Sounds like you had a pretty nice time together. Congratulations.{Feel-good-00020114}
Thank you for writing this post. I had already decided that a harness was not something I would purchase. Your post helped to solidify that decision It made me realize another reason why the harness thing in general is not something I will purchase for my parrot. First of all there are so many uncontrollable factors when you are out in public, there is no way of knowing what is going to scare or freak them out. The risk of getting bitten by them is higher in my opinion because they might bite out of fear or even in order to protect their favourite human {meaning ME}. The other thing is that I wouldn't feel completely comfortable having my parrot fully exposed in public like that. You never know what type of people are paying attention and getting evil ideas to do something unscrupulous. I guess it's the same as being careful about who you invite into your HOME. I used to be really naive about this stuff and then someone who is alot older and alot more experienced than me spoke to me about being EXTREMELY cautious about who saw my parrot on the street. Sometimes it gives dishonest strangers the wrong idea and they may assume that you are very wealthy and who knows what else. All of this is just my humble opinion that I wanted to share. On the other hand as I type this I think using a harness just for walking around in one's private backyard sounds like a much safer idea.
