It’s Parrot Pockets--the Ultimate Foraging TOY! The Ultimate experience for your bird while you’re away or there to watch them play.

The Texas Parrot Project 3511 Duncaster Dr. Missouri City, TX 77459 Website: www.texasparrot.org The Texas Parrot Project was born out of love, loss and facination. The loss of North America’s only indigenous parrot species, the Carolina Conure (Conuropsis carolinensis) was a painful reminder of how easily the beautiful things around us can disappear in a flash. Since the 1960’s the arrival and spread of the Monk Parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) and other psittacines (parrots) have once again given the gift of parrots to the Texas skies. Their introduction to the native landscape had been met with fear and mistrust by many ecological circles as well as industry, politics and aviculture. Much of this sentiment is based on little data and the Texas Parrot Project is commited to the understanding of these feisty newcomers and their real impact on the native ecology of Texas and people that surround them.
