A Helping Wing is looking for local contractors, willing to donate their time to assist with construction. The rescue also is working toward renovating one of the property's barns to serve as on indoor/outdoor area for sanctuary birds. Several others are sanctuary birds that will remain at the rescue to spend the rest of their days minimally disturbed by humans while many others are being cared for, rehabilitated, and prepared for adoption.Īdoption fees vary anywhere from $250 to $600, depending on the size of the bird, and the rescue is no longer accepting surrendered birds at this time, unless it is urgent.Ĭome autumn, Gilligan hopes to have completed the rescue's 16-foot by 22-foot play room, equipped with bird-sized jungle gyms, toys and perches hanging from the ceiling.

Some are affectionate, nuzzling their holder while repeatedly saying "I love you " some are cheeky comedians with one-liners like "Have I got a deal for you " and others mimic the distinguishable noises that can usually be heard from a bathroom. Some are bratty - as Gilligan identifies them - and demand attention with deafening shrieks. Some dance and some sing, some yell and some laugh. Some like their heads scratched, while others like the insides of their beaks rubbed. Like any good mother, Jeanne Gilligan knows the names and personalities of each of her birds. "Economy plays a big part, (too)," she said. but then you see they're messy and they're loud." Jeanne Gilligan said many of the parrots at the rescue are surrendered, generally by older couples, who can no longer care for them and their kids don't want them, or they are brought in as a result of outstanding circumstances, like a death or illness in the family.Īnother popular reason people surrender their birds is "spontaneous buying," Jeanne Gilligan said people buy a parrot on a whim, thinking it's a "cool pet.
