Due to the current lock down and social distancing rules in place, we are struggling to raise funds to cover our essential charity costs.
One thing that all our members and supporters could do is simply nominate us for Movement for Good charitable giving fund. The £1000 pound would mean that our current funds remain solely for Avian Vet care for the increase in parrots coming into the rescue
All we need you to do is nominate ASP by entering our registered charity number 1176640

Are you sexually frustrating your parrot?
For thousands of years, we humans have been used to the kind of pet that sees grooming over most of their body as a platonic gesture (dogs and cats). Their wild ancestors would groom each other as a bonding activity between family and good friends. This translates to a creature that accepts pats and stroking all over from others as a friendly activity. Naturally we do the same for birds too. But birds are actually more like humans – we reserve most of our permission to touch for that special Significant Other. Most of the time, we humans don’t even realise just how much we are teasing our feathered companions!
In the wild, parrots only groom each other’s heads as a platonic, friendly gesture. Almost all other touching is sexual in nature! They simply don’t allow any other flock member to touch below the neck unless it’s their bonded mate. This translates to us, too. If you’re used to petting your bird all over, you may not have the intention, but it can be psychologically damaging to the point of self destruction.
What are you really telling your bird when you pat them?
Head – We’re good friends.
Down the back – Let’s get it on baby!
Tail and vent – You make me horny! Let’s make love!
Belly and under wings – You’re my soulmate, let’s start a family ❤
Feet – Neutral (no message)
It’s no wonder some birds start tearing all their feathers out in pure frustration from the signals we are sending them! Sexual frustration is the number one behaviour problem we see and it leads to a lot of issues: self mutilation, screaming, biting, territorial and nesting behaviour, and this ongoing spiral of unwanted behaviour is then the number one cause of rehoming, too.
Please be more mindful of the signals you accidentally send your bird. Your touch can mean a whole lot more than you realise!
