Life recently granted me an eastern rosella after he was found nearby on the back fence of a garden. Never thought I’d see the day.

A 48-hour lodger only, because for once we actually found the owner (!!).
It was two days of whistling duets and kisses. What an absolute joy. 🪶

Recently I delivered these two to The Haven Parrot Rescue for rehoming. I ended up fostering them for over four months which is WAY longer than usual, but it was necessary.

The house feels so different without them. It’s quieter and there’s a lot less sass in the air. Missing them loads 🪶

Cockatiel landed on a family’s balcony in East London last week. They named her Orange. No owner has come forward.

~3 months old and not too tame or too skittish. She’s off to an independent rehomer today for more care, attention, and (hopefully) a new home with cockatiel friends v soon! 🪶

Sponge enjoying a spray shower, captured in this most excellent photo. I feel this needs to be turned into a super cute drawing?! 🪶

Lemon and Sponge update: Lemon has laid 15 (!!) eggs, so we had to separate with a partition in the cage. I’d been watching Sponge watching Lemon struggle to fit them all underneath her, and only just realised he probs wanted to help. Finally gave him an egg and LOOK HOW PROUD HE IS 😭 🪶

I don’t usually keep my rescues for long, but I’ve still got Sponge and Lemon. Sponge has ongoing health issues, and I can’t in good conscience pass them along for rehoming until things are resolved.

Sadly, it’s not looking great. The tests are inconclusive and he’s not improving 😭 🪶

Meet Prince. We took him in when his owner could no longer manage his growing lump. He was with us for 6 sweet days: tame, confident & gentle. We’d hoped it was just a lipoma, as budgies are so prone to them - but once we looked into it, it was clearly something far worse.

We miss you, Prince 🪶

Currently in my care: the cutest pair of cockatiels. Sponge (right) was found a week after Lemon, both in East London. They’ve been together for a week and are certified besties.

Lemon incessantly demands crest preens. Sponge obliges and gets absolutely nothing in return. Justice 4 Sponge 🪶

Cockatiel people, how do you get anything done with these chaos gremlins around? Are they always so angy/sassy?

This cutie pie was found in East London a couple of weeks ago. No owner has come forward, so I’ll be passing her on for rehoming this weekend 🪶
July 4, 2025 at 12:34 PM
Dear conure people, how do you get anything done? Are they all 10/10 clingy???

Currently IMC, found in Finsbury Park, London on Sunday 29th June. Posted everywhere iso owner but nobody has come forward yet. Wishing I could find them so I can have my personal space back. 🪶

Currently IMC is bby budgie!

Saw a FB post in a local group- she’d been seen in the Olympic Park. A lovely passerby was beside her calling around for help & said birb was in the exact same spot 12 hours earlier 😭. Thankfully she was easy to catch.

Not tame, but the top of my head is her new home 🪶

Why have a (desperately needed) restful bank holiday weekend when you can take on a Blue Tit fledgling who needs to be fed every 20 minutes from 6am - 10pm? 🪶

Stray Quaker is still in my care awaiting transport to birb charity. He’s untame but loves towel burrito time + head kisses. He’s my only birb & I feel terrible for how lonely & bored he is. Hmu if you’re in London/surrounding & have space for another quaker. He’s PBFD negative and confirmed male. 🪶

Currently in my care is the most adorable parrot EVER, a blue Quaker! She was found grounded in a playground in North London.

We’re still iso the owner and in the meantime I’ve sent off her PBFD test. As she’s not tame, she’ll be best suited to an aviary with other Quakers (if owner is not found) 🪶

I’m on the other side of what was briefly my dream come true. I fostered a stray pineapple conure for a short time. She’s a velcro birb. I’ve always wanted a super tame birb, and she made that dream a reality.

She’s now in her wonderful new home with loving humans and other conure friends 🪶

UK friends!! If you’re not watching @yrfatfriendfilm.bsky.social on BBC four starring @yrfatfriend.bsky.social by @jeaniefinlay.com, then WHAT ARE YOU EVEN DOING?!?
January 28, 2025 at 10:36 PM
How is this a real birb? Another favourite from Australia 🪶
January 9, 2025 at 3:36 PM
I died inside when these friendly crimson rosellas came right up to me for treats. I had only seen them from a distance until this point. They are strikingly beautiful up close. I miss them😭

This was at the Stanwell Tops Lookout (as a huge storm pulled in, otherwise I’d have stayed there forever) 🪶

Last year I went to Australia for an Evanescence concert on a whim. Yes, really. I didn’t expect to fall in love with Sydney the way I did. I’ve just come back from another trip and the post-holiday blues are hitting me hard. What’s the point if there aren’t parrots everywhere? 🪶

Recently bought a mega cheap cricut on marketplace and I am OBSESSED!

I’ve been making keyrings and pins that I’ll be donating to Celia Hammond Animal Trust to sell at upcoming Christmas fayres.

The cricut possibilities are endless!
November 12, 2024 at 10:38 PM
Finally sent B-Louie on his way to be rehomed! His owner was never found, and another blue budgie turned up in the same spot a week after Blouie. 🤷‍♀️

Improving my birb intake process with PBFD testing, for which he tested negative. 🙌

What better pic to bid him farewell than one taken mid-chomp? 🪶
November 12, 2024 at 2:22 PM
Currently in my care is this sweet boi. He was being offered for free on a local FB group as a found budgie. Thankfully I spotted the post early.

He’s going through a v heavy moult but also has a mild respiratory infection. He’s on antibiotics and I’m keeping everything crossed he pulls through 🪶

If I could summarise the time we treated three poisoned crows in one photo, this would be it.

There were 5 in total showing poisoning symptoms. We think they may have eaten a poisoned rodent. Two didn’t make it, and it was a long road but the three we had made a full recovery 🖤 🪶

Throwback to when I was given a baby birb that was found grounded. His demands for food were big and constant. The very face of ‘GIB’ 🪶
September 25, 2024 at 1:08 PM
Currently in my care is this tiny sparrow who's determined to stress himself to death. He was brought in to a local vet clinic; I think he’s a fledgling, and I’m treating an issue with his right eye.

Every time I try to treat him, he manages to escape & causes utter chaos while evading capture
