Public Outings with your parrot

Hey all!

I'd like to start taking this little lady out with me more and would love any advice from those who have experience with this! She's not flighted so I'm not worried about her taking off. I've taken her hiking on private property many times but I'd like to try some public places with her. Have you found that pet friendly places are ok with parrots? I'm hoping to do brunch with her 😅

Most importantly, how do you manage all of the poop? I'm nervous about her making a mess in public spaces. Any tricks for keeping you, your bird, and the places you travel clean?

Pollee says thank you in advance!

Calling all Omaha keepers!

I was wondering if anyone would be willing to let me know how you like working there? The zoo has such a fantastic reputation and lots of accolades, but sometimes those facilities still end up treating their keepers like garbage 🫤

I've applied for a position with the elephant department and would love to hear some candid opinions on the culture, what you think of the executive team and leadership, how are your vets, is there a lot of internal politicking, how are the professional development opportunities, or anything else you'd like to share.

I'd also appreciate hearing about what its like moving to and living in Omaha.

Thank you!
