MAARS needs your help to create a new sanctuary that provides space for flight. Your support is vital for giving the birds an environment that can better meet their unique needs than the current location.
Our featured August bird, Yondu, is an Indian Ringneck Parrot-one of the world's most recognizable parrot species. Known for their striking colors, incredible intelligence, and impressive ability to mimic speech.
In the wild, they live in flocks, fly long distances each day, and spend hours foraging—behaviors that highlight just how active and intelligent these birds truly are.
Native range: Africa and the Indian subcontinent
Diet: Seeds, fruits, flowers, buds, berries, and cultivated crops
Lifespan: 25–35 years (sometimes longer in captivity)
