Don't let his size fool you! RJ is a Mini Macaw with a whole lot of personality, plenty to say, and so much love to give!
RJ arrived at Rhode Island Parrot Rescue on May 21, 2025, alongside several other birds following the passing of their previous caretaker. Sadly, the birds had been living in poor conditions. RJ was one of 18 birds in the home, and we're so grateful we were able to give him and the others a fresh start.
Despite everything he's been through, he is an absolute sweetheart! He loves head scratches, enjoys spending time with people, and is more than happy to hang out on your shoulder while you work. Whether you're getting things done or simply relaxing, RJ would love to keep you company!
And did we mention he has quite the mouth on him?
RJ loves to mutter to himself and isn't afraid to throw in a few naughty words here and there! He also says "Hello," "Hi," and "Come here!" With RJ around, you're bound to have some entertaining conversations!
He has already experienced so much change in his life, and now we're hoping his next chapter will be his best one yet. He deserves a home filled with love, attention, enrichment, and someone who will appreciate his sweet, silly, and occasionally foul-mouthed personality!
RJ may be a little macaw, but he has an enormous amount of love to offer. All he's missing is someone to share it with.
Could RJ be your new best friend?
