Northern Parrots Blog: June 2015

We had so many superb entries for our recent short story competition and it was extremely difficult to decide first place. But there can only be one winner. And we're delighted to announce our winning entry is Parrot Line by Sara Houston, who wins 100 pounds to spend with us at Northern Parrots. Enjoy! She also sent us the gorgeous picture of her Senegal Scout.
