    This guy really has done a super amazing job. When I saw him on his balcony and letting the bird go around the trees and in between the houses, it took my breathe away. If I ever get a bird, this is what my dream would be for it to fly in its own neighborhood for daily exercise. The wing span and tail are soooo very long. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a beautiful creature!!!!

    This is so AWESOME! I've always wanted a large bird and was around large birds as a child because my great grandmother was a bird expert with huge aviaries and birds in her home, but with me caring for many stray cats I am too scared to put a bird at risk in a house with predators. It just wouldn't be fair to the bird and would be quite stupid if you ask me. But, one day I WILL get the bird I've always wanted. Also, my great grandmother's favorite boy named Pee-joe is still living and being cared for by one of my cousins. Crazy huh? I wonder how old Pee-joe is now. He's got to be like 60 or something.
