Meet Quork & Betsy

Before we can discuss a specific bird with you, we ask that you follow our adoption process. Some birds are in foster homes that may adopt them, many other birds are waiting for our help and are not yet posted in PetFinders. The adoption coordinator in your area will work with you to find the best home for each bird, and a species and personality that works best for your family too. We want to set everyone up for success, especially our parrots.

To get started, the adoption process includes completing our parrot match application and attending one of our core classes. You can find information about this process on our website at www.phoenixlanding.org/adopt.

QUORK and BETSY are best buddies. Quork is a scarlet macaw and Betsy is a military macaw. They first came to us in 2004 from an animal control confiscation, so their ages are unknown. They were adopted but returned to us when their adopter got cancer. We take lifetime responsibility for all birds that come to Phoenix Landing. We want them to stay together in their next home.

Most birds are relinquished because people don’t think they can give enough time and attention. However, having two birds is a way to ensure they have a social life and to take the pressure off of you. You shouldn’t expect to have a hands-on relationship with a pair like Quork and Betsy, however, most birds prefer to interact without a lot of touching. So these two are just to be enjoyed, and they are certainly entertaining! They are moved together on a PVC perch and enjoy lots of time in an aviary, which they so deserve!

AREAS OF OPERATION: Phoenix Landing serves only Maryland, Washington D.C., Virginia, North Carolina, and northeast Florida. We do not ship birds. However, everyone is welcome and encouraged to join us for our online events. Parrots are unique and they deserve us to be informed caretakers. There are also many past event recordings available which you may find helpful. All event information can be found at www.phoenixlanding.org/events
