Birds are so complex, and they need so much genuine love and care. People make jokes about how it takes a special type of person to have a bird, and I think that’s especially true for the person running Majestic Wings. Stinky (now Sir Lancelot) was, for over 1/4 of my life, my entire life. Words cannot describe what a HUGE portion of my adolescence was spent waking up to eating breakfast with him and going to sleep after having dinner with him. I tried EVERYTHING to keep him. I drove from Clemson to Myrtle Beach almost every weekend to see him when I went to college, made my dad put me on FaceTime with him to sing his favorite songs every day, and made copies of my house key and paid friends to play with him so I knew he had the care he deserved. It finally got to a point that I realized I couldn’t ask him to wait for me anymore and it was unfair to him to keep holding on to my dream of taking him with me into my adult life. Majestic Wings Rescue took him in without question and gave him a real shot at being happy again. I have seen bits and pieces of what his life looks like with his new mom, and I am crying right now typing out the words “He finally has someone who can love him exactly how he deserves.” Audrey makes miracles happen for these birds. I have seen what her rescue looks like, and I cannot stress enough what an angel she is to these animals. They genuinely eat better than I do, homecooked (chopped lol) meals every day, and you can tell she cares about exactly what their story is before she sees them and especially exactly where they’re going after. It has been so, so hard coming to terms with my inability to be His Person even now, but when I drove away from Majestic Wings that day I felt peace through the tears. Audrey gave me, Stinky, and his new mom all a sense of comfort and peace. I cannot thank her enough. She is probably the most knowledgeable, dedicated, and kindhearted bird rescuer I could find.

I escorted my 89 yo sister and her 75 yo friend to visit the birds.They were amazed at the cleanliness of the Avery and the house. They had plenty oooos and ohs, couldn't believe that many birds in one aviary and be so nice and clean. All the beautiful birds, they were very clean. Beautiful feathers on them including the ones that pluck. They were made to feel wanted, were told about all the birds they had questions about. That we will drop everything and go to the rescue, like paw patrols.

Thank God for people like Audrey!! Due to very unfortunate life circumstances, we were devastatingly forced to rehome our sun conure Marley and his two companion parakeets. The knowledge, compassion and dedication for Audrey's love of birds goes unmatched!! She sends us pictures and videos which really helps us with the pain in our hearts and knowing he has the best care possible! It really does take a special person to dedicate their whole lives to take in and care for the animals that people can no longer care for. Please help Audrey continue her dedication through donations!! Like extensions of love, donations are THEE way that we can help her continue to care for the birds. Thank you soooo much for your love and kindness Audrey!!

When we made the difficult decision to rehome Ellie our blue front Amazon, she needed more attention than we were able to give her at this time. I wanted her to have constant interaction and be happy. I researched different rescues and called Audrey. She was the sweetest and most understanding woman. After she agreed to accept Ellie and we drove her to Majestic Wings , from the first moment we could tell we made the right decision. Her compassion and love for her birds was amazing. I was so impressed with how healthy her birds were their colors were so vibrant and not a feather out of place. I am confident Ellie is going to love all the attention and bird friends she will meet. On the last update from Audrey she was already communicating with the other Amazons. If I didn’t live so far away I would come often to visit and help her care for her beautiful birds.

I was helping a friend rehome a bird that belong to his late father. Majestic Wings was helpful with suggestions and information and ultimately with being able to take him in. Amazingly the perfect family came along very quickly and he ended up in the perfect home. Audrey was great with communication and updates, which gave us great peace of mind. I visited the rescue and was extremely impressed with the facility and quality of care being provided. Rescue is hard work takes time, compassion, and certainly money. Donations to Majestic Wings are well worth it!

