Meet Nui
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.
Nui is a Mitred conure, sometimes known as cherry-headed conures. This species was made famous by the book and movie about the Parrots of Telegraph Hill.
Nui came to us from a shelter in NC, because someone had just left him in their yard. Shelters are not the easiest places for birds, so we're glad we could help fairly quickly. Nui has his wellness vet visit and is doing great.
He's learning to eat healthy food (whole foods, Nutri-berries, pellets) instead of the yucky seed that was in his cage. He grows more comfortable and expressive day by day. While still leery of humans in his personal space, he is super food motivated which is great for training. Nui is sweet overall if you'll respect his comfort zones, and just wants to hang out outside the cage and play with toys.
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
