My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sara is a Poicephalus (Senegal) who is hand-tame and super-friendly! She is not a noisy girl but enjoys whistling and talking, saying “Hey Sara!” and “Come here!” in the sweetest little voice. Sara is very smart and will learn new tricks if you reward her, especially with safflower seeds, her favorite. Her foster family is even working on harness-training her. Sara is content in her cage, but she is also eager to spend time outside it. She enjoys flying around and would like a spacious area to use her wings. She likes riding on shoulders, receiving head scritches, and throwing her food everywhere. Sara has a history of preferring women over men, but this brave girl recently flew to a male in her foster home and let him hold her! Would this calm, confident bird be a good match for your family? Adoption fee: $150.

Additional adoption info

Whether interested in adopting a particular bird or not, you will need to fill out an Adoption Application, which can be found on our website. From there, our adoption team will process your application (including background check, veterinarian check for all current animals, and a home visit)
We will not ship any of our adoptable birds, and have a 100-mile adoption radius. We do not adopt to breeders. We are not able to adopt birds into homes that use Teflon product or smoke due to toxicity dangers.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

The FIRST step is to fill out an adoption application on our website at www.staravian.org/adopt. We are not able to arrange a meeting without first filling out an adoption application.