In 1989 I adopted a 1 month old Red Bellied Senegal Parrot whom I named Sinbad He was my buddy for over 34 years. Never had any health issues except minor cataracts. As he got older no amount of attention was enough for him. He would continuously scream and it was no longer a peaceful home. We wondered if perhaps he needed to be with other birds in a sanctuary when a friend of ours told us about her friend Audrey with Majestic Wings Rescue. After communicating with Audrey, I knew that Sinbad would be in exceptional hands with her experience and love of birds!
We made the trip and was blown away by the complexity of her sanctuary. You could tell immediately that her birds are her passion. Since Sinbad has been there, Audrey reports that he has never screamed! That tells me we made the right decision. Audrey will occasionally update me on his wellbeing and has promised, because of his age, that it will be his forever home. This was one of the hardest decisions we have had to make but am happy that it was the right one. Thank you, Audrey, for making room and for loving Sinbad!

We had to surrender our 3 birds due to health reasons. They were part of our family for over 25 yrs and it was one of the hardest things to do. Audrey and her team were the kindest and most understanding people I have met in a long time. Just talking with her and I knew they were going to be taken care of and loved. That meant so much! They came and picked them up and you could immediately see the love she had for birds. Knowing that they have a good life means so much. I would recommend Majestic Wings to anyone that is looking to rehome or give a home to one of these precious birds. Audrey is an angel!!!

Audrey is experienced, caring, and will work with you to do what’s best for you and your bird. I surrendered two birds to her and when we dropped them off, it was clean, organized, and the birds had music playing for them. She was caring and for a while I wanted to get one of the birds back when I was on my feet but her stable hand fell in love with her and I let her go to her❤️ it took a lot to rehome them but meeting Audrey made it so much easier and I know in my heart that this was the best thing to happen for both of the birds. Personally I know no one better or more qualified to do what she does. Thank you Majestic Wings Rescue!!

Audrey was so kind and helpful with the rehoming of our cockatoo, Shelia. Shelia was my daughter’s girl for over 10 years. Unfortunately, after my daughter left for college, Shelia was lost without her person and started biting and fussing. We knew Shelia was unhappy. Audrey kindly offered to take Shelia and find her an amazing new home where Shelia could pick her person. I know Shelia is in good hands now and happy with her new situation. Shelia even has a bigger cage now and is eating an incredible diet that she didn’t get with us, despite our best efforts. Audrey is dedicated, knowledgeable, honest and kind. This is a rescue truly worthy of donations and attention.

Today we picked up our second rescue from Majestic Wings. The first was our African Grey, Cocky. He's a doll. When we were picking up Cocky, we saw a lovely female Eclectus, Ruby. Audrey cautioned us she might bite. My husband opened her door and she jumped out onto his hand and started giving him kisses. Ruby found her Prince Charming. We couldn't take both. We went home with our beautiful Grey and kept Audrey up to date with his progress. We couldn't stop asking how Ruby was doing. She wasn't letting anyone else near her. Needless to say, we had to have her. Picked her up today and couldn't be happier. She literally jumped out of her cage and walked across the floor to to get to my husband. When we got her in the cage on the front seat, she was actually smiling. Audrey knew they were meant for each other. If you ever want a bird, you have to contact Audrey at Majestic Wings Rescue. She knows what she's doing and her facility is excellent. We are running out of room or we'd be getting more. Thanks, Audrey. We love you.

I first visited Majestic Wings a couple of years ago and was very impressed on how well the birds were being cared for and with overall cleanliness. Having 7 birds myself, I know this challenge pretty well. I was very happy with how Ms. Audrey Musso kept my conures when I was out of town for over a week. And, I couldn’t help but adopt a lovely Sun Conure which had been surrendered to Majestic Wings. He is the best bird ever.

