Love you guys, I studied ornithology and that was nothing compared with how much you guys helped me with my birds love your program and my birds life your cook book! I got to say this shows you really really care for the birds and are willing to put aside your own doubts in pursuit of teaching. Keep being the positive awesome people you are!
Where did you study ornithology, please? My avian knowledge is what I’ve been learning and watching birds from a really early age, but I’d love to study a course on it, particularly if it’s certificated (actually preferable). The CLOSEST I’ve been able to actually study here in the UK are: Animal Behaviour and zoology, both cover birds very little cos those subjects are too broad a spectrum. They were enjoyable, BUT, though I ADORE ALL fauna, birds, particularly all parrots, are my serious passion. I have some books on parrot anatomy and behaviour. Some are too easy and some are really complicated science wise. Would love to do an advanced (if possible) ornithology course, something where I can email or FaceTime the tutor questions would be ideal! Sorry for the ramble 🥱
@@asseyez-vous6492 usually if you want a specific degree or to take specific classes you have to first get your doctorate in zoology and then your PhD in ornithology. I’m a chiropterologist, a bat scientist, I had to get my PhD in chiropterolgoy first before I could house and care for vampire bats which is the species I specialize in.
I really appreciate you repeating yourself over and over again to her to let her know you were serious & you care about what you do & you weren’t there to play. She is known for being problematic with her birds, so I appreciated you trying really hard to be clear with her. I could see your inner fear & concern, we watching feel the same! 💕🦜
You guys are TRULY professionals. You handled this situation so amazingly well. It was pretty uncomfortable to watch the initial meeting footage. I have absolutely had clients like that. This truly shows you have amazing people AND training skills
I'm glad you held your ground with her. At first I didn't really think she was taking you serious, but after you kept repeating yourself I think that helped. I really like how you all don't want to be dragged into drama, etc. 😊
I love this video!! Knowing you both, it was such an enjoyable video for me!! I think it's so amazing and humble that Carolin reached to you and fantastic that you received her openly! I think this video gave a lot of great insight in to safe free flight and and also why you don't teach with online videos. Very responsible, I agree. I also l love how you both gave her a chance and got to see the real Carolin, who has a ton of heart and is a very loyal friend. This video was fantastic!! You guys are amazing!
Marlene I bet if you are her friend, for real, she must worth something but she should be FULLY AWARE people see her videos and get the *wrong idea about her, or more so seeing the NOT REAL CAROLINE* that one who does CLICKBAIT on expenses of her viewers, bad, high voltage scarry sh#% all the time literaly, and lots of (fake???!) drama, or saying stuff like "ohhhh no I just lost this and that much money" when she lost her baby bird,instead thinking about "holy c@#!^ I just lost my baby boy o m g no"... all those negative stuff she does all the time cloud pepole ability to feel her, or see her "real personality", as you say you do, and as we supposedly saw here via the help of J from Birdtricks who was upfront and did not allow any of it on this time × (and i'm super super glad to know she has a better more responseble caring posetive less dramatic and "clif hanger" style personality, since before it happened I got to levels of anxiety and anger by watching her films, everytime, thinking that is just who and how she is. Very happy to see your comment and this video, which in she was not the way she is always on her channel) All I can say I TRULLY HOPE TO SEE HER MORE THIS WAY, less the old ways... she can learn a thing or two from your vibes, and from Birdtricks themselves. Lots of love and respect, Pesach sameach פסח שמח מותק Val #Israelisniffer
@@valprem6401 People like you who attack others b/c you may not like someone or their style is what causes other's to stay away. Apparently you believe you are perfect. Your not. We all make mistakes, publicly shredding someone b/c you don't like their style is so wrong on many levels. Jamie Leigh & her partner are professionals & they know what their doing. They don't need your malicious attacks to do their job.
It's not stuck up. Honestly it's love and caring. Being afraid for her bird and your own it's an emotional nightmare as far as losing a bird that follows her bird or her bird alone even. It is being a protective caring bird parent. Never second guess your gut Jamie you have a great big heart and it's what all your fans love about y'all.
Lots. I love animal behavior and positive training, but have no experience with birds. It's really neat, informative, and interesting to see the techniques I use with dogs and cats applied to a different species. It sparks my creativity for my own clients as well.
Ok. I at one point wanted to be a part of her subscribers, but there were many things that threw me off. I shared my feelings with her, as did many others too, but she ignored us all at that point in time. I'll tell you straight up I love watching drama, but I honestly don't want anything bad to happen to anyone. I wish the best for her and her beautiful birds, it's ultimately for the better FOR EVERYONE. I wish she takes this seriously. No matter if she wants it or not but she is an influencer, and she has to step up.
Im with you on your opinions i dont wanna be rude with my opinions but im really nervous about this im sensing drama and chaos. I think this particular situation should be kept away off camera coz if anything goes wrong i dont want her to get grief from viewers. And anything to be reflected bad on dave and jamie until all the level one training established and no embarrassment for her happens i feel bad saying this coz i like caroline i think her hearts in the right place but i dont think her head is sometimes i wish her the best of luck
@@123catscrazy yeah I think everyone is being smart about what they publish, and so far the comments I've seen have been constructive and that's how I intended mine, too. She has the charisma and personality to pull views and subscribers without all the made up/actual drama, I think she would infact do much better with just being real and leaving all the drama and accusations behind. She's entertaining enough on her own. And the bird community seems pretty intelligent. For the most part. I think it ends up being positive overall for all involved.
@@BirdTricks he looked so cute, getting all poofy on your shoulder and snuggling right in! Caroline has some really pretty birds as well, but Comet just has such amazing colors!
There is also another bird youtuber who could really use help from you. Tyler Nolan, he get's complains from his neighbours because of his screaming macaws, and also has a resque macaw who has territory agression/ cage agression. So maybe, you, Birdtricks can step in? Ofcourse he has to ask for it by his own and already people mentioned you. So you know what's going on and maybe what to expect. :-)
@@ew2789 It's not only that, one of his macaws has agression, it's a resque. And also his birds freak out when he is leaving home for work and tatoo convetions and a friend is taking care if them, then they scream more. You can train them to learn other behaviour imo than the screaming.
I don't think she cares much, it looked as if she was more interested filming you than listening and having an adult conversation. It was actually just plain rude.
I noticed that she didn't even seem to confirm that she didn't lose birds for views. I agree, she was more interested in filming, than listening and confirming that her birds were safe to fly.
I don't get how Caroline even has any subs it's sickening she's not good at all and this video proves it she just wanted to film with you guys! There just something about her that seems she just don't care! 💯💯watched one of her videos and it was sickening!! 💯
I think it’s really good that you guys went with your gut feelings to help Caroline. Regardless of what she’s done and what people feel - it’s all about helping those birds. I think it’s great she asked for help... but hopefully she continues to be open to maybe getting proper coaching from you guys.
I'm glad you left the consult for her to post and choose what she is comfortable sharing. High-five for being considerate. I am sure she cares for her birds very much. Her titles are a choice she's made to drive views, but could be a turn-off to many in the bird community. I'm sure her time with y'all will be beneficial to her and her flock. :)
Bird tricks are so respectful with the way they have treated everything about doing this vid and helping this lady and her birds. Really impressive people-handling, communication and psychological skills. Awesome work, you guys!
she tends to free fly her macaw hope at this park and she always complains if someone is there with there dog. or if a dog shows an interest in hope she thinks it's going to kill him.
She ain’t she literally recordeds everything people in parks (THE DOG PARK) complaining about how there dogs come after her bird:/ tf? Then she records the people with out there premision 🙂
Caroline's birds keep flying away. I think it was 6 times at last count, about 6 months ago when I stopped watching her channel. She tries to free fly, but she's utterly clueless. I do hope you can help her.. or rather, her birds.
@@Alveiren Well, she gets a lot of criticism and for good reason. I know she loves her birds and all that, but she's careless and I get the feeling her channel is more about her. One thing that really made me mad one time was when she generally referred to veterinarians as vampires who kill birds, or something like that. Highly irresponsible on her part, especially to new parrot owners. Or when one of her birds died, she had the time to set up the camera and begin crying on clue before recording a video of her emergency call to a vet clinic or whatever it was. I mean, she used the opportunity to make a video.
