| wellll you all know where I stand...The Zons are LOUD, opinionated, resourceful and intelligent as well as having a great ability to adapt to change, and a sense of humor that is equal to the rest of their qualities. I am laughed at and with on a daily basis and it is "no joke" you have to be a leader though or they will rule. I will take them in till I just can't anymore. They have my heart. | |

| Its so great to see someone helping unwanted amazons or any species for that matter. Rather than actually own a parrot I have chosen to save my pennies and travel to see them in the wild. Also what is real cool is to travel to countries that do not have a lot of resources and help with Eco-tourism. They get valuable revenue and I get to see their gorgeous parrots flying wild and free!

Of the birds I have personal experience with I'd have to say the conures. Of the birds I want, I want a Brazilian hawkhead really, really badly. I have a friend who is a breeder. | |

| Einstein's breeder is one of the only Hawkhead breeders in Canada. Too bad I didn't have a chance to see any.
She sells them for 3,600.
There's actually one in one of the rescues here in Ontario. | |

What is it about Amazons that you love so much? What makes them so special compared to other big parrots? | |
