Interactive training tours three times a week (Thursday, Saturday and Sunday from 1:30 until 2:30 pm.) Parrot Partners Canada is a registered charity that specializes in the rehabilitation, training and adoption of parrots. We also educate the public on the plight of parrots both in our homes and in their natural habitats. Some of the parrot species in our care are threatened in their native habitats and during our tours we discuss the reasons and what we can do to help. Under the direction of our tour guides and trainers, participants help us maintain the socialization and training of our permanent residents as well as that of our adoptable parrots.
