Let there be DRAMA, bird drama that is.

  • My “Web Master” Marc,  has given me a new way to share stories  and pictures and links of Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary , which I am hoping will allow me to be more creative and visual with my posts and not so afraid of screwing everything up when I do so. However, all ready I have erred, by creating a run on sentence. Oh well!

My all to brief Christmas get a way to Asheville, where we all converged to celebrate the season allowed me a chance to be tutored by Marc and hopefull retain some of the vast amounts of information he shared with me.

  • From using this venue to do posts,  to using Instagram for attracting followers to our cause,  to direct postings to our  MARS you tube and so on. You get the idea. Increasing our followers and our viewers to our Florida Parrot Rescue MARS website is also needed for 2016.
  • Now if I can just figure out how to do simple paragraphs without bullets and numbers then I suppose I will have it down. Perhaps I will try a picture right now and then get really brave and start posting adoptable birds right here as well. Wish me luck!! Cause I sure need it. ps I miss Christmas decorations already.
  • And the picture of wine is just for fun. Right Janey?

M.A.R.S. update, Part II (What did happen to Jakers?)

Cockatoo Jake in Tree Now to continue on with the “Bird Drama”from our M.A.R.S. blog of May 15th. Remember, I promised you all there would be some now and agian. Well, we still owe you an ending to that story.

Jakers, as any of you who know him, delights in spending all his time up in the mulberry tree located within the Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary visitor area. (Yes, unfortunately at this time we are still closed to visitors, but working hard on a solution to change that status). This time of the year the mulberry tree is in full foliage and can provide complete camouflage to even a (white) Cockatoo. Jakers more then takes advantage of this fact. He pretty much stays up there all day observing all that happens at our Florida Parrot Rescue M.A.R.S.. At times one is keenly aware that he is commenting or singing, but you always know that he is watching. The exception to this behavior is usually just heading down the branches for treats and water, only to quickly return to the upper parts of the tree where he continues his watchful gaze.

This day was to provide the other exception. From high up as we told you in our last blog, Jake spotted someone who he thought was quite interesting,(our prior adopter) and considering all the commotion happening below, he did come down and join in for a laugh and some playtime with this human. The noise level escalated, it was time to rein it all in. We proceeded to do just that, or so we thought.

Shortly after this, when we noticed Jake was gone, and I had done (the Lu thing), we were all looking around for him and heard laughter. It was coming from a cage. Our visitor, had mistaken Jakers for Dusty, and placed him there. What makes this even better is that Jake never allows anyone to cage him easily, to Jake this means a bath and he absolutely hates baths. So upon our discovery of the mistaken identity of the caged bird, Jakers proceeded to let out a most gleeful laugh, followed by all the rest of us doing exactly the same thing.

Never, ever, dull here at Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary. Please stay tuned for our updates and follow us on this blog and our facebook.com/marsparrots page. We so appreciate all who do so, and remember also to tell all your friends to do so and hopefulll they will hit the like our page button.
