Hi Gideon's mom here 😊 Not everyone understands why I want to let Gideon experience free flight, and that's ok. I do want to clarify that the reason we are going to Utah is that we are working with very experience free flight trainers who have safely done this for many years. We will be meeting with them and other professionally trained free flyers in Utah. We will be flying together in pre-scouted, safe places for each bird's skill level. I don't want to fly him her in Texas because the landscape is not ideal where we are and flying alone is not as safe. Every decision we are making is for the safety of Gideon. If for any reason it didn't feel safe, we wouldn't do it 💚💚
that's cool. What went through my mind was would Gideon get attacked by wild birds? I know that tame birds can suffer from this :)
I rescued a parrot who was my best friend for 15 years until I lost him last winter to illness or old age. I also altered my life so my boy could live the most natural life possible. He flew wherever he wanted and I hid various foods so he could experience foraging. It was a rewarding experience and though it broke my heart to lose him, I know I made his last years his best years. I agree with you totally. AND you get to see the beauty of Utah. What could be better! You go girl. You go GIDEON!!!!
he's a beautiful bird
Wonderful, Gideon has the best chance of a great life with you, enjoy Utah.
I love that you're so aware of what *he* needs. Too many pet owners only concentrate on what they need from the pet. You're a wonderful example.
She hit the nail on the head when she said, with birds, you have to change your lifestyle to suit, not the other way around. They are a huge commitment. Thank you for rescuing them.
People sometimes can't think out of the box, to efficiently think of ways to keep the bird happy, healthy, and mentally stimulated, and make being a bird owner as effortless as possible. You have to learn to make some sacrifices, and understand how to create routines to make "your" life as enjoyable and simple as possible.
Case in point, my green cheeked conure kept coming in the kitchen area when we prepared food. The kitchen isn't visible to the bird from most of the living area. The conure kept getting in the way, and made us nervous that it might hurt itself. The bird just wants to be with the flock, and maybe get a small treat.
Remedy: I bought a small cage that sits on top of the fridge, and I put the bird in it when she wants to be with us, sometimes I give her a small vegetable or fruit treat to reward her for being good. Problem solved, she's stays safe, we feel better, and the bird doesn't accidentally leave us any biohazardous material.
Yes. Its very different when it comes to birds. Unlike with dogs and cats. With birds your whole house is her/his birdcage😂 i can relate to this due to my budgie❤️
I have a 24yo blue and gold macaw. They are like little humans with a spectacular array of VERY FAMILIAR emotions. Anger, fear, jealousy, hurt feelings, competition. You name it, they’ve got it. When you bring a non human being into your home they become family members and it is a commitment for life. Through sickness and in health etc. You are the only flock they have. A bonded relationship with a bird is one of the most remarkable adventures a human can experience. My Zazu loves to put one of her large wings around my shoulders when we are cuddling. How many people can say they get hugged by a macaw on a regular basis?
@@shovington67 Well, I should tell you the bird won't do well being let to stay on top of the fridge. This is because there is pretty constant air flow past that area and it will make your bird sick if you do it often. Just a word to the wise.
@@fewferfev , I dont keep her in the kitchen ? Its an alternate cage that keeps her out of trouble for 15 mins when we chop up vegetables and prepare the dinner meal. I've raised birds since the 1980s, and all my birds have outlived their life expectancy, so I dont see a problem. She just wants to be with the flock.
Imagine how it feels to have a little bird just to fully trust and love you with it's whole heart
I have a trusting hand raised parrot, treats me as her partner. Is very bonded to me. We spend 8hrs a day together and she lives wild in the house free flying. It is a joy to have an adorable fluffy feathered friend to share your life with ❤🐦
I have a pigeon that's attached herself to me. She's used to flying around the house and perches on the bathroom door at night. BUT she poops anywhere she feels like. Usually on me. She was 5 years old when we met on the back patio. She got separated from her coup, probably because she was chased by a hawk and she wouldn't leave so we started feeding her and I had conversations with her in pigeon coos. Brought her into the house when the temperature dropped and she's been with me for 9 years now.
