Re: Will other birds harm an Amazon parrot living in our yard?

I would strongly recommend leaving this wild bird in the wild.  In the
southern California area there are numerous flocks of wild parrots living
completely self-sufficiently.  They will survive just fine through the
winter in that climate.  It is possible that a predator could hurt this
bird, but that's part of the life of a wild animal.  

I also suggest that you stop feeding this wild bird and allow him to make
his own way, hopefully back to a flock where he/she can be with his
friends, and have babies.  A parrot is much more likely to survive with a
group.

If you're interested in learning more, I recommend a movie called "The Wild Parrots of Telegraph
Hill" which tells the story of a wild flock of parrots living in San
Francisco.  The website of
The California Parrot Project will also tell you more about the many
flocks of wild parrots.

Keep watching those birds!