We had "Blue Ridge", a Blue and Gold Macaw in our office/shop for many years. The owner of the company developed health issues and was unable to care for "Blue" in the manner she needed to be cared for. There was very little socialization for a number of years. We called around to several bird sanctuaries and Majestic Wings Rescue was the only one to respond and the furthest away. Audrey drove the two+ hours to meet "Blue" and we knew she was a perfect fit. We surrendered "Blue" to Majestic Wings Rescue and said our good-byes. Since then Audrey has kept us updated on "Blue" through pictures and status' on vet visits and progress. The change in "Blue" is unbelievable. She is thriving at Majestic Wings and it is obvious from pictures that she is at peace and loving every minute there. I can't thank Majestic Wings enough for giving "Blue" a second chance at an amazing life. I am so fortunate that Audrey was the only one to respond (and immediately) when we were looking for a rescue/sanctuary for "Blue Ridge". Majestic Wings Rescue is BEYOND awesome.

I adopt two birds from majestic wings rescue. My mother got sick and heartbreakingly I had to return the birds. I took her for her word that she would not sell them again and that they would be in sanctuary. Three weeks later she sold them and not only that she split them up.
That is not how a rescue works especially claiming to be a nonprofit. Beware!!!

Nanda and her husband Jeff sold these two birds back to our rescue on January 30th. At no time did they ask for sanctuary or boarding status which requires a contract and monthly care payments. I observed the umbrella in question for 8 weeks before deciding he needed more one on one. Her husband signed a bill of sale therefore relinquishing any and all rights.

Audrey is so kind, caring and takes such great care of all the parrots at Majestic wing rescue. Including even some wild baby birds that fell out of nest with no momma bird around. Audrey stepped up with such a kind heart and did a great job raising them with love. She is very knowledgeable , gives them nutritious food, clean environment and will seek vet care as needed which is so costly.

It takes a lot of commitment, time and hard work to care for this many birds. Parrots are the most misunderstood pet. Because of their bad behavior like screeching loud and biting, not to mention the endless clean up, many people don't realize what they got themselves into and can no longer take care of them properly. Some end up in horrible isolated places like a garage, basement , warehouse, cage out in backyard, never getting attention or stimulus. The one common denominator with most pet birds is a cage. Confinement hurts. Boredom sets in and they can become depressed, aggressive, pluck their feathers and sometimes even go insane. Birds were meant to fly, but pet parrots rarely get that opportunity. Audrey recognizes this with big flight cages and how important it is for them to have enrichments. She not only gives them toys to play, but even bakes nutritious treats. She manages to pay attention to each and every one. I admire her so much and we share the same love and passion for parrots. thank you for caring and giving yourself to these birds. I don't know where they would be if it wasn't for you.

Had a wonderful experience with Audrey! The living space of the birds is clean and each bird has there own roomy space. The cages are clean and food and water bowls are clean as well. Audrey let my family spend time with each bird to see who was a great fit for our family. The outside aviary is wonder for the birds. Ultimately the bird picked my husband and we adopted. Fees are reasonable and contract acceptable. When we adopt again we will definitely be back to see Audrey!!!

All the negative stories about Audrey not putting the Birds first is a lie. Audrey is the best person to all of her rescues. She takes them to the vet when they need to go gives them their meds when the vet prescribes it. Feeds them Fresh fruits and veggies. She keeps the Avery very clean, has toys for them all to play with. Puts them outside for their Vit D . She is very loving to them. All of the birds are happy they talk sing and the ones that were picking their feathers when she rescued them are starting to get them back. The ones that could not be handled are letting her hold and live them. Majestic Wings Rescue is the only place I would go for adoption of a bird. Audrey drives Two hours to a great vet for her birds. That shows how much she loves and care for all her Rescues. I would definitely recommend Audrey at Majestic Wings to take care of neglected and abused birds to give them what they need love and what ever else to get them ready to be adopted. I have had the privilege of getting to know her and all the birds that she takes care of. Thank you Audrey for caring so much for the Poor Babies when they come to you and helping them back to Health and Happy again where they can be adopted to a good home

