Meet the flock- Beni!!

Hello Again!
I'm not sure how many of you follow Barbara Heidenreich and her Good Bird Inc blog, (if you don't...you should!) but if you do/did I wanted to officially introduce you to Beni our Caninde Macaw.  We purchased Beni from Wendy a breeder out of Texas and once weaned he spent a few exciting months with Barbara working on some training.  Below is a video of Jessica working with Beni, she's training him a new behavior where the takes an object and carries it with him as he flies to another location and drops it in a bowl.  I apologize for the video, I must have had way too much coffee! 



Beni has been a great addition to the Kaytee Learning Center family!  We love him so much and so do visitors!  Since Beni is flighted, he does a great job flying from us to  visitor and it's such a thrill for them to have this beautiful, rare bird land on their arm.  Beni is a GREAT sport and we love him so much....although he loves us all...he LOVES Jessica! :)

Beni in action!