Birdies are so intelligent and sweet 💚❤️💚
I know, my African grey also is a free flyer in the home.
Imagine how it feels to have her house 🏘️🏠🏠
The enclosed batting cage is a good idea to be able to let your bird free fly outside. Thank you for rescuing birds 🙏🐦
My gramma keeps her budgies inside and lets them free fly inside her house
@@kokuhakuqiun4215 my budgie freeflies with safety inside the house, he is out always as we wake, then is free until night
It is a monstrosity but worth it 😊
I’ve been seeing those peep out from behind ppls yards and always wonder what they were cuz I was thinking they would be great for my birds. But now I know. Awesome.
It's so beautiful when you can see a parrot or any other animal in their eyes, and truly understand their emotions. That's what makes us human.
Yes !! There are MANY predators. Cats, dogs, hawks will take him out in a second. Make sure you protect him !!
*APPLAUSE* 👏👏👏👏 Usually people make the animal get used to their lifestyle but she's doing it right.... She's accommodating his lifestyle and even driving to a safe place for him to fly. You're awesome people and he is a very lucky birb.... LoL 😁
I agree.
IT'S BIRD
APPLAUSE, I agree with you wholeheartedly. She's doing everything right to make sure Gideon has the perfect life. It's so incredible to see them together ❤️
I rescued 2 eclectus parots. The males are green and the females are red with purple.
I have a pair. They are so smart and funny.
I have mad respect for this woman. Parots are amazing.
eclectuses are so cute!
I had a wild caught female Vosmeari Eclectus . She was not super friendly, but I could carry her around. She was very quiet as parrots go.
@@carolyncoe7618 Sounds cool!
The female Vosmaeri eclectus is red and purple, but the female Solomon Island eclectus is red and blue.
I have a boy and girl as well. We rescued the girl from a pet store and have spent the last few years slowly getting her to trust hands. She was definitely abused before we found her and it's been a very long, hard and painful journey. it's worth it though.
Oh my gosh! He is absolutely gorgeous. When he flys, his wings open wide to all these amazing bright, beautiful colors. I am so glad his wings wasn't clipped. What a beautiful, strong parrot God have created. Very intelligent and trusting. This video made my day.
It's nothing to do with gods.
@@321scully There's no creation without a creator. Whatever device you used to reply has its own manufacturer, it couldn't exist from itself.
Nature does not need any help from mythical beings to do what it does.
@@321scully How was it possible for the planet to exist on its own? By the work of nature as well?
@@HelloSirHowCanIScamYouToday Of course!! Nature and the Universe existed long before we did. Planet Earth was able to support the life we know and we are part of that life. Mankind invented useless gods.
Birds live LONG lives, sometimes 80 years, and they need someone just like this woman to care for them for that whole time, and make solid plans for when they’ll outlive their caretakers.
This is what I call giving a pet the freest, most natural experience to a captive life as possible. What a Beautiful Gift. How many birds would give anything to have this.
Spot on video. Years ago I purchased my Amazon parrot, not being sure what to expect from a larger bird. Twenty-five years later were still together, we travel together all over the midwest, cannot imagine life without my little buddy. As for free flight, worried about our native hawks, especially the Coopers hawk grabbing him.
This is inspirational to me. My gal and I, along with her parents found/rescued/adopted an Albino Indian Ringneck about 18 months ago who was extremely traumatized by her experience before finding us. She was found in our garden space, bloody, cold and obviously scared out of her wits. A vet visit, flyers around the area and months of waiting for an owner to come forward later and we were eventually told by Animal Control and our Avian vet that we could/should keep her. She is still slowly being trained at her level of comfort and at her pace. She's an absolutely amazing bird and I feel a real miracle in our lives considering how easily she could have died if we hadn't rescued her. We named Jasmine because of her all white body and where we found her, hiding in a jasmine bush.
