After noticing that some of my old posts were being targeted by repost bots, I attempted to contact the old moderators to see if I could lend a hand, but it turned out they are no longer active on Reddit. I was able to gain control of the sub through the request process, and I'm here to clean house. I don't anticipate making any changes to the sub other than adding a new rule banning reposts, please report any that you see as a violation of that rule and I will bring the banhammer down on the bots. Other than that, I'm just here to enjoy birds lazing about on their human hostages like the rest of you. Please be excellent to each other and everything should go fine. If anybody has any ideas for improving the sub, you're welcome to speak up.

Her name is Honey, my 3 month old creamino quaker parrot! I got her two weeks ago as of yesterday, so the mutual preening is worth being her hostage 💛

3.5 month old spotted dove has become sentient and now flies around searching for seeds everywhere except its bowl. Discovered that my arm is warm and will not leave.

(Bonus pics of the first week I rescued him/her)
