Tango is another one of our hard to adopt parrots. He's been featured several times on this blog; most recently, here.
Last week, Tango got a new, larger cage. We also moved him over a few feet. Tango was not happy with this relocation! He was so agitated that we moved him back to his corner:
The reason Tango likes it so much here? It turns out he's quite the nosy fellow! He loves to be able to see in the back room. He watches the volunteers do laundry, chop up vegetables for the parrots, and perform other tasks.Tango has been with us, looking for a home, for over a year. He is very delightful, but also very demanding. He thinks he should be the center of attention, and will scream if he thinks he's being overlooked.
He also has a scissor beak. In the year that he's been with us, his beak has made significant progress, and we have hope that at some point in the future, he will no longer require beak trims. At the moment, however, he requires to have his beak trimmed approximately every six weeks -- this is something we can do at the Center or your vet can do it.
Tango is very loyal. He has a great sense of humor and is fun to be around. He is also very intense.
He's been looking for over a year for a home; if you think you might be able to provide one for him, stop by and meet him. Like most severe macaws, Tango has definite ideas of who he likes and who he doesn't (and there isn't much reason for his choices), so this is a case where he will need to pick his person!
