Bitsy tales a close look
Bitsy a Ducorps Cockatoo really got an eye full of herself in the mirror. She stared and stared and made those funny little sounds that only a Ducorps seems to make, as if asking, “Is that what I really look like?”
Well, Miss Bitsy, we here at M.A.R.S., our Florida parrot rescue, are about to try some brand new   Harrisons Heal products to see if we can help improve your image.  
We will be using two products, Soother a topical spray, along with Bird Builder a dietary supplement.
 With the use of these products along with fresh air and sunshine, and some other additions to Bitsys’ daily routine we will hope to see marked improvement in what would other wise seem a lost cause. 
Follow Bitsys’ progress with us, sign up for our feed on marsparrots.org , and follow us on Facebook, Florida Parrot Rescue M.A.R.S..
Please if you can consider a donation to our cause to help purchase the products needed to continue the rehabilitation process of birds like our Bitsy.

Kiwi, the eye in the bird carrier

Does this seem a strange title for a post? Well not for those who follow us on Facebook, Florida Parrot Rescue M.A.R.S.. We posted a picture and asked what species of exotic bird could the eye peering from the carrier belong to.

For your viewing, Kiwi in her entire form. She is a Camelot Macaw. Please share if you know what the mother and father are.

We hope  you will watch Kiwi’s progress with us here at Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary.

We will keep you updated on her feathering progress. Please consider a donation to our cause. We appreciate all your continued support.

M.A.R.S. HOURS OF OPERATION CHANGES

m.a.r.s

When you have a set schedule you hope to be able to stay consistent. Unforeseen situations develop however, and have a way of causing change.

Volunteer availability changes. Weather plays a factor. Those who have previously visited M.A.R.S. know we are an outside operation, and we need nice weather to be open.

With that said, this Friday the 21st will be adoption day. Please visit Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary then. If  this is not possible, then special arrangements can be made for another day.

Saturday, weather permitting, we will be open, but do to lack of volunteers our hours will be 1:00 to 4:30.

M.A.R.S. regrets that these changes are necessary. If anyone would like to sign up to volunteer, go to our forms page marsparrots.org/forms  and fill out the application. E-mail marsparrots@aol.com, and we will set up an interview. Volunteers are required to scedule two days a week here at M.A.R.S..

The 12th night is here, time to put away all the holiday cheer.

Time to pack away all the trappings of the Christmas season. Time to keep all the wonderful memories close to your heart. Time to thank family and friends for simply being the amazing people that they are.

 A  final Happy New Year, from all  here at Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary.

Our big wish, is that everyone continue to follow and support  M.A.R.S  in 2011.  This needs to be the year for amazing changes to take  place. Follow us on our blog, via our direct feed, or on Facebook/M.A.R.S.,(florida parrot rescue M.A.R.S.) and be a part of it  as it happens.
