"Many have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it. You remain responsible, forever, for what you have tamed." – Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The beauty of the world can all be found in the friendship of one beautiful bird.
Having an animal that loves you unconditionally isn't difficult, it just takes a little effort and a lot of love.
The beauty of the world can all be found in the friendship of one beautiful bird.

The Pueblo Flock are settling into their new home and most are adapting far better than we could have hoped. They have been receiving daily showers and most of the stench that had followed them here is gone. Most are ravenous for the fresh fruit and vegetables, sprouting mix and mash that is their new diet. Many are interacting with staff in the way we would expect from a healthy bird. Overall, we could not be more pleased with their progress thus far.

Medical exams on all 42 birds are scheduled for the week of February 15th. We hope to gain valuable information from these that will allow us to tailor care to each bird's individual needs.

Learn the horrendous details of the Pueblo resscue by reading the whole story as told by Gaye Thomasson, TGF Volunteer Coordinator and member of the rescue team. Then read Gaye's detailed account of the Pueblo Flock as they move to their new home.   Watch Gaye's heartwarming video from the Pueblo rescue.  Share them with everyone you know.

We are blown away by the interest that has been shown in helping the Pueblo Flock. We are working tirelessly to get them settled. THEY ARE NOW AVAILABLE FOR SPONSORSHIP (see below); and following quarantine and full evaluation, some may be available for foster or adoption. There are many other birds waiting to be fostered or adopted right now, so please consider them if you are looking to help.

Thank you to our amazing volunteers and staff who have made this transition as seamless as possible. And, thank you to everyone who has shown such generosity to this special flock that has been through so much - please help whenever you can, this flock has a long road to recovery.