We just recently lost our parakeet after owning him for five and a half years, and I needed a new ESA to train. This was the first place we went to and I’m so glad we did. The process was quick, Audrey was an absolute darling, and she helped us through every step of the adoption. We ended up only spending about an hour or so there and got a same-day adoption completed in time for my roomie to go to work. She even went as far and beyond to offer us the cage that baby Ollie came with, and her toys, blanket, and traveler cage. She gave us as much information as she could about Ollie and the birds we saw around the place seemed healthy and happy! Ollie settled in quick today and is already drowning us in kisses and cuddles. I’ll never forget Audrey’s kindness; because of her, our family feels complete again. I’m not really sure what the other reviews are about, since the adoption fee + cage and accessories altogether was pretty cheap, but our experience was honestly wonderful. She seems to be genuinely interested in her fosters finding forever and happy homes, and that to me is the best part about the entire experience. Thank you for helping us through this difficult chapter in our lives. :)

I would like to share my story of receiving 2 beautiful boy from Audrey and her rescue. Few months ago my husband and myself visited Majestic Wings. The facility was clean and the birds all appeared to be happy and healthy. Corkie and Peaches both came to us showing unconditional love and affection. We knew immediately it was love at first sight. Audrey told of us the life story of both the birds, and if you scroll down you will see the comment of the family that surrendered Corkie. As she tells us about Corkies story I am looking at this beautiful creature cuddling up tight to me, wondering how this boy could of held such hostility. Audrey worked with Corkie daily to bring him out of his anger stage and to the loving young man he is today. After leaving the rescue we discussed the birds to make sure my husband and myself were both on the same mindset. After all taking on 2 cockatoos is a huge commitment and a life long dedication.
I want to further say that Audrey never sold us the birds. Rather she asked that we make a donation to the rescue and when we are able to make donations of food or money. The only thing we did buy was Peach's cage.
I tried several times prior to write a review but was unable to, perhaps because I was using my phone and not a computer. I felt obliged to try today, because Audrey has had an unfortunate situation arise in which a lady who breeds birds is withholding several of Audrey's birds. The reason why this person is holding the birds and refusing to allow Audrey access to get them, I can only be speculation on my part. But I do know that several of her birds are missing and I was there when she stopped Audrey from getting her birds.
The only ones who are suffering are the birds. I hope that this lady will allow Audrey to get her birds and let their differences play out in the courts.

I lost my cockatoo and had so much bird stuff that I wanted to donate to a sanctuary. It took awhile to find anything remotely close, but when I found and went to visit Audrey I was shocked at the sheer size of her operation. I didn't stay long, but what I saw touched me deeply.
It seemed that she does this beyond full-time and she gives love and care to many, many birds. I met some older birds, some with health issues. Audrey knew every name, every story.
The place is clean and that's *hard* with birds. It's as spacious as could be expected. The birds have toys and enrichment, a flock if they want it and they have her respect, her knowledge and experience and her whole heart.
This is a labor of love and, should I ever be able to have another bird in my life, I'll go to Audrey.

My family and I lived on an animal sanctuary from the time I was 6 until my adulthood. My parents managed the sanctuary for retired racehorses, abandoned and abused dogs, cats, and even a few parrots. In my adulthood, I have worked 16 years as a veterinary technician and currently own a pet sitting business. I have, over my lifetime, seen parrots in some of the best and unfortunately, some of the worst conditions. I had the pleasure of meeting Audrey and her beautiful birds recently. She was very happy to welcome me in to see her place and I have to say, I was immediately impressed. She has an entire building dedicated to housing her birds, and each of them receives time outdoors in a shaded, open air, parrot re-enforced enclosure. She knows who gets along with whom so they are allowed to socialize in small groups. Additionally, every parrot has their own personal space, although a few prefer to share with their partners, in clean roomy cages where they sleep for the night. The "bird building" is amazingly clean, not an easy feat with big birds! She makes their meals by hand twice a day. They get a colorful array of fresh fruits and vegetables, in addition to a complete parrot preparation diet. There are enrichment toys EVERYWHERE to keep them entertained. All of her birds look to be in excellent health, bright-eyed, engaged, and happy (Even Oscar, who was being quite judgemental of me being in his space and talking with his mom!) She tells of each birds story and personality as if she was doting on her own children. Some of their stories are heartbreaking, but here, these birds are finally able to live large! The parrots come from backgrounds that have taught them not to trust people, but when Audrey walks in the room, you can tell they all trust her beyond measure. That's something that can only be accomplished with time, quality care, dedication, and a very loving heart. Her work has paid off. I am so glad to meet someone so dedicated to help animals where humans often fail them. Audrey is the best crazy bird lady I have met and deserves all the support she can get to keep her dream, and her beautiful birds, alive and well!

