Outdoor Recall w/ Kyleigh

[StephenAndKyleigh]

I haven't talked about it much, but Kyleigh and I have been working toward free flight since about December. She's been recalling indoors since she was about 10 weeks old.

Yesterday was our 3rd time outside. It was windy, so her landing were a bit....rough lol.

Enjoy!

I thought you would be upset with me lol.

ROFLMAO! No! Not at all. You have to remember that each parront does what they feel is best for them and their fid(s). I LOVE what you are doing with Kyleigh! I really do. I would just never have enough balls to try it with mine, that's all. (Heck, I have to watch mine like a 'hawk' when I take them outside because my area is full of birds of prey)

I bet before too long you'll have Kyleigh flying in big, open fields, reliably coming back to you. You and I both know I'm right.

Looks like she's doing great with her recall training! How's she liking the great outdoors?

Great job Stephen! Getting Kyleigh was the best thing for you wasn't it?!

ps.. I agree with Wendy's post.

I love watching your progress with Kyleigh, Stephen! You're doing such an amazing job with her.

I once dreamed of doing free flight with my flock, but like Wendy (not surprisingly since we both live in Jersey)I was put off by the large number of predatory birds in my area. (Some of which are ridiculously large!) So I set my sights on harness training, instead.

But I always enjoy watching parrots in free flight. It's a beautiful thing.

I love seeing all the progress you are making with Kyleigh. On days when I don't feel like training with Baxter, I think of you and Kyleigh and am motivated to keep going!

Keep up the amazing work and please keep sharing your photos and videos!