Some people have all the luck....I wish!
@@commonsense246 I certainly appreciate your reply, but sadly Jasmine passed away this past June. She is deeply missed, but was absolutely a miracle in our lives and we gave her the best we could for time we had her. We won't cry because it has ended. We rejoice that it happened at all.
Gideon is such an amazing animal!! You are so lucky to have found him and have him in your life and he is equally as lucky to have a Mom as wonderful as you!It’s so remarkable how love can bind all animals together! The common threads between all animals are always there-and after all we are all animals!! 💝
Thank you. He is very special 💚
@susan zoppi I completely agree with your comments. I could not have said it any better 💗
People who understand and communicate with animals on this level are truly admirable. Thank you for your work and sharing this vid.
This is why birds belong in the wild. Thank you for your efforts 💜
Birds are amazing. I rescue & release often. Can’t say enough how much I miss each one. Everyone has their own personality
It’s amazing you let them fly free bc that’s how a bird wings should be! What beautiful colours under the wings.
The lady has a beautiful home 🏡 ❤ and the bird is absolutely adorable and precious. Very well taken care of. 🥰😍😘🤗
Bless her 🙏❤️
“We have to change our lives to suit them, not the other way ‘round”
This video is amazing on so many levels. I wish Jennifer would have said how old Gideon is. He watches whatever she does & takes a real interest in it. The red feathers under his wings, visible when he flies, are so gorgeous. The dogs get all excited when he lands.
It's always so wonderful to see people with the means to rescue animals like Gideon. They've got a big house so he is able to fly and be somewhat free, and then they're able to purchase & set up that batting cage for him, plus take the trip somewhere far away...just so that one bird, one little bird that would never have gotten the chance if it was me or someone else who had adopted him, to fly outdoors the way God made him to do. I think of all the thousands, perhaps millions, of caged birds who must long to spread their wings and fly but who will live their entire lives without ever being given the gift of doing something that is rightfully theirs to do. Thank you, Jennifer.
Hi! Gideon just turned 2 last month 😊
@@greenbirdbrigade Happy late birthday, Gideon! What's his origin? Rescued from a bad spot, or adopted from a good place? He's adorable!
I couldn’t, possibly, have worded this any better. This is exactly what I feel and intended to say. It honestly makes me sad when I think of caged birds… they were never intended to be limited like that. It reminds me of an Orca whale in a “pool” or dolphin in a cordoned-off area, just for people to come pay/watch them. It’s not natural and it must drive them insane. This woman has done wonders for Gideon and the other rescues she’s had. 👏🙏❤️ What a gift that she’s fortunate enough to provide all those things in order for him to thrive.💖🚺🦜
Yes. I agree. We, ourselves feel it and I think that is why we pity the unnatural caging of animals that should fly free and even migrate long distances. Before the fall of man humans had abilities far and above what we are limited by now. I think we know it. I think we feel it in our spirits and one day we will all be free. Meanwhile, bless the rescuers and educators who can do something for all the creatures we have limited. The curse will soon be lifted and that is the hope we live for. "Come soon, Lord Jesus", is always my prayer for all of us.
@@SeattleRaindrop206 Yes. I've seen bears go insane in zoos. I feel so ashamed of us that we allow zoos to enslave all these creatures. There is a vet in my city who owns a parrot he keeps in the veterinary clinic. This is beyond cruel. It has plucked itself so that you cannot even tell what kind of parrot it is. Insanity in animals is manmade. Cruelty often exists as ignorance.
Thank goodness for people like this.
Beautiful parrot and so amazing human mama
Theres just nothing like the bond you have with a bird youve raised from a baby..my quaker Echo came to me at only 13 days old. Eyes opened on day 14 and she had a few pin feathers. Shes now 2 yrs old and just awesome..
What a wonderful story. You my dear are a very special lady. You and Gideon are blessed to have each other. Thank you so much for being such an angel.
