A day in the field at Fundación Loros brought Corina and Carlos together for a full round of feeding, monitoring, and observation of birds currently undergoing rehabilitation. Inside the aviaries, three blue-headed parrots (*Pionus menstruus*) drew their attention, as did a flock of fifteen to twenty Amazonian parrots (*Amazona* sp.), each bearing an identification band — B214, B60, B05, among others. The birds moved through their routines with a quiet naturalness: a bonded pair keeping close to one another, one individual settled into the posture of a nest-tender, others resting together in loose companionship, and in aviary #2, a single parrot lifting its voice in song. Later, Corina and Carlos made their way to the sector of Conopany, where they set out trays of fresh fruit for birds flying free — an offering placed without a word, without a glance held too long, in keeping with the protocol of non-contact and silence that governs all interaction with birds in rehabilitation. It is a deliberate restraint, one that asks the human to step back so that the wild creature may step forward, reclaiming the instincts and behaviors that will one day carry it back into the forest. The day closed with a photographic record of the free-flying birds at the open-air feeding stations — small figures perched and feeding against a backdrop of lush tropical vegetation, unhurried, and entirely themselves.
