Moab Parrots
Loading...
Uploaded by ClayMyersVideo on May 7, 2009
In March 2007 I was sent on assignment with three Best Friends staffers to Moab Utah to photograph a group of parrot lovers that free-fly their birds.
They told me I would be treated to the opportunity of photographing macaws and other parrots flying over the red rocks of Moab. As a long-time nature photographer, the concept of colorful parrots gracefully flying over such a spectacular landscape sounded like a dream. And just as promised, there they were in all their glory. The whole scene was beautiful and fun to watch.
But the birds were not only beautiful; they were real characters too and showed off in whimsical ways I didnt quite expect. At times they were just plain silly - landing on everyones head, pulling on hats, untying shoestrings, wanting peanuts and sips of water.
It's clear these people truly love their birds and take them out on free-flying sessions to help ensure that they have quality lives. To find out more about safely free-flying parrots, go to: http://www.libertywings.com

@dirtrider10thousand
The music is from a royalty free music DVD I've had for several years. Glad you like the show.

@chihuahuabulldog The birdtricks people are new at this and don't use the best training techniques. I would avoid them if it were me.

Clay could you change the link in your description libertywings com The old link no longer works. I have upgraded the website since you visited. You should come fly with us again sometime. Chris Biro

word, i respect anyone who smuggles parrots from the dirty country of mexico and brings them to the colorful usa. Even the mexicans them selfs cant stand their country so why should the parrots suffer too!