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Audrey for years, she is and always has been an extremely caring and loving person. It’s just those traits that make her “baby” Majestic Wings so special. These are not just “birds” to Audrey but family, I know they mean more to Audrey than life itself. Her “babies” couldn’t be in better hands and I’m proud to call such a selfless person my friend.

Dedication, selflessness, devotion, unconditional love and the the upmost care are only a few of the things that come to mind when I think of Audrey and her flock.

Audrey ensures to spend the time required with each of her birds to gain the trust and knowledge for their individual needs. Because of this I would never hesitate to recommend Audrey and Majestic Wings.

If you are looking for a true rescue look no further, you've found the right home! Please consider helping Majestic Wings Rescue as they rely solely on your donations. I promise you, once you meet, visit and see the love, care and bond you'll never have a doubt you made the right decision!

I have visited this Avery and I must admit that these birds live better than me! They have a home that is loving, caring and fun. Each of these birds receive daily attention, love and care, and there is not a single day where any of this flock go without.

I personally I'm afraid of birds and would never own one, However if I did and I ever needed to re home them I would not hesitate to contact Majestic wings rescue. The love, care, and attention that this flock receives is unlike anything I've ever seen before.

With that being said, I do not hesitate giving Majestic wings rescue a 5 star rating.

Now I would love to share this beautiful charity. Audrey Musso who runs this charity gives sacrificially to make sure that each and every rescue is cared for in the best way possible. She does this with very little money as she is disabled. She's very knowledgeable about birds and cares a great deal okay. I always sent her the feathers that my birds molt to help her make ends meet I cannot tell you what a beautiful person that she is inside and out,

Majestic Wings is a wonderful rescue that has taken in birds that others cannot take care of. Audrey does a wonderful job of taking care of them, all of which are very healthy, and fed the best diets. She has spent many dollars of her own monies to make sure they are properly taken care of. They are all very loved. She is a legitimate rescue and she needs all the funding that she can get, to help the birds. She does rely on donations to keep the rescue going, and some people who have never met her, write terrible things so that prople will not donate. All of which are untrue. The bird world does attract some very irrational people who do not wish to see others succeed in their rescues. This is very unfortunate, and sad, especially when Majestic Wings goes above and beyond to take care of all the birds. I personally know Audrey and she has a heart of gold and will do anything for her birds.

Audrey (the owner) is a fantastic, kind hearted women who has worked her whole life to enhance the lives of parrots who need a second chance. She provides the very best love and care a parrot could dream of. I'm so glad I was able to cross paths with such a kind hearted soul.

Just jack, you obviously have no idea of how non profits work! Every single non profit organisation works on donations. A Sanctuary does not adopt out their birds, a rescue does. How do I know this? Because I also have a parrot sanctuary. I do not adopt out my birds because a lot of them have come from abusive situations or their previous owners have specifically placed their birds with me on the understanding that they will not be adopted out. If you had read any of Audrey's posts properly she states that the birds were moved into the house as soon as there was a problem with her ac. I am so sick of people bashing her. She does her very best for the birds in her care, like all of us rescue people do. Her birds are in excellent condition and dont make any comments about Oscar. He was hurt in an altercation with another macaw. It happens when you have birds together, in a sanctuary or not. It has happened to my birds. Oscars beak is totally healed and he had the best of medical care at the time. Audrey, please ignore these idiots, (Parrot Posse) people included!!! They are not worth your time or energy. You do a wonderful job caring for your birds. It is not easy. I know. I live it every day!

