Both fully flighted and happy to stick around - Very impressive stuff!

You have my respect and adoration! Those birds are well trained. There are dangers involved but I am sure you have confidence in your birds and in yourself as a handler.

I wish to be able to do this with Boomer someday, when he's ready. So far I have taken him out to little walks in the neighborhood and the park, and a drive through at a fastfood joint haha!

By the way, how do you keep them from pooping on your shoulder? It's a hit or miss with Boomer. He tries to wait till I pick him up but most of the time he'd let it go.

In my experience the best thing to do is place him on the ground every 5 to 10 minutes - depending on how much they've had to eat/drink. They do their business then you pick them up and carry on!

On a good day I can walk around outside with Birdy on me for 5 hours at a time without a single poop on my clothes.
Of course, sometimes I forget to give him the opportunity and he just does it whenever he can.

That's far enough for boomer anyway , I also took Jerry to the atm counter, nearby convenient shop etc, she just stayed put in the car while we're driving.

I did exactly what mudkips explained. yaayaaaaaa accidents happened sometimes but it's ok with me. Just prepare your anti bacterial tissue and all are back to normal.

Thank you all for the comments
