Took the day with no customers and worked on a painting. Harley became very interested and with a little food she's lowering her defenses.

How many birds do you own?

.Just the one, ones enough, for now. I had Jimmy for 5 years. I was in Florida for a turkey hunt when I received a call she was taken by a pirguin falcon. She was as good as any of my Best dogs over 65 years. Pigeons are smart and loyal.

Harley reminds me of a 3 year old kid. Aways under your feet. In her case buzzing me , jumping into my lap and just being plan curiously seeking out her surroundings. 8 weeks old. 16 days in the shop.

Harley took flight her first outing and she either got lost or joined up with another group of birds.
Today I received a one month old with a lot of pedigree and personality.

Noharley I am going to get me another riding partner. Jimmy didn't have her 1st flight for 2 months and had a good attachment to me. Maggie is going to be a couple 3 months before she gets out. I've thought of clipping her 2nd and 3rd flight feathers. I'll be able to train her outside after a month in the shop. I'll confirm with Mike who I buy birds from. He said Maggie is a strong smart bird and a good people bird with very good pedigree. I'll be figuring her out as she matures.

At just over a week in the shop Maggie is adjusting to shop life and me. 5 weeks old.

Maggie is a sweetheart. Very interesting look. The left side of her beak is black which gives her a bent Beak illusion.

 

[mdcrossbow]

Maggie after 7 weeks in the shop is learning to chill, she is becoming one spoiled bird. I showed the breeder this and he said he would never expect to see a bird do this.

Time out as Maggie gets me to take a break.
