On Wednesday, August 9th we are so pleased to have Sylvia Skidmore as our speaker. Over 25 years ago Sylvia was given a gorgeous, but crooked baby Congo African Grey parrot. His name is Winkie, and he started her love of "less than perfect" parrots. There were 16 in her flock for many years, and became her teachers. Sylvia found ways to work with each bird's special needs, allowing them to thrive.
Sylvia brought her special needs birds to Americas's Family Pet Expo for over 20 years. She showed that birds with severe handicaps, medical conditions, and age can live long happy lives. She will be bringing her birds, along with cage set-ups to our meeting. Sylvia will be talking about her birds and will answer questions on how to care for birds with special needs.
Please come early and welcome Sylvia and help us set up and join or renew your memberships!