Majestic Wings Rescue is an amazing resource for birds in need.

I have known the caregiver, Audrey, for almost 8 years. Although I consider her a friend and confidante, I have seen her take a bird from near certain death to thriving and healing, able to live a healthy life.

Many people whom purchase these very beautiful unique birds do not realize how much of a lifetime investment they are. They let illness and injury fester until it is sometimes too late. But there is hope. There is Majestic Wings Rescue.

I have found there are bird owners whom feel they are experts and there couldn't possibly be financial assistance or donations needed for this rescue service. They are so wrong.

It is a sad truth that avian care, treatment and maintenance is very expensive.

I am thankful for people like Audrey and organizations like Majestic Wings Rescue that have no financial gain to be made. Their expertise and dedication to awareness and proper care of these living creatures is a gift.

With there being such a growing need, I wish there were more nonprofit organizations like Majestic Wings Rescue throughout the United States.

Audrey Brigham is a Facebook friend I have been following. She cares for large birds who have their own "room." Those birds are well cared for. Audrey has shared some recipe ideas with me that I will use on my own birds. Audrey's heart is big as all outdoors, but she needs help to care for her beloved birds. I make a monthly contribution, and I am hoping others will follow suit so she can continue to house and feed the birds she holds so dear.

Because of medical issues I found that I had to rehome my Cockatoo, Charlie. I found what I was hoping would be a good home for him but the new owner found they couldn't keep Charlie. She knew Audrey and since I couldn't take Charlie back I entrusted him to Audrey. It is the best decision that could have been made. He is so well taken care of and I know she always does what is best for the birds in her care. Thank you Audrey and much love to Charlie.

I'm a donor and a client served. Audrey stepped in when no one else would. Our 5 yr old Umbrella developed severe hormonal behavior issues. Our avian vet suggested sanctuary or euthanasia. Corkie had the potential for love and affection, but not in a home with a family. Audrey took him in and very shortly had him integrated with the other birds in the aviary. He loves the outdoor aviary and has special friends. Audrey works tirelessly to provide a clean environment, healthy foods, and enriching toys and activities. That's why I chose to become a donor as well.

I'm giving this nonprofit five stars because of the genuine caring that Audrey gives her birds. One only has to visit the rescue to see that she is an honest, upfront caregiver. She cares for the animals like they are the valuable creatures they are. Speaking of value, she provides a valuable service to the community that is lacking except from individual-based non-profit organizations that are not government supported as the humane society is, yet she does not turn away an animal in need.

There is an inside and outside aviary, Audrey is knowledgeable with birds, and drives hours to take them to an avian vet because there is not one close by to her. If you are thinking of using her services or donating, I implore you to ask contact her with questions or concerns you have. She is very candid.

I didn't have to leave a bird with Majestic Wings Rescue (and Audrey), but because of circumstances beyond my control, both Audrey and I felt that he would be better off with her. She graciously took in my little green fellow, and he is much happier with her. I am grateful for her care of him. While I was at the Rescue, I got to tour the facility and meet the other birds living there. I liked the inside and outside aviary. The birds were happy and well-taken care of. I am eternally grateful for the care that this organization and Audrey provide for the needy animals in residence.

This is Oscar he is recovering from a bite from another Macaw that almost cost Oscar his top beak. The accident was January 27th 2017, it has cost over 4,000.00 to reair him so far in vet fees and surgical fees. Mostly all raised through donations. As a parrot rescue there are so many of us that need financial and supplies support to continue to take in and care for these special babies.