RebornThroughHate thats truly sad. Shes def an attention seeking drama queen. Thats why i stopped watching her channel. I want to watch trainers that i can learn something constructive from, Bird Tricks and Marlene McCohen are the 2 best sources . Very professional, knowledgeable and fun . I love to watch free flight videos because theyre just beautiful doing what birds are born to do,fly fly fly 😀💗
So glad you guys were able to connect with Caroline. She really does love her birds and her commitment to Marlene when Picasso first went missing was wonderful. Great to see your video with Marlene the other day, and it is wonderful of you two to help Caroline. You guys really are amazing!! Thank you for all of us that learn so much from you
i have seen her vids. the losing of birds is alot because she dosent do the danger evavuating u do. drones, preditorbirds and strong winds is so much of the loses.
Im stunned she *DOES KNOWS SHES CLICKBAITING* thats horrible in my opinion. +Faking some of the fly offs and drama for views, knowingly!? Thats just crying "wolf" untill it becomes real! Ohhh man. P.s No video of consoltation on her triggering Channel yet. Is there suppoused to be one? P.s p.s Im really proud of you for trying to get to her. For real. Even with cams in your face. Even when she deflects. Seriusly. Thank you guys. Super profecional. Her birds will benefit from it. so thank you
Val Prem the consultation videos are in the works - we did a few different sections working with her and Glory to get to the true root of the problem. I believe she said she made about four videos from our time together so I’ll be sure to let you guys know of the ones with the consult. Tonight she’s posting one about this meeting from her perspective.
@@BirdTricks YOU ARE SO SO SO AWESOME!!!!! IM PROUD TO KNOW YOU J(and Dave of course) I could tell from your body languge youve felt uncomfortble but you still repeat it again and again to be clear with her, to be nice but firm,and you just tried to get the best of the meet up, to get tp the roots as you said. It takes a REAL PRO to do that, and staying posetive altough you werent sure of the situation, and I have noticed it all, just so youd know! Thank you, again!!!!! Lots of love and good energies and hope too 😉😋😎 Your Israeli Fan and student Val 💖💋
She seems more worried about her vid content than having a convo about helping her birds ..or is that just a UA-camr thing? Lol 🤨 idk...Caroline; while she has good intentions for her birds, always makes me uneasy with her vids.
Think that's just a UA-camrs thing. Do it long enough and you get sort of paranoid that everything's working correctly so you don't have to spend 6 hours editing. Especially when don't have a 2nd person to run the camera.
Carissa’s Nest Carolin’s ego is huge, every one of her videos starts with a clickbait thumbnail, and we basically see “Hopey” free flying in every video and Love and Glory barely make appearances in the videos. Her birds are beautiful but poor Hope seems to nearly get “lost” or “attacked” in every one of her videos. I feel like she is really out there and hope that this video helps her with her ego with selling merch than actually caring for her bird’s health and safety! NOT!!! Jamie and Dave are very responsible with their birds and have taught their birds how to free fly the correct way. Carolin has trained Hope to fly but the poor bird flies away and hangs out in trees a and gets lost half the time. She uses a GPS on Hope in case he gets lost and seems to have to use it way too many times!!
Part of the problem with living in a big city, especially in California, is that there are a lot of weirdos. So you might actually get your pet stolen or tampered with, unfortunately. And there’s also not a huge amount of open space. Just lots of public parks. And they’re filled with homeless people and also ravens and hawks. If you watch some of the free flight videos of bird trainers in San Francisco (where I live) they’re always losing their birds and having to chase them for miles and miles. It’s why I am reluctant to get a parrot while living here and want to move away to a different state before getting a parrot.
One comment I saw Carolin make on one of her videos, I believe it was when Love flew off, was something like “I’m the only youtuber who shows the whole truth of free flight” I’ve always wanted to watch her videos and occasionally I do but that comment, the fly offs and the way she talks about dog owners at the park sometimes have really stopped me from watching her channel regularly. If those things stop I will definitely subscribe to her again.
And I’m glad you guys are offering help and helping her. Based on that comment it seems like she didn’t think it was possible to not have her birds fly off randomly.
I worked at Animal Kingdom as a photographer. The trainers had a macaw named Bailey that took off into the park. All day through the park I heard Baaaailey...C'mon Bailey! His main handler was in my area by the Tree of Life. Now, I know it wasn't really funny but....Bailey would do a fly over and fly away laughing. That little stinker KNEW what he was doing! When left for the day she was still in the same spot and you could heard Bailey laughing and singing in the Tree of Life. When I came back the next day SHE WAS STILL THERE!! Rumpled, tired and still calling for him. I actually got the shot when he finally quit torturing her and came back. I did a rapid fire burst and made a montage for her later on. She actually cried when he finally landed safely back into arms. In a frenzy of hugging and kissing she told him what a naughty bird he was and that he was the worst bird ever lol. I don't recall her name but I was in complete awe of her dedication and love for this bird. It must be so hard to be a trainer for a large park like Animal Kingdom. How can help but fall in love with all of the birds? Heck I was just a photographer and I fell in love with them. (Actually I kinda got in trouble over a cockatoo and getting too friendly with her lol) Bird people are like horse people. The animals become your whole world from your waking thought to your final thought at the end of the day. God Bless you all for your love of these wonderful, wacky, intelligent, often frustrating animals.
I am happy you helped her. For all the reasons you gave. She really wanted help otherwise she wouldn't have gone to the last minute effort that she did. I IMMEDIATELY reached out trying to connect both of you when I saw the very real issues she was having. She needed real quality assistance with this bird or the bird was NOT going to have a very good future and that's why this community needs to be close. The intelligent creatures DESERVE our help. We chose to make them pets so we should accept the sometimes hard situations that coincide with owning a wild animal and forcing them to be domestic when it not in their nature. They are intelligent and self aware. They deserve to be treated as such.
You guys are the best!! Your care, respect and love for the birds you help is such a good example to everyone and shows how important it is to do things properly!!
Wondering why Caroline's video is set to private.... Very odd I'll never get over how cute y'all are ❤️ they way you two look at each other is so sweet and full of love 😊
This was the collab everyone was waiting for. Thank you so much for working with Carolin and emphasizing to her about the safety aspects of free flying. Hopefully she can continue to progress in the future for her birds’ safety.
Im surprised Caroline didnt accused you of trying to steal her bird😏 . She likes to think everyone that touches or look at her birds wants to steal them.
I love Jamie and David, but yes I think Caroline does pretend to accuse people of stealing her bird for clickbait and I wouldn’t be surprised if she hired out of work actors in LA sometimes to play the “bird thief”
If you can't say anything nice, perhaps keep it to yourself. Words can hurt. Carolyn is a kind soul with a big heart. If you don't like her style of video, watch something else. No need to be negative and condescending. Life is to short to judge others. Judge yourself!
You have a beautiful soul my sister. I strongly feel people should understand why some people look for money, fame, attention, etc. They seek these things bc there is something inside of them that tells them they alone are not enough, they alone are not worthy. When others see this behavior and tear someone down, they become part of the problem and reenforce these beliefs of not being "good enough" in the person therefore contributing to the continuation of the undesired behaviors. The best way to help those who are hurting is with love, never criticism or bad mouthing. But you were a perfect example of kindness and compassion with personal boundaries and strength. I think you helped more than the birds this time. Thank you. Blessings 🖤
okay...i have to admitt... when i see your wonderful birds fly...my tears starts to fall...it is SO beautiful! That is the way they are meant to be...free, fly, feel the wind in their feathers... It is breathtaking
So I used to be on Caroline’s channel but I’m not anymore; her videos used to make very uncomfortable and she can be very judgemental at times and yes the fly offs gave me anxiety, I’m only half way through this video, even tho I’m not a fan of hers anymore I really do love you guys and I hope you can help her 🇦🇺❤️🇦🇺❤️🇦🇺❤️😊❤️
The look on Jamieleigh’s face at about 19:20 seconds is pure rapture as she’s watching the bird fly. It’s a look that says “hell yeah, this is what a bird’s life is supposed to be!” Amazing video, as always ❤️
I'm loving all of your content so much lately!! The videos from group classes, the new podcast and now these collaborations are really phenomenal! I've been researching and planning to get my first large parrot for 10 years now and I've finally entered the actual phase of budgeting/saving up for the purchase and moving into a bigger apartment so I'll be adopting this bird later this year and your training and care related videos have helped me so much! My little budgies are indoor flight trained thanks to you two!
