Canaries can live 20 to 25 years. ... The average life span for a parrot in captivity is considerably shorter than his potential life span ... of birds (keep in mind that how long your bird lives has a lot to do with proper diet and proper veterinary care) ...

Great stuff Sheba but it's also good to be able to ask friends as well and have a chat. I've looked after the odd galah from time to time apparantly they can live longer than humans. I suppose people have to specify arrangements in their wills for their ongoing care.
