PELE
Pele, the Harlequin macaw, came to TGF a year ago, along with Burbank, a Greenwing macaw. When she arrived she was quite shy and wouldn’t interact with people or other birds, and we made the decision to separate the two so that Pele could start making decisions on her own. She has been working with TGF staffers, Colleen and Travis, and through our training program has made great progress!
While still somewhat reserved, she is now stepping up nicely and enjoys going out in the BIG flight with some of the other macaws. She has acclimated nicely and her world has broadened. Pele has blossomed into a wonderful bird and would be a great addition to the right family!
The Gabriel Foundation offers valuable resources to help ensure that when you bring a bird home, it will be a forever home. Take Beyond the Bird Basics -- this class is required to adopt from TGF and has been taken by many professionals who have found it extremely useful. And, consider sponsorship while you educate yourself about the species and get to know a bird. It is the best way to determine if a particular parrot will be the right addition to your family.
