I'm sure most of you know where this is going. :mad2:

All the mentions of Taco's habit of getting himself into trouble on the 2018 memory thread and here he is again, sending off the Year of Vet Bills with yet another mishap. I mean, at least he didn't fly into the wall a second time...he DID, however, fly into the floor.

I doubt he has a concussion this time, but jeez louise child, we really need to bring back the crash helmet!

Two and a half hours left of 2018. SOS. :faint:



...On the upside, he's started to really flap his wings properly during flying practice! :D He was actually flying on his own power when he hit the ground! I wish I had a camera rolling, it was so wonderful to see.

It's also a good thing that I have both bird room floors padded, and not just Kamara's. Wam, bam, bop onto his keel bone and head over tail, but still a good soft landing on foam tiles and a comforter instead of hardwood.

Any tailors looking to make a fortune on macaw body armour? :lol:

Oh no! Geez maybe he really just wanted to remind you of all that you have had to deal with this year so you do not get complacent? I am hoping he is ok and not in need of more ER appointments.
I think you should have been given the crash helmet for Taco:D

Thank goodness it's 2019 now. :fingerscrossed:

I'm glad he's getting stronger and staying to get the hang of it, though.

Sometimes you just want to wrap them in bubble wrap for their safety, but then they would pop all the bubbles.
