Advocacy 800+ Petition

For several weeks now, I've not been able to access this Blog. Now I have access but I cannot add photos; My "tag" is broken!!! On February 4, 2014 I started a Petition http://www.thepetitionsite.com/811/239/095/no-more-parrots/ in order to coax,urge, push, and or force the Refuge management to start complying with the Global Standards for Arboreal/Perching Bird Sanctuaries. My description is necessarily lacking the amount of detail that many people need before committing to the Petition. But without standing, credibility, or reputation in the avian and Oceanside communities, I must necessarily take great care to avoid libelist statements however true. That having been said I'm meeting people, through the petition who know the details for themselves. I'll add some photos here that provide some details if you look carefully. However, had I known when I started as a volunteer, what I know now, I'd have many more photos to substantiate and support what I've seen.

The only access to a bath, a spray bottle.

Home sweet home.

Also  blind.

Another "ground" dweller.

What a sad little creature!

Hungry for attention, even just a hand shake.
