This evening I had both Monty and Mitzi on their stands next to each other and I was sitting on the sofa facing them. The TV was on. They were just sitting there until something suddenly startled both of them and they both took off straight towards me. Monty can't fly so he ended up on the floor but I had a moment of panic because Mitzi had disappeared! I found her behind the TV just standing there waiting to be rescued!

When Chy falls behind a sofa, she just stands there waiting for Daddy to pick her up too. It must be the shock of landing in a strange place in the house.
Chy also had a scare. Daddy had to go out at 3:30 a.m. to drive friends to the airport. He tried to be quiet but Chy's ears must be really good. The "noise" scared her and she flapped around the cage losing a blood feather. She had been doing so well managing to keep all her feathers. Hopefully this won't set her back.

As soon as I "rescued" her she flew off again and had to be "rescued" again!
I hope Chy is okay. Monty never keeps his flight feathers, he grows them but they always fall out.

Until late July, Chy was like Monty. She would grow flight feathers then flap or crash and they would fall out. When she had her major fright and lost lots of feathers at once in July, she was able to grow all the feathers in at once and kept them. After eleven years, she was able to fly for the first time. It always surprised me when she sailed over my head because she didn’t do it often. Since she lost the blood feather, she hasn’t tried to fly. I hope she gets a new feather soon.
