About Sarah

My name is Sarah. For the past eleven years, I’ve built my professional life around birds — studying them, caring for them, training them, and helping the people who live with them understand their companions better. I’ve worked with birds ranging from tiny zebra finches to large macaws, in private homes, rescue settings, and aviculture contexts, and I can tell you with certainty that the more you understand birds, the more extraordinary they become.

How I Got Here

My background began in general animal behavior, but birds kept pulling me back. The combination of their intelligence, the complexity of their communication systems, the remarkable cognitive abilities of parrots, and the sheer diversity of the bird world made them endlessly interesting in a way that generalist work didn’t provide. After several years of broadening my knowledge across species and contexts, birds became my focus — and they’ve remained it.

Over the past decade, I’ve worked one-on-one with hundreds of bird owners navigating everything from basic care questions to complex behavioral problems. I’ve consulted with rescue organizations on rehoming and rehabilitation, helped breeders improve their practices, and spent countless hours simply observing birds and learning from what they show me. Every year I work with birds, I find something new to learn.

What This Site Is

BirdTakCare is the accumulated practical knowledge from that work — translated into clear, useful guidance that I wish had existed when I started. Everything here comes from experience: the protocols I describe are ones I’ve used successfully, the mistakes I warn about are ones I’ve watched happen, and the information I provide reflects current avian science and veterinary consensus rather than outdated pet store mythology.

My approach is always evidence-based and always bird-first. I care about birds as sentient animals with complex needs, not as decorative accessories. If I recommend something here, it’s because I’ve seen it work and because it genuinely serves the bird’s wellbeing.

For You
