Blue & Gold Macaw (Titan) & Yellow Naped Amazon (Kelly)
Cleaned a bunch of cages and played with a couple birds:)

Scarlet the scarlet macaw who is becoming a little too bonded with the owner of the rescue. So she wanted me to play with her a bit while I was there. Took her out yesterday and today!



Getting into stuff...

Played with the owners cockatoo who she has had forever. Love this bird he is super sweet.


And Kelly the amazon...this bird has completely won me over. When I first met him he was cool but not overly interesting but everytime I go over I love him more and more:D Toady for the first time he tried to follow me around and called for me when I left the room. He even turns his head ruffles his feathers and purrs when I scratch his face:rolleyes: He was acting aggressive with everyone else today. (I'm sure he wouldn't be with the owner since he likes her too but she wasn't there obviously:)) Guessing he likes me and since I was in the room everyone else should stay away... I tried putting him on a stand and seeing if he would step for others but he wouldn't. Did the whole amazon pinning, ruffling, and tail splaying. I'm going to talk to the owners about adopting him... even though awhile ago I said I liked him but not enough to adopt him...the guy totally manipulated me into falling for him...sneaky amazon...


Anyway that was my week/weekend!
 
Must be fun to work with all those beautiful birdies all the time!:D

I actually just got back:) Thursday was bit hectic since it was cleaning day and I made up fresh food enough for everyone but the other days were a lot of fun:D Scarlet is hilarious the way she wings those toys. We joke someones going to get knocked out.

The really funny part was when I walked into the macaw room and looked into Budgies cage, the owners scarlet macaw, and he wasn't there... He was on the opposite row opening other cages! He got the hyacinth cage next to him open and the blue and gold across from him open before I came in... He totally gave me an innocent wasn't me look when I saw him:rolleyes:

No the hyacinth is the owners baby:) Plus, I'm pretty sure there is already a line of people who keep trying to convince her she really doesn't love him that much....
 
D'aww... the video of Scarlet playing was super cute!
 
Looks like fun! Love the pics and videos thanks for posting these.

It is so much fun! Well the cleaning cages not so much but playing with so many birds definitely. Even getting bitten by a couple greys is ignorable:)

Here is some video of one of the shelter too we had out right before we left the rescue Saturday. Ethel super sweet lover of women but vicious with men.
