Meet the flock. Our Queen Aura is an 8 year old blue and gold macaw. Native to the rainforest of Central and South America but definitely at home on the Central Queensland Coast. She arrived at Flight Club aged 11 months. Aura is a heart bird. She is an absolute delight with a great sense of humour. She is the mediator among the flock & enjoys the finer things in life. Since she is social with the public and is desensitised to all environments we are able to take her just about anywhere. Island hopping is her favourite pass time. She has never been very interested in free flying (way too much effort) but loves an outdoor adventure, as long as it's well catered and there's no bug's. If she was a person she would likely work in property management. She is friendly and personable but she will definitely send you a breech of tenancy if you dont follow the rules. She would probably drive a Suzuki Swift with great fuel economy, upgraded sound system and a cold air conditioner. All the things a girl needs. She will absolutely ask to see the manager. Don't invite this diva camping. 5 star all the way.

Meet the flock. Echo is an 8 year old short billed corella. He is a member of the cockatoo family and is native to Australia. Echo came to us with loads of behavioural problems. It took me many months to be able to work with him affectively but thankfully he bonded to my son Charlie, so we were still able to manage him and free flight train him before he warmed up to me. He was four years old when he arrived. He is incredibly intelligent and people oriented. An expert at reading facial expression and body language so he is always one step ahead and can anticipate whats coming by being hyper sensitive to his environment. If he was a person he would probably work in a bar and sell w**d on the side. He would drive a Holden Commodore and have a gambling habit. The kind of person you dont have on speaker phone when you answer his call.

Meet the flock!! Most of you already know everybirdy here at Flight Club but for our new followers we are going to do a series of introductions. We are starting out green 💚 This is Zoo (Zazu) He is an 8 year old male Alexandrine Parakeet. Native to South Asia and SE Asia. Zazu was hand raised here at Flight Club. He is super smart and super independent. Of all the birds I have trained to free fly, Zazu was by far the most challenging and most unpredictable. Its hard to believe that now as he is super reliable and competent in a free flight scenario. If Zazu was a person he would do volunteer work and drive a Volvo. He is a kind soul (but he doesn't share almonds)

Zoo (Zazu) is just coming out of a hideous Alexandrine moult. These guys honestly look like they have been through a paper shredder during that time. He has the cutest little stumpy butt feathers at the moment though 😂 Zoo goes under the radar and probably doesn't get enough screen time for how clever he is 😉 He is such a special little bird. We very rarely practice this trick. He never forgets. Always on task.

These RTB Cockatoo's are really something special. We have taught Paddy to spin while displaying all of his feathers. He is such a stunning boy with the cutest little under fluffies 😁

Amish Griffin came across my memories 😂😂

I'm typically a one man band with my road trip concerts but not when Echo is around 🤣
An afternoon with our little marshmallow is never dull. We have been getting beautiful storms every evening, this one was a stunner.

Silly games with Tanza. Hiding in the long grass when he is foraging in the tree's 🤣🤣

The most effective, humane, and least intrusive, way to interact with your bird is through operant conditioning and positive reinforcement, because it empowers your parrot, gives them choice or control, and helps establish and maintain a positive, trusting relationship. Teaching your parrot tricks can also improve their welfare because it gives more opportunities for reinforcement and to build trust. Silly trick behaviours such as circling, waving, backing up, picking up an object, retrieving an object, flying to your hand, or even painting or playing basketball can be fun for both you and your bird, and provides mental stimulation and physical exercise. Teaching a new behaviour is done through a process called shaping or “differential reinforcement of successive approximations”. Any time you interact with your parrot, you are potentially shaping behaviour, so it is important to be mindful of your interactions, by carefully observing their body language, to see how your actions affect your parrot.
