About This Bird

Buddy and Holly are a very bonded pair of Blue and Gold Macaws. As former residents of the World Parrot Refuge, we know nothing of their history.

But we have come to know their personalities well. It is likely that both of them are in their twilight years. Buddy can be feisty and is very protective of Holly. He has cataracts and arthritis, however, so his defense of her eases off the longer he is out of their cage – and running out of steam! Holly is sweet and very easy to handle when she is away from Buddy. Together they are a united force to be reckoned with! Holly has heart trouble, for which she gets medication twice a day. Like Buddy, her stamina is limited.

Buddy and Holly would not be demanding roommates. They need good food, a clean cage, occasional vet visits, and time to wander about on the floor for exercise and out time. In return they would give you some spunky attitude – at least until they get tired, which doesn’t take long – absolute joy in any pampering you can provide, and the satisfaction of knowing you are helping these gorgeous seniors live out their lives surrounded by love. Seems like a pretty good deal.
