Help MAARS Take Flight!
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.

Since the founding of MAARS in July 1999, almost 1500 unwanted parrots have come through our doors. More than 1400 birds have been successfully placed into permanent homes. We’ve consistently grown since then, all thanks to the helping hands of this amazing community!

MAARS’ core function is to care for our flock at our facility, The Landing. Our primary mission is to educate the public, people who already live with parrots, and the veterinary community about the issues that face captive parrots.
Our featured bird of the month for August is Yondu, an Indian Ringneck.
Yondu prefers to keep his distance from humans, but don’t think he’s not paying attention. From his vantage point in the free-flight room, he keeps a close eye on all activity, quick to sound the alarm if anything seems suspicious. His message is clear: this space belongs to the flock.

Last Day for our Featured July bird, Sam! Blind since a young age, he navigates the world in his own joyful way-dancing, tossing toys and bouncing with excitement at mealtime. Volunteers use gentle voices and clear cues to help him feel safe. Sam's independence, curiosity and flair for fun shine through every day. Sam is an Eleanora Cockatoo; a medium-size parrot whose costs for food, toys, and medicine are approximately $45 per month or $540 per year.
