Welcome to the flying club Tobie.

I took my daughter to my friend's apartment pool for a swim this afternoon. Here are some pics of Cocoa near the pool side. Cocoa wasn't swimming. Some flight vids at the poolside.

Pics of Mocha and his feet.

My wife called on Mocha while knocking the back door with Cocoa perching on her fingers. Mocha was behind the door. We usually let Mocha out in the wash area at the back of the house in the morning. After knocking the door, my wife placed Cocoa close to the door telling her Mocha was behind the door. Cocoa used her beak knocking the door twice. My wife laughed at Cocoa and told her how silly she was. Cocoa got mad, bit my wife on the face and flew away. :lol: Clever Cocoa!

90% of Mocha's mimicry that you heard on this vid was learnt from Cocoa.

Cocoa was so deeply engrossed playing with the back scratcher that she didn't even bother when I held her upside down by her wings and tail.

Shot some videos yesterday and today. Cocoa made a 40 feet flight.

For the past few days, I had been trying to shoot Cocoa flying without much success. Most of the pics turned out blur. I tried again this morning. I managed to get a few good ones. Poor Cocoa, she had to do a lot of flying for me to get some nice shots. So far these are my best flight shots.

1.5 years

Cocoa works very hard trying to stand on a bottle.

Pics of Cocoa spreading wings.

Birds are born to fly so I leave Cocoa that way.

It's a tough job to video Mocha flying. He flies too fast. And he is not harness trained because he hates the harness. Can't get him to fly like Cocoa. I'll see what I can do. Mynah can be friendly but not as socialize as parrot. The export of mynah is banned. It is not surprising that you can't get them in your country.

This is the 1st time Cocoa having a sugarcane treat. Video of Cocoa chewing sugarcane.

Cocoa is seen enjoying her coconut.

I captured a pic of a grey ghost.
