OMG Ringneck, bet your heart was in your mouth when Brutus decided to go for a joy flight!!
I think I would have had a heart attack if that had happened. I would love to let Raf outside but I am just not game to. I had thought of harness training him but there are a few predatory birds around here that give my aviary birds a hard time, so not willing to risk it.
Thanks Sarahb

They are very expensive, that was one of the things that I pondered over and over and over. The decision to bring Rafiki into our home was not made lightly. But, I do NOT regret spending that money on him one little bit. He really is worth every $, right down to the last cent.
A few people asked why I would bother spending so much money on a bird. My argument is I am a non smoker, and maybe drink a couple of times a year at celebrations. The money I would possibly spend on cigarettes over the course of smoking years, far outweighs the money I spend on "just a bird". Besides, Raf gives me more pleasure than any cigarette could.
