Meet Charlie!

Charlie lives with Steve and Georgina in the UK.

He is a great little character who loves nothing more than getting out and about and exploring in the house.

He loves the kitchen and showering ‘occasionally’ on top of his favourite bottle.

Charlie likes keeping an eye on passers by as he looks out of the window.

Charlie is 2 years old and has lots of toys including his favourite glitter ball. He is also a talented footballer and smooth talker with quite an extensive vocabulary. His latest phrase is “I’m a tiger.”

You can find more pictures (and videos!) of Charlie on his facebook page, Charlie Budgie Superstar.

Meet Charlie!

Charlie is an Eclectus Parrot who was rescued by Rebecca Blagg, a coordinater of the Safe Haven parrot rescue centre in Nottinghamshire. His former owners had abused him to the point of starvation (he was plucking out his own feathers and eating them to survive). He was in such dire condition, the veterinarian suggested the most humane thing to do would be to put him down. Mrs. Blagg refused to give up on him, and took him home to nurse him back to heath.

Mrs. Blagg knitted him sweaters in several colors to keep him warm. The wing holes are extra large so that they don’t restrict movement.

“The first summer after we had him it was red hot and I thought he was going to melt with his woolly on. I took it off and he started to go bonkers. I put it back on and he just calmed down straight away!”

Charlie is doing well now – and still likes to wear his sweaters.
