Miguel, wore a collar for several months, waiting for him to grow his feathers out. A few days ago, I took his collar off and decided to start doing some flying exercises with him. He definitely needs to grow his strength back in his wings, but I think he’s got a great start! Once he grows his tail feathers back I think he will be good to go for longer periods of flying.

Something to think about... I saw this comment posted today. If you need to read this more than once to understand, please do, then do better .
Written by Little Beaks:
'If someone caged any other animal than a bird and never let them out, everyone would go off their heads, but if it's a bird it seems it's acceptable. The one animal that freedom means the most to seems to mean the least to humans.'

This really resonates with me. I realise that plenty of small animals are kept in cages that are largely unsuitable, but there is something fundamentally different about bids. They are not domesticated. They have the ability for the most movement, and instincts and intelligence to match. To deprive a bird of this and keep it in a cage perhaps a few times the size of its wingspan... That sounds like some kind of torture.

This is NOT saying that people should release pet birds. Pet birds would generally not survive in the wild if released, because they don't understand how to find food and shelter or evade predators. Birds who are released go through extensive rehabilitation for successful transition into the wild.

This is simply saying that birds have specific needs, and in many ways they are the most neglected and abused pets due to this physical, mental and psychological deprivation. It is so important for anyone with birds to research their needs, observe them in more natural habitats and try to replicate this as much as possible.

While this post is about birds, I would like to emphasise that ALL animals kept as pets (and otherwise) should have the freedom to do what is natural and necessary for their wellbeing, including having suitable housing. And sadly, there are so many animals that don't have this.

We are in the cone, but the storm should be a cat 1. I will do my best to continue getting orders out, but there maybe a pause 🤷‍♀️.

Open a world of freedom

Open up a World of Freedom… There is nothing quite as rewarding then enjoying time with your flock member outside, in the sunshine, where they should be. It is a simple pleasure few can imagine, allowing your flock to experience nature. Whether it is a simple stroll around the yard, a walk to the beach, or simply including your flock member in the festivities, when a guest is over. My name is Mary, I am a retired Respiratory Therapist from the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center, and wife to a retired Fire Captain from Prince Georges County MD, currently living on a quiet barrier Island in Melbourne Beach Florida, but transplanted from the country side of Clarksville Maryland. Clarksville is where our family began, two boys, Brian and Daniel, and two parrots, Kalani and Miguel. ��Our life was thrown a curve ball one day, in our back yard, under our deck, while Kirk was sitting on our rope porch swing. Kalani, while climbing around on Kirk’s shoulder (things we bird owners do all to often), was knocked off by a Red Tailed Hawk. Kirk gave chase across the back yard, to the fence line, Kalani bit the hawk and It let her go, she fell to the ground. Immediately, Kirk hovered over her, as the hawk swooped down for another try. Thankfully for her, she was fine, not a single puncture wound. Never again, would our flock go outside without an edge on their security, for if it were Miguel, my small Yellow Collared Macaw, he definitely would have had a worse fate. I couldn’t imagine…

Leathers4Feathers was born… �What I create here is much more than a simple harness, it is a comfort, a security, and a style, for owner and flock member, unlike any other on the market. It is as easy to use as 1-2-3, over the head or snap on the back, and two clips on either side. A lifestyle that can navigate and change your bird’s existence in the pet industry, they have an option to safely attend outings with their flock family, safely, securely and in a style like no other. A subtle reminder that you are in control of your bird’s own safety. �When a day is seemingly monotonous, take some time to harness your beauty and get out and enjoy a walk in the sun, and reflect on how this single action changes your pet bird’s look on life. My leather bird harnesses have changed not only my life, but the lives of thousands, over the past 12 years This is my positive footprint. ��Much Love, Mary, family and flock
