Tycos_mom Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Harley is got to be the sweetest boy on the face of this earth. He's so Gentle with me and even when he doesn't want to do something he doesn't bite he just pushes me away. He just loves to cuddle up he he lays his back against mt stomach and puts his head on my chest and looks up at me with a big Macaw smile and rubs his face and head all over my hands I hold his head in my hand and give him scritches and beaky rubs what a big sweet baby he is. He's a great eater he isn't fussy at all but I have found that he doesn't eat much of his seeds I guess he ate to many of them over the past few years and wants to eat something else. He's also not to big on mushy foods he eats them after he mixes it up with his pellets so that its got some crunch:laugh: He a great watch bird also if someone or something comes into the yard he will let me know right away. He's not a screamer but he definatly can SCREAM he knocked my daughter right out of bed the other day she thought the house was falling in until she realized it was just Harley I was 4 rooms away from him and it sounded like he was standing next to me. Thank goodness he doesn't do that very often his little squwaks to let me know somethings around are plenty loud enough for me and usually its just 1 squwak and then he's okay again. The only problem I do have is putting him back into his cage he likes to be out he I can't really blame him he was locked up in a 32x24x36tall cage for far to long now he just want to sit on top of his cage and chew up blocks of wood cardboard boxes and wicker baskets. and snuggle up to a few times a day he loves to play peek a boo and tug of war and learn new things I'm teaching him Hi five or hi four in his case he learns things really quickly. He can Talk a little he can say hello, I love you, comere and whatcha doin and want some. thats about all I've heard. He loves music and loves to dance and he's a really good dancer I'll try and get a video tape of him soon. Well I think that's about it for now. Here's a new Picture of him taken Today. {Love-0002012C} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joolesgreyuk Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Pat you are so lucky and so is Harley - to have you as his mom. It really makes you wonder if he actually ever had behaviour problems or if Harley was just deeply unhappy with his surroundings and/or the way he was treated. God bless you Pat, you are an inspiration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tycos_mom Posted August 13, 2009 Author Share Posted August 13, 2009 He's a pretty sweet guy alright I just love him so much. No his former owners have not asked about him at all. The day I picked him up she did ask if she could get a couple Pictures of him for her she did take one of him that night but I guess she doesn't have many. when I get a chance so I will do that this weekend for her.

JillyBeanz Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Harley has to be one of the luckiest, luckiest Macaws on this planet. You are one extra special person giving such a stunner a new home. He is sooooo lucky that you found him and the fact you put in all that work to bring him home. As per usual, I'm green with envy - he's absolutely gorgeous Pat - I love your photos of him - he's fabulous x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
