Goodpie and friends,
I am now writing from Muscat, Oman. I was busy for a while and had not the time to write.
Goodpie, getting your love bird to fly to you is only one step in the beginning. There are many more steps before you can take or allow your bird outside.
If you have the time to read what I have written, you will see also that both Tinkerbell and Yingshiong were taught to fly to different places that I named.
A very important step will also be hide & seek recall. From different rooms where your bird cannot see you, you must call to them and they will fly and look for you and come to you.
You then must take the bird to a much bigger place than just your home. In a big big place such as a closed gymnasium so the bird get used to much bigger area.
All those details are in Tinkerbell webpage.
Even so, taking a well trained bird outside ALWAYS will have an element of risk involved. Accidents can happen. A sound may frighten them so much that they fly away. A hawk may attack them.
So before you take a bird outside, you must know your bird very well and can recognise how the bird feel.
And be prepared for the worse.
Warmest regards
Shanlung

This is a love story of me and my Tinkerbell, a free flying Congo African Grey parrot CAG , as we roamed about the mountains and forests and cities of Taiwan. She loves to go riding with me on the motorbike as she sit on a perch on the handle bar.

Full details of that and more are in that webpage, together with URLs to the relevant Webshots folders of hundreds of photos. Without those photos, what I wrote will never be believed
As with all love story, it is happy and sad.
Warmest regards
