I thought I would share this video. Though it is very dangerous, IMHO, for both bird and people, it is still so beautiful to see this bird in flight. I love how he glides next to his person.

Interesting, especially since it is in Brazil. Isn't that where these macaws live in the wild?

it was pretty

don't think I'd do something like that out in the city on public roads - never know when a semi or big vehicle is going to come the other way

but the bird had no intentions on landing back on his arm for a very long time

I agree that I held my breath a couple times! It looks like a small town that is very use to watching this bird and his owner.

It was great to watch - but how the heck would one ever get up the courage to do something like that? I would be scared he would decide to find a flock to live with and never return.

Come to Miami and see the wild flock flying! You get to see it live! Even though the wild flock has been flying to my backyard for years I still get a thrill each and every time. They are amazing flyers and even more amzing is to see them hover like small helicopters when making a tricky landing at the feeder. Also I thought it was just my pet birds that liked hanging upside down. The wild birds like to do it a lot too.
