Meet Sapphire, a pacific parrotlet. She was transferred to us from another humane society, so we don't know much about her history as we were not able to speak directly with her former owners.
What we do know is that she was caged with two budgies, who ganged up on her and were in the process of scalping her. Had they remained cagemates for much longer, Sapphire would have died. She is now almost completely healed -- you can still see a small scab on her head.
She is still a bit skittish and is still learning how to step up, but she is quite the delight! She really enjoys hanging out with people. Here, she'd flown up to land on the head of one of our volunteers:If you'd like to adopt Sapphire, stop by the Center and see if she might fit in well in your house.

You got my best sides in those pics! Thanks.
I'm trying to launch your career as a hand model or maybe top of the head model :)
Thanks for volunteering!
