Welcome to Avian Enrichment! As we relaunch and grow this space, our goal is to build a vibrant, community-oriented hub powered by individuals and organizations dedicated to parrot health and welfare. We want this platform to be a shared workspace driven by your insights, ideas, experiences, and creativity.

Here is how you can get involved and help shape this site:

  • Weekly Featured Community Idea: Post your favorite foraging setup, toy concept, recipe, or enrichment activity on the avian enrichment Facebook page. Every Saturday, we will vote for one winning idea submitted by a community member or organization and feature it permanently here on the website Community Spotlight page, building an ever-growing library of creative ideas.

  • Share External Resources: If you run across helpful articles, blogs, or videos highlighting enrichment, foraging strategies, or nutritional ideas, email us at contactavianenrichment@gmail.com - We want to link and highlight the best resources across the web to keep our parrot community informed and inspired.

Whether you have a quick foraging hack, a full DIY project, or a favorite resource to share, we invite you to contribute and help us cultivate a thriving resource for bird enrichment together! 

As we grow and expand Avian Enrichment and its community focus we are so very happy to get to recognize these amazing contributions!

  • physical 250As caretakers of these marvelous creatures we must provide for their physical needs to the very best of our abilities. By consistently addressing all of the key areas outlined in our articles you will not only enhance your bird's quality of life but will also strengthen his relationship with you.

  • African Grey and Sun ConureParrots have been described as having the emotional equivalent of a 2 year old child. We wouldn't think of leaving a toddler locked alone in a room deprived of opportunities for social interaction, nurturing, intellectual challenge or guidance for several hours a day and expect them to develop into a healthy, happy and fully functioning beings. We also can't expect this of our parrots. As with children, parrots need a lot of patience, attention and nurturing guidance, as well as opportunities to learn and explore.

  • Hyacinth MacawRegardless of the fact your baby parrot may have been born in captivity, parrots are still instinctually hardwired to survive in the wild. Unlike dogs and cats who have been selectively bred and domesticated over several millennia, parrots have only been bred domestically for a few generations and therefore they are not that different (physically or psychologically) from their wild counterparts.

    Because parrots are driven by their instinctual needs they may behave in ways that sometimes makes life frustrating and difficult for both the bird and their caregivers.
