Scout flew about 10 feet today! She did not fly very high - it was more of a straight and low trajectory - but she flew!

Scout came to me with a badly broken wing. The vet said he doubted she would ever fly. I dont think she will ever be a flier, but it's good she can use the wing.

Does anyone else have a bird with a broken wing who can fly?

My beautiful photogenic little girl (please excuse the ugly fireplace, it is going to be completely redone when I can make my mind up what to do with it):

Moby bit Opa's wing back in May and broke it. It healed slightly off. He can fly but not very good. His right wing opens fully and closes fully and he can flap it perfectly. But in flight he cant open and close it as fast as it should. He still tries to fly a LOT but he also now climbs a great deal more too.

We found out recently about an old brake in Milty's wing.. It does hinder his flying, and he looks like he in some pain after flying any distance. That explains his preference to walk (run) on the floor...
