Hi everyone! I recently adopted a rescue Senegal parrot from a shelter near Oshawa. Their name is Captain (the shelter named them but it stuck). They're a bit shy and don't trust easily — no idea what their previous situation was. I want to give them the absolute best life possible. Any tips for helping a rescue bird settle in and learn to trust again?

I got mine from Global Pet Foods in Brampton. Great selection and the staff actually knows about birds.
