For Jane and Max

August 23, 2009 by LuAnn Apple · View Comments 

Max our resident Pionus lost his top beak a few months back.

With loving care and balanced nutrients, Volunteer Extroidinaire Jane has given Max a chance for survival that otherwise would not have been possible. All her amazing efforts have given Max an extended life.

Now we need to give Jane back her life and provide a prosthetic beak for Max.
Any imput on this topic would be greatly appreciated.

The pictures attached are sad to view, but Max has a huge life force and desire to survive which, thanks to Jane, he has up to now. Please send any links if you know a source, and please donate to help provide the funds for Max to get a new beak.

All of us at M.A.R.S. WILL BE FOREVER GREATFULL. Max most of all.

Pirates and Parrots and M.A.R.S.

August 21, 2009 by LuAnn Apple · View Comments 

M.A.R.S. PARROT RESCUE, recently had a very interesting visitor.

His intentions at first we did not dare to question. His appearence was oh so fearsome, although a kind and gentle look in his eyes told us not to be afraid. Low and behold he said he was here to inquire about adopting a parrot, as his recently was lost in a storm named Bill, somewhere off the Bermuda coast.

Alas, his ship was damaged as well, so he informed us he had ample time to find just the right parrot before setting sail once again.
Who will he choose? This could be the first bird rescue paid for with gold coins or jewels!!! Arrrrrgggghhhh!!!!

Events at the Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary in Melbourne Beach, Florida

Mark your calenders!

On Saturday February 7th we will be having a show at the Aloha Pet & Bird Hospital in Indian Harbour Beach.

Our array of superstar birds will include Cuddles, Dakota and Clyde who singlehandedly give a whole new answer to the question “can birds talk?”!!!!!

Our in-house artists, also known as Kids Corner on MarsParrots.org, will be premiering their brand new artwork. Really fresh and orignal, it makes for great gifts and goes to a really good cause (the birds!).

On Sunday February 8th we will be doing a fundraiser at an art gallery called Art Gallery and Studio located in old downtown Melbourne on East New Haven.

We’re hoping to raise lots of money but if you can’t make it please consider a donation!

Cuddles, Dakota and Clyde hope to see you there!
