[Hendryx]

Hmmmmm?? Maybe he has well behaved birdies!!

 

[GG.]

they are gorgeous and that is a stunning view!!

I wondered the same thing about the curtains and wreaths - they look so 'neat and tidy' would never last here!!

 

[Kristy]

We are talking Macaws here.

 

[Hendryx]

Lol! I have heard of the mythical well behaved macaw,have never seen it..maybe one day.

 

[Holiday]

Hmm, I dunno, Elvis is "semi" well behaved She would sneak over to those wreaths and slooowly go for it, until I said "what're you doin', Bird?" And then she would be like

 

[Hendryx]

[Holiday]

Nope!! all mine are lightning fast, destroy first then look at me like...what???

 

[Hendryx]

[Holiday]

Oh Yes it's hilarious!....or is it??

Sorry, Bride's--I was just picturing that. It's not like mine's not taken a few chunks out of things, but she's more the cagey type

 

[Hendryx]

Mine are buzz saws! the macs and too's are slowly but surely remodeling my house!!..(They destroy everything when their not busy plotting to take over the world) lol..

Wowza, the more and more I see of your flock the more envious I get!!!!

 

[Birdlover]

That is a great hangout!

 

[Gen120]

wow, what a beautiful macaw flock you have!

 

[Emmilyy]

that looks awesome! your birds look so healthy and happy!

 

[Skyler]

Gorgeous fids and so seemingly content and peaceful--it makes me want to ask---Are they real????

 

[Parrotlove]

Love the picture and love your flock they are beautiful.. That stand has to be a special made. I've never seen one quite like it before. Thanks for sharing. Hug's Barb and Isis

Jaw-droppingly gorgeous. Do they all get along well? I have major curiosity about multiple macaw households.

In this pic, we sat them on the gym and they were so interested in the camera that they sat still. Most of our macaws have a buddy that they choose themselves and they play together in a larger flock where the others don't mess with each other's buddies. This is not an easy process, we were lucky with a couple of them that fell in love at first sight, but others it took longer. A couple of them prefer to be by themselves and that is their choice.

 

[Big Blues]

LOVELY set up! I really like the look of it. Is it a homemade stand? And do you fids always get along so well?

We got the stand from Avian Environments, the birds have really enjoyed it because of the size. They can move over if they have a spat with their buddy!

 

[Big Blues]

That is a great photo, question for you.

How do you keep them off those lovely curtains and those wreaths?? Surely those wreaths must look like toys to them....or are they for them??

Hi Kristy, I measured their beak and talon stretch and determined the curtains were safe! Actually, the playgym is about 36 inches forward of the window and they can't reach it. All of our birds are flighted, but interestingly enough they have their regular routes and stick to them. I am very happy that one of the routes isn't my window top !
