Hi my name is Calipso, I'm a 18 yr old
Red Lored Amazon. I came to live here on Sept 28th, 2002,
my hatchday is Sept 25th,1990. Mom was walking around a
bird fair just looking at everything when her foot bumped something
under a table. She bent down and laid her eyes on me. She quickly
went and got Dad and told him she wasn't leaving with out me. She
could tell I really needed someone to take me home. When I first came
home I had a bad infection internally, but worse yet I had over 40
broken bones in my body all in various stages of being healed. The
worst one was in my right wing, they tried to wrap it different ways
to keep it set in place and my Aunt Nancy from Macaw Talk even made
me a special suit to wear, but nothing helped it. Then the Vet said
it was time for surgery to pin it,but when she opened it up it was
way to bad to fix,so it had to be amputated. Most of the time I don't
miss it, but sometimes I forget and fall, then Mom justs calls me her
little thud muffin. I can tell you one thing it doesn't keep that
handsome dude Cj from making eyes at me.

Hi I'm Cj, I'm a Double Yellow Headed
Amazon. I'm 39 years old,my hatch day is December 31st,1970.
I was a wild caught import that spent most of my life as a breeder.
About a year before I came here to live my mate died and I just
wasn't interested in another. My owner was a friend of Mom's and he
asked her if I could come here and retire, because he knew she would
say yes. I think Calipso is real pretty and like to hag out with her
when ever Mom will let us.
