Rachel (Macaw) Running Around on Deck & Talking

Because the fans are asking for it. Here is some raw footage I shot tonight while playing with Rachel out on the deck.

In this clip Rachel will say...
"Ohhhh"
"Hi"
"Ahhhh", "Ohhhh" (Swinging from branch)

3:01 :05 "Whatcho Doin?"
3:10 "Hi Sweetheart"
3:12 "Whatcho Doin?, Hey!"
3:21 :24 "Hi, How are you?"
3:27 "Hi Beaky"
3:34 "Whatcha Doing?"
4:20 :26 :30 "Hi"
4:34 "How are you?"

are those wings clipped?

[IthacaJason]

She has her wings clipped. If she would take flight her range is limited. I trust my relationship with her to know that she is ok. I would not recommend anyone else taking their bird outside unless they are experienced with knowing their bird and their potential for flight.

I love "Hi Beaky". ROFL

I just might name one of my new macaw babies that! Too cute. lol

[IthacaJason]

That would be cool! Let me know if you indeed do. My Mom calls Rachel "Beaks" and well Rachel has a ton of nicknames... Beaker, Gomer Beak, Buzzard Beak, Beakasaurus, Big Birdy, Little Birdy, RachelBird, Beakus, BeakusMacaw, SquawkBox, ChickenBeak, Chicken... I'm sure I'm missing a few.

are you not afriad that she'll fly away

(Sorry for mu bad english)

[IthacaJason]

She has her wings clipped and can not get very good up flight.

Great video :D

She's such a drama queen when it comes to that branch(?) lolz

[MaplesMcGee]

Rachel is too cute. Aren't you afraid she will fly off? Do you keep her wings clipped? I have a sun conure and I would be afraid to let him outside like that. He hasn't started talking yet. He will copy the dogs sound crying sometime. Any suggestions on how to get him talking. I talk to him all the time and play with him a good bit.

that is the happiest bird......because of the owner

You may have her already trained for recall but with wings clipped, you should look into this in getting that done if not. Then short flights for a while to build up muscle tone. Chris Biro does some great work with macaws in Freeflight. User: Chrisbiro1

My families looking into getting a macaw soon, my mom had one when she was little and i hear they're Great pets. where did you purchase yours and how old was it when you got it?

thanks.

Macaw is the easiest to be trained to free fly in all parrot species. I know it is risky but it is the ultimate level in having a parrot as part of the family. By the way have you been to libertywings website?

[PaRrOtReScUeWoTr]

@IthacaJason At the risk of seeming ostentatious it would seem that her outer flight feathers are not trimmed. Macaws need only 4 flight feathers (not necessarily 2 on each wing) to fly. Just saying be careful with your baby.

[HumeraGinwalla]

gorgeous , i have an african grey and i will get a macaw in the near future ..

[sukashar]

you think so? If something startles your bird,it's not gonna think before it flys off of you.
