Feathered Friends Giving Macaws And Parrots A Second Chance

Feathered Friends is rehabilitating macaws and parrots, giving them a second chance at living a wholesome life.

Through guided tours, it is hoping to transform the way future generations interact with and care for pet birds.

According to owner Johann Edwards, his love for birds led to the creation of the rescue, adoption and rehabilitation centre in Cascade, Port of Spain.

"How Feathered Friends all started was about ten years ago when I adopted my first macaw, called Rio. Since I was a baby, a child, as far as I can remember, I always loved macaws and parrots."

Rio was given the best environment to thrive, eventually learning to free-fly, but as time passed, Johann observed that many macaws and parrots met with a different fate.
