Why We Went to Peru (and How You Can Help Save Wild Parrots)

We just returned from an incredible journey to Peru, where we got to see firsthand what wild parrots are facing — and how something as simple as a nest box can make a huge difference.

In this video, we share moments from our trip, what we learned about parrot conservation in the Amazon, and why protecting nesting habitat matters so much. We also talk about how you — yes you — can be part of this work in a real, meaningful way.

🦜 Why Nest Boxes Matter

Wild parrots in the Amazon face shrinking habitat and fewer safe nesting sites — and that’s where these nest boxes come in. They’re a simple, proven conservation tool that gives parrots places to raise their young and keep populations stable.

We got to see these boxes in action on the ground, and it was eye-opening to witness how much they’re helping families of macaws thrive.

🙌 How You Can Help

If you’ve ever wondered how you can support parrots in the wild, sponsoring a nest box is one of the most direct ways to contribute. Each box provides a safe place for macaws to nest and raise chicks — and every sponsorship helps protect Amazonian biodiversity.
