Approximately 50 parrots of all sizes get together. We do have training prior to do this. We shared all the experiences and try to solve the problems altogether. The hapiness of the bird on flight is more than a reward to the owners

That is so cool! I've flown flocks of parrots before, but they were all members of the same flock, not all different like this :)

At the very beginning we flew the same breed/ flock, but gradually we joined them into one same flight session. Yup.... There are some birdies that separated and have their own group of flight :)

I am aware of such situation therefore I explained that this post was not intended to dragging in the pro-cons. Then if somebody out there disagree pls consider the difference values we had on freeflight
