Charlotte, most commonly called “Char Char”, a vibrant Lilac-Crowned Amazon, has been a cherished member of our rescue family since 2004. His journey began at a breeder/store where, like many parrots, he was unfortunately fed a seed-only diet. Thankfully, his life took a turn for the better when he found his forever home with Maria and Brianna.
Since arriving, Charlotte has blossomed under their care. He’s embraced the full spectrum of enrichment we offer, from regular flight time that keeps his wings strong and his spirit soaring to a diverse and nutritious diet that has him feeling his best. No more boring seeds for this guy! He now enjoys a wide variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, and other parrot-appropriate foods.
Beyond enjoying the perks of a pampered parrot life, Charlotte plays an important role in educating children about parrots and their complex needs. He’s a fantastic ambassador for his species, helping young minds understand the importance of proper nutrition, mental stimulation, and the commitment required to care for these intelligent and long-lived birds. Charlotte’s story is a testament to the transformative power of rescue and the difference good care can make. He’s a happy and healthy bird, and we’re so thrilled to have him as part of our flock!
