Sherri provides a wealth of great tips and resources to help us parronts live, and keep our fingers relatively intact, during our fids’ hormonal rages.
In the February edition of Beneath the Cage Grate, Morty catches up with the saucy beaked parrots of Lincolnshire Park in the United Kingdom.
It seems some ‘remedial behavioral’ intervention by zookeepers has only helped to ramp up this flock’s salty language.
Follow along here as Morty investigates how the Lincolnshire Park Greys have ‘settled in’ over the last few months!