Great video. Im really looking forward to this series. Its says alot about Caroline that she is a known parrot person but wants to learn MORE to benefit her birds.
❤️ BirdTricks! I wish my husband was as passionate about animals as I am. The two of you are very lucky to have each other and to share a passion. Lots of hugs from Michigan to the BirdTrick family.
I know nothing about birds but seeing Carolin in this video and looking at the video titles on her channel... alarm bells start ringing. It’s good that you try to help her. As long as she doesn’t present it as some kind of endorsement.
Jamie and Dave, this is the most beautiful thing I ever saw, when Comet and the other girl(not Caroline's bird) were flying and runnig with your birds! Thank for helping Caroline Too! We are all learning from you!!!
Just watching your conversation in the truck about your interaction with this lady changed me a little bit give me a little bit of a different Outlook in life it's weird but just something that conversation it's just I look at the world different now thank you
she does that because her English understanding is not that good, so she records it so that she can go over it again at home and really understand what they were teaching her. It does look disturbing though, but she's doing it to better help her birds with what she's being taught.
I love your channel! I found you from Marlene page and watched your videos. I really love how you are determined to teach people and even when it's awkward make your stand. Also the driving commentary is hilarious! I was thinking how you said in the interview you do if for your birds. I REALLY didn't get it until I saw Comet out there!! He was smiling and so happy!! Awesome job!🐦💜
I'm glad you could find it in your heart to help her. I'm glad she asked for help. Through experience of my own I'm jaded, had a family member ask for help, over and over and over again, while destroying themselves and the rest of us, some people won't change. Let's hope she's not one of those.
This video and your explanation says more about your character than any other. I only wish we were closer to really use your talents with our Sun. Especially after watching you with your three girls.
Watching this again this morning because my Quaker LOVES watching the birds free fly. As I watched you clean the back of Caroline's shirt, I realized that we need to have a line of t-shirts made specially for people who live with parrots - with spots And splats on the back behind each shoulder, on the shoulder, and a couple on the chest! Then if it happens no one will know the difference until you get to a place where you can change. And if it doesn't happen (doesn't? Are you kidding?!), it just looks like a bird owner's joke! 😉🤭😆🤭
Just 2 minutes into the video and I am glad you are going to help Caroline. She needs a lot of help with her birds. Is he has lost her birds more than I can remember. I unsubscribed from her channel because I got tired of her self induced drama.
20:00 - That landing was spectacular and I absolutely love the use of slow motion. This bit really gives you a great look at how their tail feathers are used when approaching a landing point.
Loved the fact that you asked her UP FRONT "are you losing them on purpuse" and is it for show..so much DRAMA.. Not trying to stir crap up. Not a hater.. I wouldnt have a problem with her with the fact she freeflies. Thats great...its how and why and when and with what aknolage,and what reason, and more so when she losses sight its immidetly "how to loose 15,000 in one second" not "Holyssssss!#%^ my baby bird!!!!!!my baby featherd kid!!!" And all the mean hatefull shaming random pepole no blur faced CLICKBAIT titles and DRAMA all the damn time, so much crying wolf and blaming others, but still when someome says something true but that she does not like, its the negativity SHE is runing on, not to mention how the birds are situated in the house. We all see it because she films it, so it becomes EVERYONES BUSINESS, all of a sudden,now its her writing a book on how to be the best bird owner/trainer/freeflyer in the whole wrold while everyone else are just bashing and haters???? Come on!! She needs to get help!!!!!!!!!! Asap.....from the pros, and ACTUALLY LISTEN Im just sad for the birds, tbh they are so sweet and lovely, like any birds are. I feel bad for them being in the niddel middle point of this whole DORAAAAAAMA S@$%STORM. 🙄😶 im just wishing she WOULD have listened to you and Marlene. And alllllll the commenters under her videos. Some day it might not be a wolf cry , not caring and relaying on Gps alone, thinking she knows the best, but real danger they wouldnt be back from, its super sad. Im *REALLY* hoping Caroline listen to you for her sake of her birds.
.. And she dose what she can do best for her birds. If you have Want to say something that bothers you, just dont say it and keep it to yourself. I bet if you have a bird you wouldn't be able to do the things she trys to do for her birds and make them famous. She freeflys her birds to make them remember the wild. And btw CHILL.
@@yes6282 are you refering to me? If so, you just lost your bet dear. I do not have a hen is this cock fight so to say, but I do raise birds along with kids and dogs. I happen to have a flock of only disabled birds of many breeds, including parrots (which with the hardest one yet, the only one that I dabbled the thought of her being too disabled to be able to fly but with the help of dear Jamie of Birdtricks, found out she is capable of flight and now is flying!!!but thats just a side note) they are all flight trained, recalled trained, and are free and are integrated in the local nature, doing "at liberty free flight" so they go in and out of my house as pleased in most of the day light time ,and at evening or activities we do, they are included like any "pet" birds are, they sleep and eat inside and get quality time, each and together day after day. Some do tricks but level isnt great, as I only take in disabled birds that are not baught but more or so forgotten discarded abandoned and rescued or relinqished to my care, they have got no one to believe in them and was put of in the "to sleep and put down" list. So..... some just cant. And its ok,now they are forever babies in my flock and they are doing well for years to come, almost all (aside that baby africqn that in in training now) are well trained, harness and flying diapers too. Because they join me and my child at everything we do outside of the safe zone or most safe zone at my yard parameters... they are not caged at all, they have spots they like in my home,they each chose and keeps. So no, im not like caroline, and im not trying to be, I even liked her contant at some point, im not in a chalange with anyone either, she does her thing, birdstricks does thiers and I do me, but I do *have birds and I do freefly almost all of them* . I care for hers and about what she does since birds are pure awesome, even the most hard ones just need the proper care to be flowering and I know she loves them or shed not get them,and so many. I dont have any problem wirh her freeflying either, obviusly.... I did have some issues with stuff shes said or done in past, and I would love to see her grow and change.
I think it was a good thing to help Caroline. I had been concerned for her and her birds with the trouble she has had and the decisions she's made with them so far, so I had hoped someone would be able to help her out! Glory has some issues that are a challenge for Caroline to deal with, so I know Jamie and David can help both her and Glory, and that is all that matters. Helping Caroline matters, too! I know there are people who do not like Caroline and how she handles the birds, but this is not about her, it is about her BIRDS. Those who tried to tell Jamie and David not to help her were doing a terrible disservice to those birds. Never assume that a bird owner is beyond help or hope due to your own personal distaste for their actions on their channel, people. You only hurt the birds that person owns. LOVED when David got on the Segway and Comet flew to him on it! So much fun! Love to you Jamie & David! One of these days when I have more money (hopefully pretty soon) I would love to have you help me with my Timneh Grey who is 23 and never learned to fly properly when he was fledgling. He has had a rocky past with previous owners, so he has some hurdles to fly over, so to speak.
This was BEAUTIFUL to watch, so wonderful to see someone who are just about what is best for the birds but also are so kind to the humans... Very touching❣️
You were very honest abt free flying with Caroline. Love Comet...cooling of feathers are gorgeous. The treats you use as a reward, are they something particular or is it just a food that each bird really likes but only used as a treat when training.
Im so glad you did this video. A little before I found your channel I had seen her video where her macaw Hope got chased off by some ravens and she had to spend hours searching for her and I thought it was a happy ending. Then I watched more and realized she is extremely irresponsible and despite it happening in almost every video I've seen, she doesn't change the way she flies her birds. I always wondered how you guys would react to her constant behaviour, she bases a lot of her flights on luck instead of training.
i just love how real y’all are, I got to say y’all are the most unproblematic UA-camrs I have ever sat eye on. I’m getting a cockatiel in a week and watching your videos just was a lifesaver and your seasonal diet is what I’m putting my cockatiel on and the training process of y’all’s I’m using with her I am also see if i can free flight train her, but not anytime soon probably 7-10 years so i can know how she is with that stuff!