What a stunningly beautiful emerald green bird, with the scarlet markings beneath his wings!
The size of the house is just perfect!!!❣️😌
I have a little cute parolette and I've been training him, letting him fly and roaming around the house, get all the nutritions he can gets, plus has his time-out etc. but wow, this lady is my role model haha, I hope that I can build an outside nest for my bird to fly outside! 🥰💖
What a sweet green birdie. I can see why you fell in love with him. The dog seems to be having fun too 😂
The parrot is nice! I like the noise he has tho. Can’t believe he can fly.
I truly respect this woman for how she feels about having a bird as a pet. Glad you made this video. Bravo
Hugs to ALL animal helpers! ♥️ What I find very charming about this family is that you can see from their amazing home that they do very well in life ... AND STILL find it in them to help animals. It is not beyond their attention or their time schedule. A lot of the wealthier people could help but won't because they are too busy socializing and earning and spending money. The tongue trick is lovely ... 😂🤗♥️👍
I think the male Eclectus is one of,if not the most beautiful parrot of all.
That is simply great you can give that creature all that care he's getting, going above and beyond what most people either can't or won't do. God Bless You!
Well she is rich, so yeah.
Thank you for not clipping Gideon's wings cause doing so is like paralyzing someone from the waste down.
His colors stand out when he soars. This is a very unique creature to befriend.
The other dog is beautiful and gorgeous!🥰🐕🦺🥰
Absolutely beautiful bird! Omg when he spreads his wings it’s amazing !!
Thank this Beautiful Woman for all she does !!" God Bless her !! 🙏 🥰
He is absolutely beautiful, thanks Jen for taking care of these amazing animals.
Gideon is absolutely beautiful! You can tell she takes great care in his emotional and dietary needs. Most people don’t realize that birds in captivity can live up to 80 years and having them in your house is a lot of work. But, she is doing a fantastic job!
That sounds wonderful!! Be safe and you are a fantastic mom!!! God bless you all! Joannie
So heartwarming and what a beautiful colored bird the red and the green and then you let it fly and you take time to give a freedom wow outside even and you avoid predators you’re an amazing woman I really respect what you’ve done your life how sweet how loving 🥰
I've never had a parrot, but had parakeets for years. It's amazing how intelligent they are and what they can learn and how keen they are to please.
She mentioned not wanting to free fly Gideon in TX because of the predators so she chose Utah. I'm from Utah and we have predators here. This bird is so sweet I hope he stays safe 🦜♥️🦅🦉
What a beautiful bird.
And a gorgeous home too!!!
I love the Eclectus! They are beautiful parrots with fun personalities.
You are doing such an amazing job with Gideon. What a very blessed bird.
The dog is beautiful and gorgeous!🥰🐕🦺🥰
Beautiful bird...such pretty colors! These birds are so lucky to have this lady be their mommy. She's an Angel.
The slow-mo of Gideon in flight is beautiful. Also, I never knew that birds yawned. That was so cute!
Beautiful bird !!! Lovely green color! Well trained.
He's just baby....what a beautiful start to his life
What a beautiful gorgeous parrot!🥰🦜🥰
What an amazing Mom🙏🏼
There is nothing like birdie love 💙
I'm glad she commented and clarified the going to Utah part, because it made no sense without the explanation, simply because there are predators in Utah as well lol.... But now I understand there is actually more to it....... I'd love to see a follow up video of her doing the free flight with Gideon, just to show us all what something like that looks like etc..... I'm assuming it has to do with recalling him, and the extensive training needed for it. Because unlike a dog, a bird can go places, much farther higher etc. So the need for recall would be tremendous...... And if I were still a large parrot owner/person (I was back in my 20s), I would bulld something like a catio, a really large outdoor enclosed by netting space for them to fly as much as they want.. But being kept safe..... The large parrot birds are not something to joke around with in terms of lifestyle care etc. They require you to know what you are doing and to make arrangements for them when you pass, because they most likely will outlive you as most have a really long, some 100 years, lifespan...and more. Like she said you tailor your life around them, not the other way around.... But they are beautiful and incredibly intelligent and INCREDIBLY loud lol....and ps our macaws didnt have their wings clipped either because I hated the idea of doing that to them.....
