Rolando
This is the very handsome Rolando, who barks like two Yorkies (in two distinctive dog voices) when the doorbell rings. Yes, he also talks! When the phone rings, he says, "Hello? Hello? Operator?" He sometimes announces, "I've got a BIG one!" He is an adopted bird, and he shares Lorrie's home.
These birds also live with Lorrie.

Dori was found in 2006 after he flew into the side of a house in Westchester. He suffered a concussion which resulted in a chronic twitch in his neck, so sadly he's unable to fly. The man who found him kept him in a cage in his back yard for a year before deciding to give up on him. Dori is a disabled, special needs Canary-winged Parakeet. He is only able to eat soft food. Dori makes the prettiest chirps and whistles to the sound of the vacuum cleaner! April named Dori after Ellen Degeneres' amnesia character from the movie "Finding Nemo".
Dori, naturalized Canary-winged Parakeet from a local wild flock in Westchester which is near LAX
Koa, Cape Parrot

Baby, African Meyers
The House Flock adopted Marley, a female Senegal, from Parrots First
Female Greenwing Macaw "Reyna" was adopted from Olive Branch Parrot Rescue by The House Flock in November 2009 when she was 25+ years old. Reyna does not talk but is highly intelligent. Many moons ago she held a job at the Rain Forest Cafe'!
Mott, wild-caught & imported from South America in the 1960s, is a Blue-fronted Amazon, age unknown. The House Flock adopted him from a retired coworker. Buddy is a naturalized Wagler's Conure that The House Flock adopted from Friends of Parrots Rescue & Adoption, age unknown. Buddy was found injured in Redondo Beach, California missing his tail, neck feathers and had a bite mark under his wing so it is assumed he was attacked by a predatory animal. He was unable to be returned to his wild flock due to a breathing issue similar to asthma in humans. Buddy and Mott are happily bonded with each other and have lots in common having been born and raised in the wild and ending up in captivity (rather sad, actually, but it's nice they have each other).
