My story

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

Rico and Paco are a bonded pair of Amazons looking for a home to spend their golden years. Paco is in his later 60s and has some vision decline, but Rico is there to make sure that Paco knows everything going on in their environment. Out of respect for their bond, Paco and Rico are required to be adopted together. They would also like to stay local, so they do have a limited adoption travel distance. If you think your home would be great for these two seniors or would like to learn more about their special bond, please fill out an application or email parrots@bestfriends.org.