💚🦜💚What is pretty and beautiful bird!
Thank you Jennifer for opening your heart and home to these beautiful birds. The way that he looks at you with so much love, respect and interest melted me. Gideon is beautiful and so smart. Please post when he gets to Utah and does his free flight.
What a beautiful polly! It is truly a blessing to win a bird's trust and heart. I know. My little friend for 14 years was a blue and white budgie I called "Skye". He lived so long because I loved and babied him. I think he considered me his mum. I think the whole purpose and joy of living is learning to give and receive unconditional love.
He’s so beautiful. And so relaxed 😌 Sticking his tongue out😊 The red under his wings! Oh my goodness! Who would see that color if he didn’t fly. You’re awesome. Thank you.
What a beautiful bird. I love animals. You have given your animals a great life and it is heartwarming to see that. I wish you and your family all the best. 🥰
You both are so beautiful! God bless you for taking Gideon to Utah for free flight.
Thank you for being one of the most amazing ppl I know. The love of your animals is like no other!
Gideon is beautiful and the lady is giving him the best life
He’s a beautiful bird . My girl was a rescue best thing I ever did. I’ve had her for around 10 years she’s 29 . Can’t imagine not having her.
I’m so happy to read about all of the safety precautions you’re taking! I raised several species of birds. All of them were hand raised and most would sit on my shoulder when we went outside. But two out of the dozens I’ve raised caught sight and sound of other birds suddenly flying by and startled, they took off to join them. And they weren’t the same species either. I’ve seen little blue and white budgies with flocks they don’t belong with. Sometimes the flock will tolerate it. Sometimes they’ll attack it. Especially if its feathers are different colors to the flock. Not predicting that will happen but the possibility’s always there. Even if he’s bonded, even if you think he believes that you are his mommy. Just be forewarned. Sometimes they’ll fly back. So if that does happen, be prepared to wait a day or longer in the hope that it will. Good luck. I know your little cutie means the world to you.
Very good rescuer. Understands that birds need to be outside. Thank you for spending so much time with your rescues!
Birds. .every animal understands what you are saying.
Time and patience they love you wholeheartedly.
Gideon is beautiful!
MANY PEOPLE HAVE BIRDS NOW AND ARE DOING A GREAT JOB. BLESSINGS
I lived in Utah for four years. One thing he can't be ready for is any other aggressive raptor (owl, hawk, eagle, etc.), who will likely view Gideon as a nice snack. I've lived all over this country; every place has it's aerial predators, especially Utah. So free flying is not safe.
She's risking his life in a 36 hour car trip to risk his life on a free flight in an area she doesn't live, all so she can feel better about herself when the bird is perfectly happy and safe flying around her gigantic house and her gigantic fenced in yard. I'm sure there won't be a cute little video about him dying in a car accident or getting lost or eaten. She's ridiculous.
Maybe the parrot is Mormon, therefore Utah predators will not harm him in anyway.
@@luna-p Your being Ridiculous.
@@luna-p Birds are meant to fly free. I wish I could fly my cockatiel like that, but he's not a great flier. In a home, a bird has to navigate things like walls and windows, which are definitely hazards for them. In free flight, a bird can enjoy flying without those risks. When you free fly, you are constantly watching for predators on the horizon. If you see one, you recall your bird immediately. You have to supervise, just like a parent would when taking their child to the playground. Plus, free flight is often done in a group, with all the humans watching the skies. Gideon is incredibly well trained by someone who clearly knows what she's doing. This lady loves her bird intensely, and her bird loves her. She obviously knows the risks and has taken steps to mitigate them. They're going to be just fine!
