Kris Porter

Kris Porter is the author of The Parrot Enrichment Activity Books; available as free PDF downloads at http://www.parrotenrichment.com. Her books are full of photographs, suggestions and ideas to enrich the lives of parrots and promote activity rather than stillness.

Kris is a graduate of the online class in behavior analysis called, Living and Learning with Parrots. Kris has written enrichment articles for Good Bird Magazine and her ideas with photos of parrot enrichment activities have been featured in articles in Parrots Magazine and Australian BirdKeeper Magazine.

Providing our parrots with enrichment, foraging opportunities and toys that sustain activity is an ongoing challenge. Kris has a talent for coming up with ideas and using photos and video clips to enlighten, motivate and inspire all of us who are looking for ways to enrich the captive parrot environment.

Kris and her husband, Jerry, lived and worked in Alaska for over 30 years. Jerry retired in 2011 and they moved to Zimmerman, Minnesota where they share their home with 2 dogs and 6 parrots.
