[Mickaboo Action] shelter budgies
by Michelle Yesney 29 Dec '06

29 Dec '06

All, I hope all of you had a happy Christmas or Hanukkah, and that you are ready for a happy New Year. We are facing a new year much like the past one. There is a budgie in the Silicon Valley Humane Society shelter, and another in the Palo Alto shelter. Neither of these shelters are really set up to take care of birds, and I hate to leave anybody there for very long. The SVHS budgie has been there for a month now. She really needs to come out, but we need a foster home for her. If anyone can offer one or both of these budgies a foster home, please let me know. Thank you and Happy New Year, all. Michelle bc

Ya, and if anyone out there within our group speaks Vietnamese, please let "Rico" and I know! Seriously, Rico spent 5 years with an old Vietnameese man who did not speak english and believe me, the 7 months Rico has been here, he still looks at me like I'm a little off in the head.

[Mickaboo Action] Roberto the amazon

Hi! Recently I posted for a foster home for Roberto, a 15 year old unknown species of amazon, and received several offers to foster. However, I have since learned that Roberto has lived in a home where the only language spoken was Chinese. Do we have any amazon foster families who speak Chinese that might be willing to take him? He will be going through a lot of stress losing his home and his elderly owners and it might make him more comfortable if he understood what people say to him. He MUST be moved before January 15th. If you can help please contact me ASAP. Thanks. Claudia Melteff Amazon/Macaw Adoption Coordinator Mickaboo (650) 583-1940

[Mickaboo Action] Need your talents and your bird's as well!
by Nancy Powell 28 Dec '06

Hi there-- We're designing new promotional material for Mickaboo. One of the new brochures will be titled "Donate". We'd like to get a picture of a bird with a bill held in his claws or beak (claws would be best). Anybody have a bird that would do that??? Also, another brochure will be titled "Learn" and will talk about our bird care classes. Anyone like to give a little testimonial about the usefulness of our classes? Thanks for your help! --Nancy -- Nancy Powell Operations Manager Mickaboo Cockatiel Rescue Don't breed, Don't buy, Adopt a needy bird today!

I've heard of a hawk that flew off with a Blue and Gold from someone's backyard. That one was lucky and the hawk dropped it and it survived. It's winter and bad weather. Hawks are hungry and will take more risks!
