Been thinking about adopting a rescue instead of buying from a breeder. Any experiences with rescue birds in Ontario? What should I expect in terms of behavioral challenges? Which rescue organizations do you recommend?

Totally normal, don't stress! Birds go through phases just like any other pet.

Couldn't agree more. This has been my experience as well.

If you're in Oshawa, check out the avian vet on Kennedy Rd. They're amazing with Senegal parrot specifically.
