Dear friends Last 28th October was held in Lisbon the first seminar on parrots' behaviour and training, wonderfully lectured by Igor Maskin. It was a 7 hours...
Hello, This may be a bit off topic but I'm moving to Greece next month and I was wondering if anyone on this list is in Greece or if anyone knows of any parrot...
Chris, On your first video of the six macaws flying, they seemed to break off into a group of four and a group of two. Who made up the groups and which two...
Hi everyone! What a fantastic group. I've found it hard to access information on free flight training, and am thrilled to have found precisely what I've been...
... The two that flew together the entire flight were Boomer and Grace (Calicos). Siren (Calico) was also flying and she is the one that is often either by...
... Siren was awesome! That is incredible. She is one of the two juveniles that came to you clipped? That was a very big flight. Mine don't fly that far...
... Yes this is one of the two that came to us as clipped babies. She was handled by us as she matured and we were expecting her to regain her flight abilities...
All birds are fine. My son and I took all three macaws (BT, Scarlet, Red Front) out for a fly together this morning. The two bonded birds, Chloe and Lyndall, ...
1. Please cut and paste ONLY what you are responding to - to NOT do that makes reading in digest a living nightmare (also stinks if you aren't!). 2. When...

Hi Clare, Please first read everything,only then can we help you ...take you time enjoy this journey I would recommend you to train BEFORE scheduled...
I took Lyndall Scarlet out with me this morning to check the garden. She was extremely watchful and on edge. Even so, she went for a small fly with lots of...
I'll have to put up some pics of Charlie soon! He's a stunning blue baby budgie that I'm keeping for about a month before he goes to live with a friend of...
Hi Audrey: I LOVE this post about Charlie. I really enjoy the mental picture of this little guy flying around and learning how to interact with your "flock of...
Hello Clare, I must confess that reading Angela post was like reading... my diary:) all the training steps I gave with my African Grey... and for now he is not...
Hi all, i just want to share that Inca is going great. We went out twice, this weekend. We went to a new location, more near home. First day, Inca spotted a...
... Hi Decio, So glad everything is working out with Inca. I think it is dangerous to have a big bird loose in the car. It doesn't take much to spook the...
... At this stage of the game, I think it is a good idea for you to avoid trees if you have that option. We do this in Moab and it does reduce the time the...
Thank you Janet and Chris, You just said what I was thinking on. I must stablish contact, and do it in a funny way, in a way I motivate the bird to stay close...
Hello Janet, Regarding the crate, just to tell you that I had already bought one, just hadn't the time to make Inca confortable in it... maybe I will be able...
I got an email back from my falcon-expert friend Jaime Samour. He still does not think that a Peregrine would seriously take on a full grown macaw. I wrote...
Just FYI, I have a falconer friend who flies a male peregrine (remember males are 1/3 smaller than females) and last Saturday his peregrine took out a female...
Thanks so much, Decio! That's incredibly helpful. I will as you suggest get him used to outside sounds from the start. This was actually very important with my...
Hi Clare, You did it with your dog which is a domestic animal for many and many centuries... imagine what you must do with a wild animal as a parrot. Don't...
Learn also what you can about their wild habitats. Try to give them a litle bit of that at home. There is a strong vision that the "wild animal" must be...
Hi Curtis, Peregrines are water fowl specialists, so I'm not at all surprised. Jaime believes the macaw's beak is likely to be a serious deterrent. He felt...
Hey folks, I have been trying to desensitise Pilot and now Chloe corella to as much as possible, under some false idea that I can create the perfect spook free...
