Mabel's story is such an inspiration. I am so glad that the 2 of you found each other. It gives me hope for the 2 b & gs that I am are in need of a good home. I hope they will find someone like you to take care of them.

She had that posture for about 5 weeks. I *think* she could hardly believe her eyes that she was somewhere different than the petshop. Healthier meals, lots of toy enrichment, natural lighting, weekly showers, no obnoxious fingers poking through her cage and most of all Acknowledgement and physical contact.
You're right, she probably never had most of these necessities her entire time at the store before you brought her home. Sad, but that is the lot of many birds caged in stores for most of their early life. :(

She probably thought she was dreaming and I for MANY months thought I had imagined the whole thing myself.:D
It was a completely changed world for her. The fabric of reality transformed before her eyes, so it's no wonder she seemed to be in a reverie.

It took me a few months to become accustomed to *seeing* a macaw in my home. I had not been used to looking at any of the macaw species even though I knew what they looked like. It took me time to get used to seeing one so up close and personal.:D I guess I went through a bit of shock myself for the first few months.:lol: I hope this makes sense.:p
Yes, it makes sense. Macaws are special; you receive 10 fold what you give to them out of love. Being a deeply devoted and caring individual, you should be rewarded with many, many years of enduring affection.
