at Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary. Saturday was such a day.
 Thursday March 31st, WOW!!!!!!!!, what a storm. Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary spent 6 1/2 hours without electric. Winds so strong that trees came crashing down. One just missing the aviaries.
 So as you can imagine, today has to start out on a good note. The work of clean up here at our rescue will be a long hard one. The Macaws, Cockatoos and Amazons in the aviary will have lots of entertainment from the humans today.
 Chain saw definately need. Anyone have one to loan????????
 Oh, did I mention a hearty breakfast for all the feathered members of M.A.R.S., and actually some left over for me. Â
Saturday turned out to be a picture perfect day for visiting M.A.R.S.
We were pleased to have ample help from our volunteers Jane, Linden and Frank. Their amazing team work helped facilitate a quick feed and clean up. This allowed all of us quality time to spend with our visitors, and provided some great one on one time with the cockatoos, macaws, amazons and other avian members who reside here in our Florida Parrot Rescue M.A.R.S.
So have another cup of coffee and view our Saturday the 12th photo album on our Facebook page.
Just a quick note, our new gallery of birds for adoption will be available this week. We will be updating our website. Also visit Petfinder and AdoptAPet.com.
Sometimes we all have a tendency to look to quickly, and judge to harshly, without getting the full story.
Exactly what I did when first viewing this picture.
The subject matter jumped off the page, and I assumed the worst. Feathers of Cockatoos being used for fashion shoes, which of course was not the case at all. The designer used turkey and chicken feathers dyed in bright colors for high fashion shoe embellishment.
Although this was an eye catcher of an advertisement, I doubt if any of us will be slaves to this kind of fashion statement. Always remember to get the facts straight before jumping to the wrong conclusions.
