Great video, I have a parrot and wish he could go back in the wild, but I know he cant. I try to keep him as happy as possible(I take him out like 4hours a day) and try to keep him happy.
Excellent! Very nicely done video. In my opinion, this uses just the right amount of footage showing trapped birds to generate an effective message. I have been overly sensitive in the past to the harsher photos (the raw in your face mortality rate associated with trapping is pretty hard for some of us). Thank you WPT. Great use of media. My year end contribution is coming.
Wow, Msjennwren, thank you so much for the positive feedback - it's always a delicate balance sorting out how to best use this imagery to help the parrots - too little and you don't get people's attention, too much and it can seem exploitative. We also VERYmuch appreciate your imminent year and contribution, and look forward to using your support to Protect the Parrots! Thank you very much indeed, WPT
