Companion Bird Behaviour & Welfare  Education- Australia

‘Birds are extremely intelligent with high level psychological and physical requirements. They must be treated respectfully and with empathy by their carers’

Qualifications

Hello my name is Paris Yves Read and I am located in Melbourne, Australia.

I provide professional bird/parrot counselling advice to:

  • individual or groups of birds

  • school workshops

  • private workshops

I am a qualified and experienced Mental Health/Holistic Counsellor, Companion Bird Behaviourist & Companion Bird Communicator and Reiki Practitioner.

My ongoing studies have confirmed that behavioural analysis applied to children and adults is the same applied to birds- yes, that is right.

So imagine what would happen if children were treated the same way that most companion birds in Australia are treated e.g, neglected, abused, alone all day, hit at, screamed at?

Or imagine if human babies were stolen from mothers in hospital, the same way eggs are stolen from the female birds in the companion bird breeding industry?

Imagine…..

Birds require caring time, financial commitment and essential learning of bird behaviour education. All bird carers should be aware of this before they decide to include a bird into their family- to ensure a happy and healthy bird. Otherwise, the bird suffers a lonely, un-natural life and unethical life. Don’t you think birds deserve better than how most of them live, in Australia- in pet shops, private homes, breeder facilities.

Please contact me for any bird behaviour advice.

First session is free- $50phr thereafter per session.

What is Bird/Parrot Behaviour Education?

What is bird behaviour I hear you ask?

Well, the practice of bird behaviour has been around for too many years to count.

Schools and bird groups have practiced bird behaviour for decades, if not at least centuries. But it has been mainly wild birds whose behaviour has been observed and studied.

Behaviourial studies of Companion birds has been practiced formally for many years also- but mainly in countries other than Australia. Australia is slowly adopting and admitting to the idea that companion bird behaviour is THE essential initial aspect to understanding and caring for any companion bird.

Australia has been fortunate to have had visits and lectures by reputable Companion Bird behaviourists, such as Psychologist Dr Susan Friedman, Barbara Heidenreich, Pamela……..

In this fortunate time of the Internet and global, in a click we can access incredible professional bird behaviour information and professional webinars by expert animal behaviourists including Lara Joseph.

I have studied and continue to study with the above and many other great bird behaviourists, who similar to myself, dedicate their careers to educating the public and bird carers about the ‘psychology and behaviour’ of birds.