I don’t have birds. Never kept birds. Never had the circumstances to be able to give a bird the high level of care I believe they deserve. I love them though, so so much. When I see them free flying... I don’t know, my heart... It just explodes with emotion, for the bird. It’s absolutely beautiful. They swoop, they glide, they ride the wind, their muscles are pumping... Its just so stunningly natural. It gets to me every single time. Thank you so much, for all the amazing work that you do.
I just discovered you guys. You guys are amazing with the birds. I absolutely LOVE Morgans story. I have a Scarlett and a Buffins. ( Mo and Dorffa) Dorf ( the Buffins ) is a rescue. He is missing 2 toes on 1 of his foot from abuse. It took a very long time and patience to earn his trust. I thought I was doing good but after watching your videos I now have a lot better insight so I can do better for both birds. I thought the birds were just being birds but, now after watching your vids I see a lot of certin behavior patterns that I can work with them easily and improve with them. Thank you guys and keep the vids coming.
Thanks so much you 2 I really enjoyed this video. I love the passion between you both and your birds and the help and advice you give . I totally get what you were saying at the beginning but Caroline is so sweet and although a little scatty (In the nicest of ways) she really does love and adore her parrots. once again Great video 👍👏👏🥰🦜♥️🦜♥️
If I could like this video twice or more to show you guys how much I love and appriciate your work, I would! 😘🤘👌❤❤❤❤❤thank you for being *YOU* . Going to the most hard challenges facing head on,in transperent way, wanting good, doing good, and trying to save the world one bird owner at a time!
Good for you! You have a strong mind and a good will heart! It takes all of us to teach each other things good and bad. Your heart is in the right place and Caroline isn't a dummy, she knows what other people are saying about her and she handles it with style and grace.
Its unfortunate her video is private now. I did go to her channel and see a lot of irresponsibility. Bless you guys for trying to help. The birds can only be as good as their handlers.
I don't know why people were hating on either channel. Caroline does care for her birds better than most people I have met.... sometimes things happen when you have animals but she tries to give them the best quality of life and the fact she is trying to get proper training as well as the exotics care and behavior is always evolving. Any owner should be constantly researching and evolving
Comet chasing Dave on the Segway...papa this is soooo funnn chasing you on the Segway. Can we get one pleeeeez, can we, can we??? Luv your birds and how you interact with them. Thanks for sharing💕🌷💕
I believe Carolin loves her birds however she cares more about views than the safety of her parrots! You need to help her because I have watched her channel and she truly lacks the proper training and dedication for proper free flight! She probably just met you guys to get views on her channel. She is just filming your conversations the entire time! She needs to get it together😠.
Estie we did go out to lunch with cameras down but our initial meeting was definitely a lot of camera use. I’m hoping the consultation brings more light to everyone 💛
The only thing Caroline loves about her birds is the amount of attention they get her. Thats all. If everyone would ignore her the birds would be out of there faster than last years xmasscards.
The more viewers and subscribers Caroline gets, comes into UA-cam money, she probably uses the money to help her birds, she's a nice person, I don't really know what to think
@@popsicle1033 Easy: she only got the birds to get internet-fame. Once f.e. ferrets are the next hype she will get a few of those, she is that type of person. If you want to watch someone who is NOT in it for the money try WingsNpaws (I hope I got the name right) - he loves his bird (Smokey) and just wants to share what he knows without all the draamaaa and moneygrabbing.
I love your videos iv always love parrots since I was little and now I finally have my very own cockatiel I had her for about 3 weeks she likes to watch your videos with me :D watching you helped me train her.
Hi Jamieleigh! One of your videos popped up in my suggested videos, and I clicked in part because I’m a parrot lover and in part because I totally recognized you from somewhere. Just realized that I rooted for you in LiveJournal’s Next Top Model many many years back LOL! :) Anyway, I have been binge watching your videos and have been inspired to try new things with my birds (starting with target training!). Thanks so much for putting this all out there and for being so real about the process.
I will always ALWAYS welcome advice. Not just now, as a new-ish bird owner, but for my next bird and for free flying my flock (flock of ONE right now) and when I finally buy a house and can have outdoor aviaries and.. well, anything. Even things I think I know, I'm sure there's better ways to do things that just won't occur to me. Whenever I think Cyrano and I are ready, I will definitely be reaching out for the first steps of learning to free fly him. He's starting to do small recalls from his cage to my hand when he sees the treat in the catching hand. At first he would fly off if I moved at all, now I can turn my wrist so he lands on my finger. Still not stepping up, though, but that's for the clicker and not a lure. We're making serious progress weekly! And it's all because of you guys and your understanding of birds and that it's the human that needs the training, really, lol. Can't wait to eventually get to free flying!
Love you guys, I studied ornithology and that was nothing compared with how much you guys helped me with my birds love your program and my birds life your cook book!
I got to say this shows you really really care for the birds and are willing to put aside your own doubts in pursuit of teaching.
Keep being the positive awesome people you are!
Where did you study ornithology, please? My avian knowledge is what I’ve been learning and watching birds from a really early age, but I’d love to study a course on it, particularly if it’s certificated (actually preferable). The CLOSEST I’ve been able to actually study here in the UK are: Animal Behaviour and zoology, both cover birds very little cos those subjects are too broad a spectrum. They were enjoyable, BUT, though I ADORE ALL fauna, birds, particularly all parrots, are my serious passion. I have some books on parrot anatomy and behaviour. Some are too easy and some are really complicated science wise. Would love to do an advanced (if possible) ornithology course, something where I can email or FaceTime the tutor questions would be ideal! Sorry for the ramble 🥱
I think you are looking because u secretly want one 😊
@@asseyez-vous6492 I studied at the ornithology program at Cornell so sorry for the late response
@@asseyez-vous6492 usually if you want a specific degree or to take specific classes you have to first get your doctorate in zoology and then your PhD in ornithology. I’m a chiropterologist, a bat scientist, I had to get my PhD in chiropterolgoy first before I could house and care for vampire bats which is the species I specialize in.
I really appreciate you repeating yourself over and over again to her to let her know you were serious & you care about what you do & you weren’t there to play. She is known for being problematic with her birds, so I appreciated you trying really hard to be clear with her. I could see your inner fear & concern, we watching feel the same! 💕🦜
Lori’s Hartland omg hi
I agree here
Konner Skelton Sings hello!
Lori’s Hartland y’all should bring petfest to Mississippi just saying
Agree, finally somebody who just saying the way it is. And if this was in the Netherlands this would even be very nicely put
You guys are TRULY professionals. You handled this situation so amazingly well. It was pretty uncomfortable to watch the initial meeting footage. I have absolutely had clients like that. This truly shows you have amazing people AND training skills
100% the professionalism Jamie and Dave showed was admirable, considering the woman’s mannerisms towards them.
I'm glad you held your ground with her. At first I didn't really think she was taking you serious, but after you kept repeating yourself I think that helped. I really like how you all don't want to be dragged into drama, etc. 😊
I'm so glad you asked her about her click bait video titles and your concern about "adding drama" possibly at the risk of the birds. I'm nervous. 😬
I love this video!! Knowing you both, it was such an enjoyable video for me!! I think it's so amazing and humble that Carolin reached to you and fantastic that you received her openly! I think this video gave a lot of great insight in to safe free flight and and also why you don't teach with online videos. Very responsible, I agree. I also l love how you both gave her a chance and got to see the real Carolin, who has a ton of heart and is a very loyal friend. This video was fantastic!! You guys are amazing!
Thank you for bringing the two of us together! 😘
Marlene I bet if you are her friend, for real, she must worth something but she should be FULLY AWARE people see her videos and get the *wrong idea about her, or more so seeing the NOT REAL CAROLINE* that one who does CLICKBAIT on expenses of her viewers, bad, high voltage scarry sh#% all the time literaly, and lots of (fake???!) drama, or saying stuff like "ohhhh no I just lost this and that much money" when she lost her baby bird,instead thinking about "holy c@#!^ I just lost my baby boy o m g no"... all those negative stuff she does all the time cloud pepole ability to feel her, or see her "real personality", as you say you do, and as we supposedly saw here via the help of J from Birdtricks who was upfront and did not allow any of it on this time
× (and i'm super super glad to know she has a better more responseble caring posetive less dramatic and "clif hanger" style personality, since before it happened I got to levels of anxiety and anger by watching her films, everytime, thinking that is just who and how she is. Very happy to see your comment and this video, which in she was not the way she is always on her channel)
All I can say I TRULLY HOPE TO SEE HER MORE THIS WAY, less the old ways... she can learn a thing or two from your vibes, and from Birdtricks themselves.
