Beautiful Home in Alachua, Fl Awaits Loving Couple to Take Care of Birds
Introduction
Lovely, non-smoking 3 bedroom home on 7.5 acres in Alachua, Florida awaits you. Enjoy all the wonderful wildlife from deer to the turkey that visit every day in a park setting. The home is located close to springs to kayak and over 40 biking trails within 20-30 minutes away. Downtown Gainesville is also 20 minutes away. The grocery is only 10 minutes away so have it all! I love to travel but have put on hold due to getting a rescue Moluccan Cockatoo who is very friendly, like a dog but is very demanding wants to be held and petted a lot...loves attention. I left my Eclectus Parrot for over a month to come back shortly after to a bird that plucks his feathers now so put off traveling for a few years. I feel if I leave them in their home they will be happy and it will not affect them so much for me to go away. The birds are friendly and do not bite if handled properly. Birdie does not bite at all. She will sit on you all day long as she loves to be petted as long as you will do it! My home is a true paradise...come and enjoy North Central Florida at its best!

Birdie is a snuggle bug, always ready for a cuddle. Kiwi is a nosy clown, flying around the house to see what you are up to. They spend the day out by the pool, protected by the pool enclosure. Each has his own routine, but they both want human company. Debbie's house is majestic, with massive tropical plantings and a fantastic pool/spa outside, 11 foot ceilings and a kitchen out of Architectural Digest inside. The neighborhood is gated and manicured to perfection. Naples is cosmopolitan, with fine dining, many museums, and numerous scattered, quiet, human-scale beaches. This is a very special place if you love birds. Oh, and there are tropical fish who constantly beg to be fed, though they tend to be quiet at night.
