The perfect look for the spookiest time of the year.

Finders keepers!
🐦‍⬛
There's just something about all-black, a hint of mystery, and a thrifted collection of shiny treasures… it's practically magic, isn't it?
I'm not your average bird, you know — my intelligence and craftiness mean I solve problems, build tools, play games… and obviously, I make black look simply caw-geous.

If you need food or decorations for the party, I've got caches to spare. What's the most prized item in your crow-lection?

Got to go… there's a murder on the dance floor.

Chubby Bird of the Day: Jojo
Birdhist: Lori Barnhill Fidler

This is my 26-year-old parrot, Joel Simon Grey. He goes by Jojo, and loves to say "jojojojojo." He is a collector and connoisseur of beeps, including smoke alarms, back-up alarms, and microwaves past and present. His newest word is "Lilibutt," the nickname for our newest bunny, Lilith.

Consider getting your custom DnD/tabletop gaming dice set designed after your pet, and help a sweet friend out with bird funds.

Friends at Companion Parrots Rehomed are caring for 20 cockatiels and could use some help if you can share this around ❤️

Teamwork is the Dreamwork

Tonight we assisted with 20 cockatiels from a deceased mans home. The birds were living in very poor conditions and we wanted to give a shout out to the people from Sammy's Haven Pigeon Rescue and Free Spirit Parrot Sanctuary for helping us round up the birds. We never really know what we're walking into when we deal with these types of situations, it's always a pleasure working with Gaston County Animal Control as well. They have always gone above and beyond when we've worked with them.

Biggest shout out to Companion Parrots Re-homed for taking all of the cockatiels, no questions asked. The birds will eventually be available for adoption through CPR, while the conditions were poor they were well loved. And socialized.

Please consider throwing them some love and a few bucks to help with the birds care. Some of them are in very poor health.

Chubby Bird of the Day: Pearly
Birdhist: Sydney Baltrusaitis

This here is Pearly! He is such a sweet heart and loves his cuddles. He's a little bit of a plucker, but that doesn't stop him from getting into trouble and causing mischief! He's very friendly and loves to whistle to your toes.

“There’s no honorable way to kill, no gentle way to destroy. There is nothing good in war. Except it's ending.” - Star Trek: The Original Series

I agree, posts like this suck, but unfortunately, they need to exist. We have to put a spotlight on these problems if we're ever going to address them and maybe, one day, actually solve them.

War destroys lives, homes, families, communities, cultures, and the environment, leaving suffering that lasts for generations in its wake.

Humans aren't the only ones who suffer.

Wildlife doesn't understand politics, borders, or why it's suddenly raining bombs and blood. Just like us, birds and other animals lose their habitats, are injured or killed, and are left to survive in landscapes that have been poisoned, burned, or destroyed.

As usual, the people paying the highest price AREN'T the people making these cruel decisions. Ordinary people, especially those who are poor and vulnerable, are asked to sacrifice their lives and futures while ppl with wealth and power can profit/benefit from the systems surrounding war.

IMO, we should make those who benefit most from war fight on the front lines, and see what happens.

Stop with these senseless wars so ppl can listen to the birds.

Beautiful Rico we can't wait for you to find your people ❤️

Meet Rico, a handsome 15-year-old macaw with a big personality and plenty of charm!

Rico is playful, active, and happiest right in the middle of the action. He loves toys, dancing, head scritches, bath time, and playing his own version of “fetch” (you do the fetching, of course!). He’s also a smart guy who has learned to shake hands and has been working on confidence-building games in foster care.

Once Rico trusts you, he bonds deeply and loves spending time with his person. He can still bluff when he’s nervous or overly excited, so he’ll do best with someone comfortable reading macaw body language and continuing his socialization.

And yes, Rico has macaw-sized lungs and knows how to use them! Because of his flock calls, he needs a home without shared walls.

If you’re looking for an affectionate, entertaining best friend and have plenty of time, toys, and scritches to offer, Rico might just be your guy!

Chubby Bird of the Day: Kiwi & Zoe
Birdhist: Carina Renee Ellison

Kiwi 💚 & Zoe 🩵 are besties that were recently reunited. I adopted Zoe a few months ago and recently took in Kiwi, both from the same family. Zoe was instantly on Kiwi’s cage and wouldn’t leave her side. Turns out that were cage mates at their previous home! They’re happy as can be and do everything together, including an impromptu bath in a community water dish 🤭
