Harness help

[Zara]

Hello fellow bird lovers!
Skip to the last paragraph if you don´t want to read the backstory

A few years ago I bought a lone lovebird and called it Sydney.
A year later I decided to buy him a companion, yet they never truely bonded.
Almost a year ago, a lovebird landed on my doorstep (with no ring) I searched for an owner, but no one came forward. She later bonded with the bird I brought home to be with Sydney.
August 15th 2018, 2 eggs hatched. Me and my partner decided we would let Sydney choose a partner and find home/s for the other one, or both if no pair was made.
Today, We have now decided to keep both ... So we are now 5 lovebirds later.... and Sydney is still all alone.

Getting to the point of the thread, I am thinking of buying him/her a harness so we can spend more time together when I go out walking in the mountains.
Sydney is not a chick, So does anyone have any tips to help me with getting Sydney used to the harness, choose a good harness etc.
I don´t want Sydney to be scared of it, I just want us to be together more as I am not planning on expanding the family even more, and I don´t want Sydney to be lonely.
All advice is welcome! I´ll leave a link to a harness avail. in my local petshop. Thanks in advance

I would find an aviator harness and get that, it is the safest kne around Training him to accept it might take time, but is possible! Do always take precautions for hawks and such however.. I have basically trained one of my lovies to wear a harness and the other one is on his way but we didn’t go out yet. However, last week I was in the forest with them in their celltei carrier and I heard birds of prey twice. Not a problem, but if they had been ‘loose’ on a harness that might have ended ugly

Seconding Robin about the Aviator Harness. I don't trust any others and the one you posted looks considerably heavier for such a tiny, tiny bird.

TikiMyn, Feather, Thanks. I did see a different brand harness a while ago in a different pet shop, but I looked today and couldn´t see it online... I think that may have been the brand Aviator. So maybe I´ll head that way and see if they still have them still
Also, we have a hawk living on top of the apartment block in front of us! I was walking down the street the other day and it was trying to attack someones bird that they had left in a cage on the balcony We also have a birds of prey centre on a mountain peak a few hundred metres west, and they are known to go out during one of their shows/exhibits and not always return. They willl stay out for days before going home.
Even to take sydney with me to walk the dog around the town would be nice. I´m going abroad in a week, so I don´t want to start now, my thoughts are it will be better to do it when I´m home so we can try it little by little every day and he´ll get used to it.
I read a lot of people think harnesses aren´t good for a bird but at least he will see a bit more of the world...
