Rose just flew

[gracebowen]

2 feet over and 1 foot down. She was perched on my sins finger and she flew over and landed in my lap. Dad was there feeding pied and she wanted food too.

I wasn't expecting it so by the time I realized it was happening it was over.

Great! They're fledging .

Sweet! Watching as your bird discovers the joys of flight is a beautiful thing, isn't it? I hope you manage to catch the flight on video!

 

[Flboy]

Funny, I had to zoom in on the attachment. At first I thought your daughter had a horribly disfigured right leg!

Flboy go chug some more caffeine . That's my son.

My son said pied flew while I was at church. Rose continues to practice landing.

Your babies are beautiful, Grace. I'm glad they are both doing so well. Those first take offs and landings must be scary to watch, and pure joy when they gain control of their wings. I love watching birds fly.

 

[gracebowen]

I saw pied fly today.