Lots of love and respect,

@Shelby Morgan what??
You see the good in everyone.
@@valprem6401
People like you who attack others b/c you may not like someone or their style is what causes other's to stay away. Apparently you believe you are perfect. Your not. We all make mistakes, publicly shredding someone b/c you don't like their style is so wrong on many levels. Jamie Leigh & her partner are professionals & they know what their doing. They don't need your malicious attacks to do their job.
It's not stuck up. Honestly it's love and caring. Being afraid for her bird and your own it's an emotional nightmare as far as losing a bird that follows her bird or her bird alone even. It is being a protective caring bird parent. Never second guess your gut Jamie you have a great big heart and it's what all your fans love about y'all.
Thank you 😘
How many people watch these videos but don’t have bird
Lots. I love animal behavior and positive training, but have no experience with birds. It's really neat, informative, and interesting to see the techniques I use with dogs and cats applied to a different species. It sparks my creativity for my own clients as well.
Living vicariously...no way my lifestyle would be healthy for one!
I don’t but I’m studying for a blue and gold in the future 😂
Moi
I don't have one now but have in the past. I do however want one in the future but watching now 🐦 less. 🙃
Gosh. I'm halfway through and I'm stressed. I get so stressed watching Caroline's vids. Thank you for being upfront with her.
Ok. I at one point wanted to be a part of her subscribers, but there were many things that threw me off. I shared my feelings with her, as did many others too, but she ignored us all at that point in time. I'll tell you straight up I love watching drama, but I honestly don't want anything bad to happen to anyone. I wish the best for her and her beautiful birds, it's ultimately for the better FOR EVERYONE. I wish she takes this seriously. No matter if she wants it or not but she is an influencer, and she has to step up.
Im with you on your opinions i dont wanna be rude with my opinions but im really nervous about this im sensing drama and chaos. I think this particular situation should be kept away off camera coz if anything goes wrong i dont want her to get grief from viewers. And anything to be reflected bad on dave and jamie until all the level one training established and no embarrassment for her happens i feel bad saying this coz i like caroline i think her hearts in the right place but i dont think her head is sometimes i wish her the best of luck
@@123catscrazy yeah I think everyone is being smart about what they publish, and so far the comments I've seen have been constructive and that's how I intended mine, too. She has the charisma and personality to pull views and subscribers without all the made up/actual drama, I think she would infact do much better with just being real and leaving all the drama and accusations behind. She's entertaining enough on her own. And the bird community seems pretty intelligent. For the most part. I think it ends up being positive overall for all involved.
Comet's close up flying videos are absolutely stunning.
JollyJoker Pansy he’s such a stud 😍💛 can’t wait to take him out flying more!
@@BirdTricks he looked so cute, getting all poofy on your shoulder and snuggling right in! Caroline has some really pretty birds as well, but Comet just has such amazing colors!
Yes, his colouring is so beautiful, especially in the sun where it highlights it so beautifully ❤️
I am not a fan of Caroline, but as a bird trainer it is your duty to help bird owners who solicit your help... So you did the right thing.
I thought you should help her. I pushed for this. I'm glad you guys did your best.
There is also another bird youtuber who could really use help from you. Tyler Nolan, he get's complains from his neighbours because of his screaming macaws, and also has a resque macaw who has territory agression/ cage agression. So maybe, you, Birdtricks can step in? Ofcourse he has to ask for it by his own and already people mentioned you. So you know what's going on and maybe what to expect. :-)
A lot of macaws are just generally noisy. It's one of those things you have to deal with if you have a macaw.
@@ew2789 It's not only that, one of his macaws has agression, it's a resque. And also his birds freak out when he is leaving home for work and tatoo convetions and a friend is taking care if them, then they scream more. You can train them to learn other behaviour imo than the screaming.
@@LindaEll89 wait is he the one with the shamrock macaw and Catalina macaw?
@@ew2789 Yeah
He is a new bird parent snd means well... id love to see a collab with him.
Birdtricks saving the world one bird at a time!!
I don't think she cares much, it looked as if she was more interested filming you than listening and having an adult conversation. It was actually just plain rude.
I agree with you on that. I have noticed she is like that in her videos. It's annoying.
Yep
I noticed that she didn't even seem to confirm that she didn't lose birds for views. I agree, she was more interested in filming, than listening and confirming that her birds were safe to fly.
I don't get how Caroline even has any subs it's sickening she's not good at all and this video proves it she just wanted to film with you guys! There just something about her that seems she just don't care! 💯💯watched one of her videos and it was sickening!! 💯
I got the same the feeling
I think it’s really good that you guys went with your gut feelings to help Caroline. Regardless of what she’s done and what people feel - it’s all about helping those birds.
I think it’s great she asked for help... but hopefully she continues to be open to maybe getting proper coaching from you guys.
Maybe New homes would be best for those poor birds
I'm glad you left the consult for her to post and choose what she is comfortable sharing. High-five for being considerate. I am sure she cares for her birds very much. Her titles are a choice she's made to drive views, but could be a turn-off to many in the bird community. I'm sure her time with y'all will be beneficial to her and her flock. :)
Bird tricks are so respectful with the way they have treated everything about doing this vid and helping this lady and her birds. Really impressive people-handling, communication and psychological skills. Awesome work, you guys!
I’ve never even heard about this Caroline girl, but she doesn’t seem like a very good bird owner.
she tends to free fly her macaw hope at this park and she always complains if someone is there with there dog. or if a dog shows an interest in hope she thinks it's going to kill him.
Maybe shes gonna get better with Birdtricks help
She ain’t she literally recordeds everything people in parks (THE DOG PARK) complaining about how there dogs come after her bird:/ tf? Then she records the people with out there premision 🙂
She isn't!
The woman is W H A C K
She's one of the weirdest people on UA-cam and not the entertaining kind of weird, just plain weird
Caroline knows exactly what she's doing, she needs to stop acting like a victim all the time.
Her birds are out of control. Ever see a parent in the grocery store with 2 kids running around throwing stuff off the shelves and screaming...
Natural bird behavior you got a bird not a fucking grown up.
Caroline's birds keep flying away. I think it was 6 times at last count, about 6 months ago when I stopped watching her channel. She tries to free fly, but she's utterly clueless. I do hope you can help her.. or rather, her birds.
Lol the humans are the ones who need the help. You had it right the first time.
@@Alveiren Well, she gets a lot of criticism and for good reason. I know she loves her birds and all that, but she's careless and I get the feeling her channel is more about her. One thing that really made me mad one time was when she generally referred to veterinarians as vampires who kill birds, or something like that. Highly irresponsible on her part, especially to new parrot owners. Or when one of her birds died, she had the time to set up the camera and begin crying on clue before recording a video of her emergency call to a vet clinic or whatever it was. I mean, she used the opportunity to make a video.
Thanks!
RebornThroughHate thats truly sad. Shes def an attention seeking drama queen. Thats why i stopped watching her channel. I want to watch trainers that i can learn something constructive from, Bird Tricks and Marlene McCohen are the 2 best sources . Very professional, knowledgeable and fun . I love to watch free flight videos because theyre just beautiful doing what birds are born to do,fly fly fly 😀💗
@@cathyt144 Check out also April at "Parrot Playhouse", if you haven't yet. She's fantastic. She makes some great dishes for her birds.
Jamies face when Dave was talking about dating consultations 😂😂😂
The TL:DR is you agreed to help Caroline because it ultimately benefits her birds. I applaud this!
