Parrots Cockatoos and Macaws...
|
It is not an easy task to fix the exact date when parrots first became known in Europe, but I should say that the middle of the fifteenth century is the most probable time for we read that it was in the year 1455 that "a Senegal Parrot was first heard of in Europe". I don't think this necessarily means Pceocephalus senegalus.
It more probably merely refers to a parrot of some kind imported from that part of Africa. It seems to have been nearly fifty years later (in 1504) that the first parrots reached England and were "shown as a great curiosity".
There are two historical Grey Parrots that deserve mention here, belonging respectively to King Henry VIII and to the famous and enchanting Duchess of Lennox and Richmond who was known as "La belle Stuart" and was a mistress of King Charles II.
While we do not know much of the Tudor parrot beyond the fact that it was a Grey and certainly did belong to Henry VIII, we know a good deal about the Stuart one and indeed its stuffed body - believed to be the oldest stuffed bird in the world - can be seen in the Norman Undercroft Museum at Westminster Abbey to this day.

The popularity as pets of the various members of the parrot family can be gauged from the frequency with which they appear in family portraits of the seventeenth and eigh¬teenth centuries, when, in addition no doubt to being cherished pets, they probably also possessed to a considerable extent what would now be called snob value-that is to say, like rich and elaborate clothing and jewels, their possession demonstrated at once the social status of then-owner.
In the seventeenth, and perhaps to a slightly lesser extent in the eighteenth century in this country, foreign birds were exotic luxuries only to be found in the homes of the aristocracy, and their inclusion in family portraits was therefore a reminder that their owners were people of wealth and position.
Nor did this traditional link between aviculture and the aristocracy quickly die: indeed it lingered on until the wonderful collection of parrot-like and other birds maintained in the park at Woburn Abbey for so many years was finally dispersed on the death a few years ago of their owner, the twelfth Duke of Bedford.
A former Lord Lilford of Lilford Park near Oundle was a very eminent aviculturist who bred parrots, cockatoos and, I believe, macaws as well at complete liberty on his estate.
