My guest is Isabelle Zapata, the Learning Center Coordinator at the Free Flight Exotic Bird Sanctuary where we recorded this episode. She leads youth education programs where she enjoys sharing her passion for studying avian behavior and companion parrot husbandry. Outside of her role here, she continues to work with children as a public-school music teacher.
You will hear a number of exotic birds in the background and you can look forward to pictures of some of them on the podcast's Instagram - @lookingatbirdspodcast soon.
One change that has occurred since the recording of this episode is that the Free Flight Exotic Bird Sanctuary is once again open to the public! Please check out their website for more information - https://www.freeflightbirds.org/