So glad you guys were able to connect with Caroline. She really does love her birds and her commitment to Marlene when Picasso first went missing was wonderful. Great to see your video with Marlene the other day, and it is wonderful of you two to help Caroline. You guys really are amazing!! Thank you for all of us that learn so much from you
thank you for helping caroline.
i have seen her vids. the losing of birds is alot because she dosent do the danger evavuating u do. drones, preditorbirds and strong winds is so much of the loses.
Im stunned she *DOES KNOWS SHES CLICKBAITING* thats horrible in my opinion.
+Faking some of the fly offs and drama for views, knowingly!? Thats just crying "wolf" untill it becomes real! Ohhh man.
P.s
No video of consoltation on her triggering Channel yet. Is there suppoused to be one?
P.s p.s
Im really proud of you for trying to get to her. For real. Even with cams in your face. Even when she deflects. Seriusly. Thank you guys. Super profecional. Her birds will benefit from it. so thank you
I agree, I hate clickbait so much it's so frustrating. I also just hate Caroline lol
Ya I can't watch her videos it is too stressful to me.
Val Prem the consultation videos are in the works - we did a few different sections working with her and Glory to get to the true root of the problem. I believe she said she made about four videos from our time together so I’ll be sure to let you guys know of the ones with the consult. Tonight she’s posting one about this meeting from her perspective.
@@ew2789 i dont like the word hate on anything but i get what your saying its hard not to use it sometimes
@@BirdTricks YOU ARE SO SO SO AWESOME!!!!! IM PROUD TO KNOW YOU J(and Dave of course)
I could tell from your body languge youve felt uncomfortble but you still repeat it again and again to be clear with her, to be nice but firm,and you just tried to get the best of the meet up, to get tp the roots as you said. It takes a REAL PRO to do that, and staying posetive altough you werent sure of the situation, and I have noticed it all, just so youd know!
Thank you, again!!!!!
Lots of love and good energies and hope too 😉😋😎
Your Israeli Fan and student
Val 💖💋
She seems more worried about her vid content than having a convo about helping her birds ..or is that just a UA-camr thing? Lol 🤨 idk...Caroline; while she has good intentions for her birds, always makes me uneasy with her vids.
Think that's just a UA-camrs thing. Do it long enough and you get sort of paranoid that everything's working correctly so you don't have to spend 6 hours editing. Especially when don't have a 2nd person to run the camera.
Carissa’s Nest Carolin’s ego is huge, every one of her videos starts with a clickbait thumbnail, and we basically see “Hopey” free flying in every video and Love and Glory barely make appearances in the videos. Her birds are beautiful but poor Hope seems to nearly get “lost” or “attacked” in every one of her videos. I feel like she is really out there and hope that this video helps her with her ego with selling merch than actually caring for her bird’s health and safety! NOT!!!
Jamie and Dave are very responsible with their birds and have taught their birds how to free fly the correct way. Carolin has trained Hope to fly but the poor bird flies away and hangs out in trees a and gets lost half the time. She uses a GPS on Hope in case he gets lost and seems to have to use it way too many times!!
Carissa’s Nest same here I totally agree
Part of the problem with living in a big city, especially in California, is that there are a lot of weirdos. So you might actually get your pet stolen or tampered with, unfortunately. And there’s also not a huge amount of open space. Just lots of public parks. And they’re filled with homeless people and also ravens and hawks. If you watch some of the free flight videos of bird trainers in San Francisco (where I live) they’re always losing their birds and having to chase them for miles and miles. It’s why I am reluctant to get a parrot while living here and want to move away to a different state before getting a parrot.
One comment I saw Carolin make on one of her videos, I believe it was when Love flew off, was something like “I’m the only youtuber who shows the whole truth of free flight” I’ve always wanted to watch her videos and occasionally I do but that comment, the fly offs and the way she talks about dog owners at the park sometimes have really stopped me from watching her channel regularly. If those things stop I will definitely subscribe to her again.
And I’m glad you guys are offering help and helping her. Based on that comment it seems like she didn’t think it was possible to not have her birds fly off randomly.
@@animallover5626 same here, for sure. Id like to know who is she behind, aside, in that mask of what she presenting.
You can see the pure unfiltered joy and delight on Dave’s face while he’s riding the Segway it’s perfect😂
Awesome content guys. I love the open transparent conversations you have and how real you guys are 👏🏻👏🏻
I am glad it all turned out okay. What a fun day and spur of the moment training. Another success.
I worked at Animal Kingdom as a photographer. The trainers had a macaw named Bailey that took off into the park. All day through the park I heard Baaaailey...C'mon Bailey! His main handler was in my area by the Tree of Life.
Now, I know it wasn't really funny but....Bailey would do a fly over and fly away laughing. That little stinker KNEW what he was doing! When left for the day she was still in the same spot and you could heard Bailey laughing and singing in the Tree of Life.
When I came back the next day SHE WAS STILL THERE!! Rumpled, tired and still calling for him. I actually got the shot when he finally quit torturing her and came back. I did a rapid fire burst and made a montage for her later on.
She actually cried when he finally landed safely back into arms. In a frenzy of hugging and kissing she told him what a naughty bird he was and that he was the worst bird ever lol.
I don't recall her name but I was in complete awe of her dedication and love for this bird. It must be so hard to be a trainer for a large park like Animal Kingdom. How can help but fall in love with all of the birds? Heck I was just a photographer and I fell in love with them. (Actually I kinda got in trouble over a cockatoo and getting too friendly with her lol)
Bird people are like horse people. The animals become your whole world from your waking thought to your final thought at the end of the day. God Bless you all for your love of these wonderful, wacky, intelligent, often frustrating animals.
Yes yes yes ive been begging both channels to meet up and help this lady change for the better. Thank you so much
I am happy you helped her. For all the reasons you gave. She really wanted help otherwise she wouldn't have gone to the last minute effort that she did. I IMMEDIATELY reached out trying to connect both of you when I saw the very real issues she was having. She needed real quality assistance with this bird or the bird was NOT going to have a very good future and that's why this community needs to be close. The intelligent creatures DESERVE our help. We chose to make them pets so we should accept the sometimes hard situations that coincide with owning a wild animal and forcing them to be domestic when it not in their nature. They are intelligent and self aware. They deserve to be treated as such.
I can’t tell you how much your honesty, and “here’s how it is” attitude was appreciated here! You’re awesome!
This is awesome! 🙌 So happy you guys did this. ❤
ANTSCANADA Forever!!
Yaassssss antscanada
Way cool to hear your thought process. You guys rock
You guys are the best!! Your care, respect and love for the birds you help is such a good example to everyone and shows how important it is to do things properly!!
Wondering why Caroline's video is set to private.... Very odd
I'll never get over how cute y'all are ❤️ they way you two look at each other is so sweet and full of love 😊
This was the collab everyone was waiting for. Thank you so much for working with Carolin and emphasizing to her about the safety aspects of free flying. Hopefully she can continue to progress in the future for her birds’ safety.
Im surprised Caroline didnt accused you of trying to steal her bird😏 . She likes to think everyone that touches or look at her birds wants to steal them.
Kas S. Not true! And it’s not very nice to say that
@KatieKM it is true this one family at the park was just looking at her bird and she said they were trying to steal it
That’s exactly what I said! She’s a horrible bird owner!!!!
I love Jamie and David, but yes I think Caroline does pretend to accuse people of stealing her bird for clickbait and I wouldn’t be surprised if she hired out of work actors in LA sometimes to play the “bird thief”
If you can't say anything nice, perhaps keep it to yourself. Words can hurt. Carolyn is a kind soul with a big heart. If you don't like her style of video, watch something else. No need to be negative and condescending. Life is to short to judge others. Judge yourself!
You have a beautiful soul my sister. I strongly feel people should understand why some people look for money, fame, attention, etc. They seek these things bc there is something inside of them that tells them they alone are not enough, they alone are not worthy. When others see this behavior and tear someone down, they become part of the problem and reenforce these beliefs of not being "good enough" in the person therefore contributing to the continuation of the undesired behaviors. The best way to help those who are hurting is with love, never criticism or bad mouthing. But you were a perfect example of kindness and compassion with personal boundaries and strength. I think you helped more than the birds this time. Thank you. Blessings 🖤
okay...i have to admitt... when i see your wonderful birds fly...my tears starts to fall...it is SO beautiful! That is the way they are meant to be...free, fly, feel the wind in their feathers... It is breathtaking
So I used to be on Caroline’s channel but I’m not anymore; her videos used to make very uncomfortable and she can be very judgemental at times and yes the fly offs gave me anxiety, I’m only half way through this video, even tho I’m not a fan of hers anymore I really do love you guys and I hope you can help her 🇦🇺❤️🇦🇺❤️🇦🇺❤️😊❤️
19:20 Wow what a good shot! Beautiful job Dave and Jamie!
