Are Named ; “Tarzan” &” Jane”
Also known
as Bozo & Goldie.
Goldie “Jane” ,is on the
left side of the photo( A Blue & Gold Macaw) that was taken while
fruits and veggies where being prepared for all the birds in the sanctuary.
She was purchased at the Los
Angles Bird show in November of 1991 at the young age of three months.
Her new mate, “Bozo “aka
“Tarzan (A Brazilian Scarlet Macaw) on the right side of this photo
m was also purchased at the Los Angles Bird show at the age of 6 months.
Both birds where selected
& purchased by the founder & Co founder William M. Driggins
& Christopher J. Driggins.
His first core intention of
this purchase was to hope these opposite sexed set of birds would bond
and breed an exotic highbred Name a “Catalina Macaw”.
Until Christopher started
to realize his dream would jus become part of the already over blown
population of exotic birds that in America that where in most cases
the birds out live their owners.
At this large bird show, with
over ten thousand birds. Christopher noticed a large amount of handicapped
and special needs birds that sparked his interest. He had already had
his first rescue of “Caesar” a Goffin Cockatoo.
And while at the bird show
he and his father purchased special needs elderly Umbrella Cockatoo.
Noticing, and understanding that the handicap birds would need special
housing, perches and toys.
He began a small rescue for
elderly & handicapped birds.
Not to mention special perches
& specialized arranged toys for their exercise. This touched him
and he discovered a special need to sanctuary these special needs birds
and elderly birds.
So back in the early 1990’s
Christopher Driggins had his heart touched by a broken feather.
