Another great green macaw has been confiscated by local MINAET (Ministry of Environment, Energy and Technology) wildlife wardens and turned over to us, bringing the total number of great green macaws under our care to three.  In the past, this would have been something of a crisis situation due to inadequate cage space, but with the new flight cage complete, the birds will be enjoying plenty of room while still secure from predators. More details will follow regarding the story of these birds.  A celebration is planned for this week to mark putting the flight cage into service--having three of these large birds here for the occasion truly underscores the importance of this great new addition to Tierra Hermosa!

Pura Vida,

Kevin