I absolutely love you two, you are the most amazing bird trainers, and a super cute couple. Look forward to the next video.
The look on Jamieleigh’s face at about 19:20 seconds is pure rapture as she’s watching the bird fly. It’s a look that says “hell yeah, this is what a bird’s life is supposed to be!” Amazing video, as always ❤️
I'm loving all of your content so much lately!! The videos from group classes, the new podcast and now these collaborations are really phenomenal! I've been researching and planning to get my first large parrot for 10 years now and I've finally entered the actual phase of budgeting/saving up for the purchase and moving into a bigger apartment so I'll be adopting this bird later this year and your training and care related videos have helped me so much! My little budgies are indoor flight trained thanks to you two!
Great video. Im really looking forward to this series. Its says alot about Caroline that she is a known parrot person but wants to learn MORE to benefit her birds.
❤️ BirdTricks! I wish my husband was as passionate about animals as I am. The two of you are very lucky to have each other and to share a passion. Lots of hugs from Michigan to the BirdTrick family.
I loveeee the slow mo! Shows how majestic the birds are...they're all so beautiful!
I love how you held her accountable
I know nothing about birds but seeing Carolin in this video and looking at the video titles on her channel... alarm bells start ringing.
It’s good that you try to help her. As long as she doesn’t present it as some kind of endorsement.
Jamie and Dave, this is the most beautiful thing I ever saw, when Comet and the other girl(not Caroline's bird) were flying and runnig with your birds! Thank for helping Caroline Too! We are all learning from you!!!
Just watching your conversation in the truck about your interaction with this lady changed me a little bit give me a little bit of a different Outlook in life it's weird but just something that conversation it's just I look at the world different now thank you
Frustrated that she couldn't put her camera down and really listen to their advice.
Yes me too she frustrates me for alot of reasons
Yeah, somthing is just off
me too!
she does that because her English understanding is not that good, so she records it so that she can go over it again at home and really understand what they were teaching her. It does look disturbing though, but she's doing it to better help her birds with what she's being taught.
@@sa7el Like.... Did she say that
If you never take chances you aren't trying. Good for you!❤🐦
TheBioExplorer awe I love that. 💗
How beautiful birds in Flight. You are a sweetheart and wise one too.
Your hearts are genuine. Watching Comet fly was pure joy.
Hi, I am a big fan of yours. I am impressed that you save parrots and also shower them with love
I love your channel! I found you from Marlene page and watched your videos. I really love how you are determined to teach people and even when it's awkward make your stand. Also the driving commentary is hilarious! I was thinking how you said in the interview you do if for your birds. I REALLY didn't get it until I saw Comet out there!! He was smiling and so happy!! Awesome job!🐦💜
I understand that I’m late to the party but her content feels like she has birds to make content.
Yep.
I'm glad you could find it in your heart to help her. I'm glad she asked for help. Through experience of my own I'm jaded, had a family member ask for help, over and over and over again, while destroying themselves and the rest of us, some people won't change. Let's hope she's not one of those.
This video and your explanation says more about your character than any other. I only wish we were closer to really use your talents with our Sun. Especially after watching you with your three girls.
Watching this again this morning because my Quaker LOVES watching the birds free fly. As I watched you clean the back of Caroline's
shirt, I realized that we need to have a line of t-shirts made specially for people who live with parrots - with spots And splats on the back behind each shoulder, on the shoulder, and a couple on the chest! Then if it happens no one will know the difference until you get to a place where you can change. And if it doesn't happen (doesn't? Are you kidding?!), it just looks like a bird owner's joke! 😉🤭😆🤭
Just 2 minutes into the video and I am glad you are going to help Caroline. She needs a lot of help with her birds. Is he has lost her birds more than I can remember. I unsubscribed from her channel because I got tired of her self induced drama.
20:00 - That landing was spectacular and I absolutely love the use of slow motion. This bit really gives you a great look at how their tail feathers are used when approaching a landing point.
Nice to see Caroline reach out to you. Loved seeing you together and being honest with each other. This video was awesome
Love to hear you laughing together! Beautiful
Loved the fact that you asked her UP FRONT "are you losing them on purpuse" and is it for show..so much DRAMA..
Not trying to stir crap up. Not a hater..
I wouldnt have a problem with her with the fact she freeflies. Thats great...its how and why and when and with what aknolage,and what reason, and more so when she losses sight its immidetly "how to loose 15,000 in one second" not "Holyssssss!#%^ my baby bird!!!!!!my baby featherd kid!!!" And all the mean hatefull shaming random pepole no blur faced CLICKBAIT titles and DRAMA all the damn time, so much crying wolf and blaming others, but still when someome says something true but that she does not like, its the negativity SHE is runing on, not to mention how the birds are situated in the house.
We all see it because she films it, so it becomes EVERYONES BUSINESS, all of a sudden,now its her writing a book on how to be the best bird owner/trainer/freeflyer in the whole wrold while everyone else are just bashing and haters???? Come on!!
She needs to get help!!!!!!!!!! Asap.....from the pros, and ACTUALLY LISTEN
Im just sad for the birds, tbh they are so sweet and lovely, like any birds are. I feel bad for them being in the niddel middle point of this whole DORAAAAAAMA S@$%STORM. 🙄😶 im just wishing she WOULD have listened to you and Marlene. And alllllll the commenters under her videos. Some day it might not be a wolf cry , not caring and relaying on Gps alone, thinking she knows the best, but real danger they wouldnt be back from, its super sad.
Im *REALLY* hoping Caroline listen to you for her sake of her birds.
Hey relax, she just dose it for good content.
.. And she dose what she can do best for her birds. If you have
Want to say something that bothers you, just dont say it and keep it to yourself. I bet if you have a bird you wouldn't be able to do the things she trys to do for her birds and make them famous. She freeflys her birds to make them remember the wild. And btw CHILL.
@@yes6282 are you refering to me? If so, you just lost your bet dear. I do not have a hen is this cock fight so to say, but I do raise birds along with kids and dogs.
I happen to have a flock of only disabled birds of many breeds, including parrots (which with the hardest one yet, the only one that I dabbled the thought of her being too disabled to be able to fly but with the help of dear Jamie of Birdtricks, found out she is capable of flight and now is flying!!!but thats just a side note) they are all flight trained, recalled trained, and are free and are integrated in the local nature, doing "at liberty free flight" so they go in and out of my house as pleased in most of the day light time ,and at evening or activities we do, they are included like any "pet" birds are, they sleep and eat inside and get quality time, each and together day after day. Some do tricks but level isnt great, as I only take in disabled birds that are not baught but more or so forgotten discarded abandoned and rescued or relinqished to my care, they have got no one to believe in them and was put of in the "to sleep and put down" list. So..... some just cant. And its ok,now they are forever babies in my flock and they are doing well for years to come, almost all (aside that baby africqn that in in training now) are well trained, harness and flying diapers too. Because they join me and my child at everything we do outside of the safe zone or most safe zone at my yard parameters... they are not caged at all, they have spots they like in my home,they each chose and keeps. So no, im not like caroline, and im not trying to be, I even liked her contant at some point, im not in a chalange with anyone either, she does her thing, birdstricks does thiers and I do me, but I do *have birds and I do freefly almost all of them* . I care for hers and about what she does since birds are pure awesome, even the most hard ones just need the proper care to be flowering and I know she loves them or shed not get them,and so many.
I dont have any problem wirh her freeflying either, obviusly.... I did have some issues with stuff shes said or done in past, and I would love to see her grow and change.
@@yes6282 If she does it for "good content" then she's an asshat and so are you for thinking that's "good content". Ffs. Stfu.
