United States3 years ago - Good Information for Parrot People
I am new to the world of parrots and stumbled upon this podcast about positive reinforcement and enrichment for parrots. I have found it very informative and entertaining and plan on using the tidbits of info that relate to my newly adopted quaker parrot. I would recommend to anyone interested in parrots and animal behavior.

This program is one of the best programs I have seen for learning and caring for parrots. Barbara Heidenreich really does know what she is talking about. I have been to her workshops, have her videos, know her personally and know she is absolutely the best expert on training parrots and other wild animals. Goodness people...it's a FREE program!
