Those aren't the best publications out there.  Unfortunately it contains too much ick advertising, "pretty" pictures, and, at times, gross generalizations (and junk) - but some articles contain tid-bits of decent enrichment/nutrition/information.  (I think it's akin to the parrot's version of People Magazine) - but I didn't see anything in on the site that suggests she "likes" pet stores...   Manhattan Bird Club has some good members, but it is also notorious for supporting gross exaggerations and partial-truths and guilt-by-association.  It's like saying, "If you've visited Germany, you must be a Nazi."  In this case, because she "likes" a magazine she supports pet-sales?  Unless it's pointed out to me, I can't see where they gleened that info.   Actually, I'm annoyed enough that I'm going to write Sybil and ask her.   --- On Tue, 7/20/10, Elizabeth Y <adoptkings@gmail.com> wrote: From: Elizabeth Y <adoptkings@gmail.com> Subject: [Media-advisors] FW: Oasis Sanctuary supports pet stores To: "Mickaboo media advisor team" <media-advisors@mickaboo.org> Date: Tuesday, July 20, 2010, 8:37 AM Just FYI From: New York Bird Club <bestbirdclub@yahoo.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2010 1:31 AM To: adoptkings@gmail.com Subject: Oasis Sanctuary supports pet stores To view the thread go to: http://forums.manhattanbirdclub.com/post?id=4805538 Subject: Oasis Sanctuary *likes* Bird Channel Sybil Erden, the Director of the Oasis Sanctuary, *likes* Bird Channel page on Facebook.
