David Roman
I bought mine so they would be free as possible an not in a cage all day. Sorry they can’t be free but they don’t want to be so it seems.
I let one go and he came back and went right back in his cage! So what can I say!
Its wonderful to see him fly free but his choice was living with me!
I guess he thinks room service is better than looking for a meal every day!LOL
Mine can all fly but choose to stay put an their doors are open all day.
But freedom is a matter of choice I guess in their minds.
But if I had it my way none would be for sale!
But I try to be good to them an offer them a better home than they had when I bought them.
See ya and that Gang Gang in America cost 20,000 US can you catch me one!LOL
WendyJC replied
even if i could catch one i wouldn’t … we had a young rosella in the garden late yesterday which i caught and placed in the black berries to be safe from cats and other predatores for the night … it was there before day break and has thankfully gone now … sounds like you love and keep your birds well! x
David Roman
Thats 20,000 US dollars to be very clear!
WendyJC replied
money cant buy everything David!

David Roman
Yea hugh gages and eat better than me and are a part of the family with big mouths ! I guess they got that from me!LOL
But they live good.
But thats a lovely bird I would never get another parrot again an my 3 are quiet compared to others that have them but oh my can they be a pain !An messy too!
David Roman
Your country doesn’t allow exportation of its birds from what I know and I think thats a super idea.
But 20,000 a pop now thats a lot of cash sitting on a branch!LMAO you know what I mean and that black cockatoo thats 45,000 next time you see him flying throw a net up please!
I saw one in the zoo here in Germany that day I was there what a super bird an to think you have them in your back yard. My I would be in heaven shooting them for RB! I guess parrots are like pigeons in your country all over the place?
Back to your shot its super Wendy! Faved it again this morning! 20,000 hummm I might be on my way there with my nets!!
See ya
WendyJC replied
Not sure you could compare them to pidgeons, the Gang Gang’s seem to travel in small groups and dont make as much noise as the Sulphur Crested … get a bunch of them together and you know about it …
thanks again David!
WendyJC
thank you all for the wonderful comments and faves,

Beautiful action shot Wendy.

WendyJC replied
thank you Joseph!
David Roman
Your right but it is funny when a price is put on a creatures head! I find it sad so now you know my real feelings but it is funny to think about them that way. Honey theres that 50,000 dollar bird on the terrace again! LOL
I like them free! An no one should be able to buy one!
Anyway see ya later
