Meet Sebastian

Meet Sebastian, a charming greenwing macaw. We don't know very much about Sebastian's past. His former owners didn't know much about him, either. They told us they were surrendering a scarlet macaw, so imagine our surprise when we met him when he was a greenwing! He also was in a cage that was way too small (more appropriate for a grey), filthy, and with no toys. His beak was overgrown by an inch and he hadn't been out of his cage in years.

It was Sebastian's first lucky day when he got surrendered to the Center; it will be his second lucky day when he finds the right home!We know his previous owners had him about 7 years. That could make him 8, or it could make him 40. We suspect he's closer to the younger end of the spectrum.

We're still getting to know him, but what we've found so far is delightful.

Isn't he a gorgeous bird?