That’s a big comment
I think it was a good thing to help Caroline. I had been concerned for her and her birds with the trouble she has had and the decisions she's made with them so far, so I had hoped someone would be able to help her out! Glory has some issues that are a challenge for Caroline to deal with, so I know Jamie and David can help both her and Glory, and that is all that matters. Helping Caroline matters, too!
I know there are people who do not like Caroline and how she handles the birds, but this is not about her, it is about her BIRDS. Those who tried to tell Jamie and David not to help her were doing a terrible disservice to those birds. Never assume that a bird owner is beyond help or hope due to your own personal distaste for their actions on their channel, people. You only hurt the birds that person owns.
LOVED when David got on the Segway and Comet flew to him on it! So much fun! Love to you Jamie & David! One of these days when I have more money (hopefully pretty soon) I would love to have you help me with my Timneh Grey who is 23 and never learned to fly properly when he was fledgling. He has had a rocky past with previous owners, so he has some hurdles to fly over, so to speak.
I look forward to helping you with your grey! 😘
This was BEAUTIFUL to watch, so wonderful to see someone who are just about what is best for the birds but also are so kind to the humans... Very touching❣️
You were very honest abt free flying with Caroline. Love Comet...cooling of feathers are gorgeous. The treats you use as a reward, are they something particular or is it just a food that each bird really likes but only used as a treat when training.
Laila Baloch the latter - and I use a mix of his 3 fav nuts or seeds.
@@BirdTricks thanks for the advice.
The joy of the birds and the joy of the humans together is pure bliss.
Im so glad you did this video. A little before I found your channel I had seen her video where her macaw Hope got chased off by some ravens and she had to spend hours searching for her and I thought it was a happy ending. Then I watched more and realized she is extremely irresponsible and despite it happening in almost every video I've seen, she doesn't change the way she flies her birds. I always wondered how you guys would react to her constant behaviour, she bases a lot of her flights on luck instead of training.
Left this video on while I went to go shower... came back and caught my conure rocking out to the music and trying to sing it! Omg
i just love how real y’all are, I got to say y’all are the most unproblematic UA-camrs I have ever sat eye on. I’m getting a cockatiel in a week and watching your videos just was a lifesaver and your seasonal diet is what I’m putting my cockatiel on and the training process of y’all’s I’m using with her I am also see if i can free flight train her, but not anytime soon probably 7-10 years so i can know how she is with that stuff!
I don’t have birds. Never kept birds. Never had the circumstances to be able to give a bird the high level of care I believe they deserve. I love them though, so so much.
When I see them free flying... I don’t know, my heart... It just explodes with emotion, for the bird. It’s absolutely beautiful. They swoop, they glide, they ride the wind, their muscles are pumping... Its just so stunningly natural. It gets to me every single time. Thank you so much, for all the amazing work that you do.
I just discovered you guys. You guys are amazing with the birds. I absolutely LOVE Morgans story. I have a Scarlett and a Buffins. ( Mo and Dorffa) Dorf ( the Buffins ) is a rescue. He is missing 2 toes on 1 of his foot from abuse. It took a very long time and patience to earn his trust. I thought I was doing good but after watching your videos I now have a lot better insight so I can do better for both birds. I thought the birds were just being birds but, now after watching your vids I see a lot of certin behavior patterns that I can work with them easily and improve with them. Thank you guys and keep the vids coming.
Y’all are such wonderful, beautiful, loving role models. I admire your accountability and empathy for all birds and people. You’re the greatest ever
Thanks so much you 2 I really enjoyed this video. I love the passion between you both and your birds and the help and advice you give . I totally get what you were saying at the beginning but Caroline is so sweet and although a little scatty (In the nicest of ways) she really does love and adore her parrots. once again Great video 👍👏👏🥰🦜♥️🦜♥️
OMG the ending is priceless with Bondi!!!!!
Jamie is so pretty.... I can not say who is prettier, J or B!
I love Carolin and you both are so real with truth and birds. Great info, love your bird training.
If I could like this video twice or more to show you guys how much I love and appriciate your work, I would! 😘🤘👌❤❤❤❤❤thank you for being *YOU* . Going to the most hard challenges facing head on,in transperent way, wanting good, doing good, and trying to save the world one bird owner at a time!
I always love when somebirdy sneaks in at the end. Hi, Bondi! Such a little sweetie. She’s just too cute. 💜
Good for you! You have a strong mind and a good will heart!
It takes all of us to teach each other things good and bad.
Your heart is in the right place and Caroline isn't a dummy, she knows what other people are saying about her and she handles it with style and grace.
Its unfortunate her video is private now. I did go to her channel and see a lot of irresponsibility. Bless you guys for trying to help. The birds can only be as good as their handlers.
I noticed that as well! Very weird to make it private....
I don't know why people were hating on either channel. Caroline does care for her birds better than most people I have met.... sometimes things happen when you have animals but she tries to give them the best quality of life and the fact she is trying to get proper training as well as the exotics care and behavior is always evolving. Any owner should be constantly researching and evolving
Comet chasing Dave on the Segway...papa this is soooo funnn chasing you on the Segway. Can we get one pleeeeez, can we, can we??? Luv your birds and how you interact with them. Thanks for sharing💕🌷💕
I remember recommending your channel to her a few months ago, like many others, I'm so happy y'all were able to meet up!
I really commend you in helping Carolin because this helps other's & education is what helps & saves birds. ❤
I believe Carolin loves her birds however she cares more about views than the safety of her parrots! You need to help her because I have watched her channel and she truly lacks the proper training and dedication for proper free flight! She probably just met you guys to get views on her channel. She is just filming your conversations the entire time! She needs to get it together😠.
Don’t get me wrong I think Carolin is a good person I just think she has a very concerning behavior between UA-cam and her birds.
Estie we did go out to lunch with cameras down but our initial meeting was definitely a lot of camera use. I’m hoping the consultation brings more light to everyone 💛
The only thing Caroline loves about her birds is the amount of attention they get her. Thats all. If everyone would ignore her the birds would be out of there faster than last years xmasscards.
The more viewers and subscribers Caroline gets, comes into UA-cam money, she probably uses the money to help her birds, she's a nice person, I don't really know what to think
@@popsicle1033 Easy: she only got the birds to get internet-fame. Once f.e. ferrets are the next hype she will get a few of those, she is that type of person. If you want to watch someone who is NOT in it for the money try WingsNpaws (I hope I got the name right) - he loves his bird (Smokey) and just wants to share what he knows without all the draamaaa and moneygrabbing.
I love your videos iv always love parrots since I was little and now I finally have my very own cockatiel I had her for about 3 weeks she likes to watch your videos with me :D watching you helped me train her.
Just seeing comet above you like that is so beautiful it makes my heart swell
Just so much respect for your responsible message re keeping birds.Great education and really wonderful service 👏🏼Smiles from Scotland 🌺
Thank you
Hi Jamieleigh! One of your videos popped up in my suggested videos, and I clicked in part because I’m a parrot lover and in part because I totally recognized you from somewhere. Just realized that I rooted for you in LiveJournal’s Next Top Model many many years back LOL! :) Anyway, I have been binge watching your videos and have been inspired to try new things with my birds (starting with target training!). Thanks so much for putting this all out there and for being so real about the process.
That is hilarious!!! What are the odds!
Because you the best and love birds ❤️💙😍🥰
I love that dave listen to you very well and makes eye contact with you all the time it’s just sooo cuuttee ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I will always ALWAYS welcome advice. Not just now, as a new-ish bird owner, but for my next bird and for free flying my flock (flock of ONE right now) and when I finally buy a house and can have outdoor aviaries and.. well, anything. Even things I think I know, I'm sure there's better ways to do things that just won't occur to me. Whenever I think Cyrano and I are ready, I will definitely be reaching out for the first steps of learning to free fly him. He's starting to do small recalls from his cage to my hand when he sees the treat in the catching hand. At first he would fly off if I moved at all, now I can turn my wrist so he lands on my finger. Still not stepping up, though, but that's for the clicker and not a lure. We're making serious progress weekly! And it's all because of you guys and your understanding of birds and that it's the human that needs the training, really, lol. Can't wait to eventually get to free flying!
Seeing them soar, makes me happy cry.
