(*) indicates those classes that satisfy our adoption requirements such as No Place Like Home, Did You Know, Things I Wish I'd Known, A Parrot's Point of View, or The Contented Companion. These are comprehensive care seminars, one of which is recommended for all adopters.
(**) The behavior workshops are especially important for those adopting the larger parrots, but are highly recommended for everyone who aspires to a positive relationship with their birds, from parakeets to macaws.
