Live and virtual visits that help students connect science, empathy, and real-world conservation, with rescued macaws in the room.
Each session blends storytelling, biology, and hands-on learning to help students understand how parrots live, think, and communicate, and why they need our help. Programs align with science and environmental education standards, and they're built to spark curiosity, compassion, and action.
Each program adjusts to the audience. Visit length can be adjusted to fit your needs, along with class size and curriculum goals.
Early learners
Discovering how parrots use their beaks and feathers, what they eat, and why the rainforest needs them.
Curious minds
Ecosystems, endangered species, and how scientists study wild flocks in the field.
Future changemakers
Conservation, the wildlife trade, animal behavior, and ethical care. Libraries, nature centers, and clubs welcome.
Safety and comfort come first, so which birds attend depends on group size, setting, and travel distance.
Blue-throated macaw
Max came to us at eight years old after living in ten different homes. He has a damaged wing and can’t fly, but he makes up for it with his sharp mind and love of problem-solving. True to his species, he’s clever, curious, and always eager to train or tackle a new puzzle.
Can't fly, but loves training and a new puzzle.
Blue-and-gold macaw
Willow was adopted from a loving family who could no longer care for her when she was three. She’s trained in free flight and loves meeting new people, making her a natural ambassador for her species. Confident and social, she reminds everyone how joyful and connected parrots can be when given the right space to thrive.
Trained in free flight and loves meeting people.
Red-crowned Amazon · 2 years old
He’s the youngest member of our flock and a species that’s endangered in the wild. Echo is fully flighted and trained in indoor ascents, descents, boomerangs, and recalls, and he loves heading out on hikes in his backpack. Social and a bit of a showman, he loves to entertain with words and tricks.
Our youngest flier, and a bit of a showman.
Timneh African grey · 55 years old
Buzz is wild-caught and spent most of his life as a breeder bird before joining our flock. Now retired from that world, he’s learning that his new environment can be safe and kind. Every small step he takes toward trust reminds us why rescue and patience matter.
