I'd say that, after a month, we have made some progress. Simon makes little to no complaints about stepping up, hangs from the java tree by his beak, hoping I'll pick him up, and grabbing my fingers with his feet and putting them on his head for scritches. Tonight for the first time, he tucked up under my chin.

We’re working on trust and gentle right now. He’s been great but started out the first 2 weeks acting like an 800 lb gorilla, which I expected. I don’t realize how big he is until I see Harry trying tosteal a Mac nut from him.
And Annie is only 100 grams less than him.

I can rub his cere, the yellow membranes, pick up his feet, etc.He’s coming along nicely and is acting like a big, blue cockatoo.