I'm guessing she's probably going with "Bird Tricks" they do this stuff professionally, taking whole groups out into the desert, with clear views for miles & miles in all directions, so they can be sure there's no predators in the area when they free fly any of the birds
& I very much doubt owls are going to be of concern during the day, without a tree in sight lol
What a beautiful bird! I really hope he gets to have his free flight experience! I can just imagine how that will impact his experience, soaring majestically as his owners watch him in his element. I sure hope we get to see that video and be able to share in both the joy of Gideon's experience and of course that of his owners. Best of luck Gideon, we're all routing for you!
Burung yang pintar,lucu dan menggemaskan. Beruntung dia bertemu dengan anda dan keluarga,dan karena kasih sayang anda dia merasa bahwa anda adalah ibunya. Salam animallover Indonesia 🤝🇲🇨
Very true! I have an African Senegal for nearly 24 years and have her since the age of 3 months. Yes, I’ve had other parrots, losing one in a divorce and the other was a rescue that flew away. Yes, it’s rare one keeps a parrot for their entire life. Your Eclectus is stunning. Thank you.
Love your pragmatic and accommodating attitude, we are caretakers of our animal friends, not owners! Fly free, Gideon! ❤️
Absolutely beautiful relationship built on trust and proper care
I am so glad she touches on changing our homes to suit our pets and not the other way around. Too many people get a pet in order to enrich their own lives, instead of the animal's life. Birds are an especially huge and rewarding commitment, but far too many birds pay the price for over-excited and underprepared people.
Lucky you to have a young smart bird with personality. We just lost our Mexican redhead last week. Almost 42 years old. He traveled with us and had a wonderful life. I would have loved to see him experience free flight. We always called him our best son. Enjoy your trip to Utah
I have always been around parrots. I love them. When I am in Australia, I always enjoy seeing the Cockatoos.
What a beautiful bird❣️ She is so lucky to have the chance to take care of this creature and love it like she does!!! How awesome is that? Good for them ❣️❣️🤓
This was a wonderful Video of that Parrot and his Mom and doggie brother.
The lady took the time to teach him many things. Good that his little wings were not clipped.
Great Story, Great Animals and Wonderful Patient Lady !
I love ❤️ that you are so dedicated to look after him. Beautiful lady with a great heart towards animals. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
BEAUTIFUL BIRD AND YOU ARE TRULY A GOOD PERSON.
thats how it should be done in my opinion
letting the bird live as a bird, letting him fly free, not just kept in a cage
and the love and passion you got for gideon is just amazing
😍
So special. Birds are extraordinary beings.
He is absolutely beautiful and so blessed to have you as his mama.
What a tremendous opportunity to go to Utah and fly like a free bird. It will be so exciting for her to spread her wings for the very first time.
He is so sweet and the conure is too.
Wholesome.
God bless you, and Gideon, and your family! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ive never seen a bird that would stick its tongue out thats quite adorable.
That's honestly an intriguing and neat goal I think. I'm also happy that predators was considered for this experience he may not otherwise get as I remember back in Cali sometimes being able to see sooooo many hawks in one tree, see them flying often enough, and even hearing owls at night at times so my old home area would be an immediate no-go for something like this.
Eclectic parrot 🦜
Such beautiful birds!
Hopefully he will never fly right into the huge glass window in your home..🙏🙂
I will truly miss watching her play. Wishing her success with her new endeavors. Sending love from your fan.
Beautiful little guy :) Well done on the training!
What a great concept! You really have decided to have a great bird in your life and I respect that. I hope that you can just keep him in your life and have a gorgeous bird that you can love and respect. I have a lot of respect for you and I hope that you can just be happy with the life you have been given. Good luck to you and be blessed. ❤
Gorgeous House 🤍 And Bird 💚
Gideon has it made , he's got family and lots of love ! Super bird !! Thanks for caring and sharing !
He beautiful ❤️ he loves to be loved.
What a beautiful parrot 🦜
