## FAQs
### What does a parrot sponsorship pay for?
Aviary care and flock companionship for one rescued parrot for a month — £40. A flight-aviary week (£15) or a week of fresh food (£8) can be given one-off.

### Why do so many parrots need rescuing?
Parrots commonly live 40–60 years and need constant company — far longer and more demanding than most owners expect. Rescued birds arrive plucked, bored and alone; flock life is the cure.
