Customer Reviews

Essential
For anyone owning parrots, I would suggest that this reference book should appear on the bookshelf, even if it is the only text on parrots there.
Comprehensive, beautifully-illustrated and well-written, I have bought not only my own copy but further copies as well-appreciated presents for fellow parrot slaves.
