Avian behaviour, the essentials (for veterinary nurses)

With the increased ownership of intelligent birds, animal care professionals are being sought after far more frequently to assist in dealing with troublesome parrots. From screaming to biting and feather plucking, our avian friends are the victims of numerous physical and mental troubles due to well meaning owners not providing the correct environment for their bird. As a result in many birds being given up for adoption and fall victim euthanasia as a result of their issues. With some relatively simple changes, we can better manage our avian friends. Bird behaviour - not as complicated as you might think.
