My Harlequin is home!

[willist]

Well, I went to see the Harlequin today. She is very big, much bigger then my GW. She would not come out of her cage when I got there. Also she looked a little agitated. They disconnected her swing and pulled her out on it. They then clipped her wings, she wasn't too upset about that. Then they put her in my travel cage. When I got home I put her on a table in her travel cage and brought out my GW. I put him on a perch near by and right away he said "hello" she answered him with two loud hellos. I then transferred her to her new big macaw cage. I next fed them both nuts, her though the bars. She took them very gently. Next I opened her door and handed her a walnut which she took from my hand. I feel things will work out nicely. Her name is Concheeta, I'm going to call her Connie, I don't think she'll mind. Naturally my camera battery is dead so pictures to follow tomorrow.
