"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.

Check out our Donor Hall of Fame! Thank you for the outpouring of support for the Pueblo Flock!

 

 

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 have been completed on all 42 birds and we are still awaiting some test results. We will be posting the information on the PUEBLO FLOCK SPONSORSHIP PAGE as soon as we have a comprehensive overview.  There are still 9 birds available for sponsorship (see below), please consider this special opportunity to be a hero for a deserving bird.  Following quarantine and full evaluation, some of the Pueblo Flock 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.

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 thrilled to offer a special opportunity to anyone who signs up for a one-year sponsorship for one of the Pueblo Flock. You sponsor a bird - you name it!  What a great way to form a unique bond with a special bird! And, trust us - these are some special birds!

As soon as you are signed up, we will change your bird's cage card and start using the moniker you have chosen! You will be listed as your bird's sponsor and will receive a magnet featuring a picture of your bird, as well as regular updates on its progress.  What a wonderful gift to give a deserving bird - the first step on its path to a new life!

The outpouring of support for the Pueblo Flock has been truly spectacular. These birds have touched so many hearts! Their attitude and resilience continues to awe us all. We are enjoying getting to know these amazing birds and calling them by their fabulous new names!

Some of you have shared with us how you chose the name for your sponsored bird – we can all see how Goodlookin got his name!  We love reading the stories and are going to impart them to everyone on the Pueblo Flock’s page. If you would like to have your story included, please email it to office@thegabrielfoundation.org and we will gladly post it.

Currently, 33 of the 42 Pueblo birds are sponsored. The remaining nine are waiting for that special someone to give them a fighting chance and a special name. Won’t you please consider becoming a lifelong friend to a deserving psittacine!
