After purchasing just about every Amazon Parrot book out there and being disappointed, I found this one. Instead of pretty photos and general narrative fluff, this book has good solid information for anyone interested in the species. Thank you.

I'm considering buying an amazon parrot. I don't know what to expect. If you own one, can you give me some ideas eg. is it alot of work? do you enjoy the parrot? would you do it again? etc.


4 out of 5 stars Good reading for anyone considering owning an amazone parrot   July 26, 1996

A fairly comprehensive description of the behavior and lifestyle of amazone parrots. Its a good owner's handbook for owning one of these exotic birds. A must reading for anyone considering owning an amazone parrot. Supported with pictures


2 out of 5 stars Disappointing and outdated; wonderful pictures though!   September 25, 2000

As a new Amazon owner I was looking for a species-specific book that would give me detailed information about my blue-front. Unfortunately this book seemed superficial, simplistic, and somewhat out-dated (with some information actually contrary to what is widely recommended now). It has some wonderful pictures, and fragments of useful species information, but overall I think there are better general care books available (certainly more detailed), and this book's Amazon-specific information was sketchy.


2 out of 5 stars I wouldn't recommend this book for newbie owners of parrots   February 18, 1999

Not enough information provided. Suggest investing in a better book with more details
