Love Bumi chattering in the car! ❤ So so funny.

[@laineyg6]

This is so incredibly exciting! When he flew to the post and back, I couldn't figure out what was going on I kept reminding myself that she took him out of the cage without a harness. And then when he flew off and flew higher, I started panicking. And then watch the video, my smile got bigger. This is just an incredibly awesome thing to see. Way to go, Bumi and Lauren!

[@AdventuresofRoku]

haha the second flight today was so much more controlled, you can see he was just that much more confident especially flying down to play in the mud haha

[@pinkblossom123]

Aaah i'm so happy! Now Bumi can finally fly like he should. I know he will be very happy with it too now he can excersise properly. It almost feels extra special as i've been following the free-flight club for a while now, getting to watch all the good and the bad and growing attached to the birds haha. Props to you guys! For the care and effort you put into your birds. Definetly deserving of a medal in my opinion. 👍

[@kittyvaughn76]

Oh, my, such a beautiful place! Love the glimpse of the horses.

[@shinbakunawa1323]

CONGRATS TO BUMI AND LOZZIE!!! So amazing to see Bumi finally Free Flying! ✴💛✴💛

[@cephalopodenergy2790]

Hooray for Bumi!

[@shadowflower22]

Go Bum Bum!! He is such a beauty, it's been a long time since I have seen a black cockatoo in the wild down in Sydney. They really are beautiful creatures

[@elcapitan6126]

can usually see them feeding on pines in centennial park in the spring. or in the mid blue mountains

[@DrewWasMe]

great description of the process you went through and why you did the things you did. Just lovely.

[@elizabethpadilla8933]

Bumi is so beautiful and congrats to his free flight.

Beautiful Cockatoo

[@shellsand7129]

Congrats to you all for graduating BumBum to free flight!! I’ve been watching your videos wondering when Bumi would shed the harness. He’s my new favorite one to watch now...sorry Kevin, I still love you, buddy😋💖💖

[@cher280z]

That is soo cute the way the bird talks. What ya doing! 😃

[@sky-Del]

Finally getting to hear him 😍 love you bumi 😘

[@NihilAzari]

[@AdventuresofRoku]

[@worshipcatalyst1]

[@lisatulip7873]

YAY! Go Bumi!

[@charlyjean1952]

OMG YAAAAAY BUMI he did so well !!!!

[@oldskoolmusicnostalgia]

Ahahah you have him living with a galah too 😇 brilliant.

[@Love-rex]

Youguyz are amazing

[@TheGrmany69]

You should use a falconry tracker, parrots feathers are strong enough to bear them.

[@mitebcool]

There has been a flock of about 100 of these birds at Werribee Park in recent weeks, they have been chomping on the pine cone trees in the mansion gardens and making a big mess 😄

[@sabrinaelisa94]

Bumi in my language means Earth ❤️

[@jmstudios457]

AYYY BUMI!!!

[@Jetaru]

YAY FINALLY BUMI

[@billy-uo9mb]

teach meeee this is my favorite bird 😍

[@worshipcatalyst1]

was that bumi and kevin with all the conversation in the car??

[@AdventuresofRoku]

it was all Bumi, Kevin piped up in only 1-2 bits, but it really sounds like Bumi is trying to talk :)

Lindo !!! like 👍👍👍

[@parthachakraborty8017]

Awesome

[@Aethuviel]

It's so rare to see yellow-tails as pets (even rare in aviary/breeding situations) - can I ask you what they are like? Noise, diet, temperament - perhaps compared to the white cockatoos? I really love these on the surface, but I don't know anything about what they're like as pets, and they obviously cost a minor fortune (some €5k+ in Europe).

[@andrewp4075]

@Wattle and Frida, of course they are available outside Australia. The prices are very high and they are not frequently available. Find the breeders and meet their birds in person first before deciding to buy.

[@andrewp4075]

@Wattle you misrepresent the owners of these birds overseas. They are not kept illegally in these countries and they were either exported from Australia legally before legislation to ban it or subsequently bred outside Australia legally from pre-existing pairs.

[@michaelh7506]

You have the most beautiful birds are you in Australia? I'm in the US the black cockatoo is amazing. I'm enjoying your videos. Thanks for sharing with every here.

[@AdventuresofRoku]

Yep based in Sunny Queensland, Australia :D

[@bleepblophumanmusic5073]

I think we found the replacement voice for elmo

[@angusscott2317]

Is that his fist time with out his harness

[@AdventuresofRoku]

its explained in detail in the video description :)

[@wizardlysheep8379]

Are some of his feathers Are removed?

[@AdventuresofRoku]

no most definitely not, we are highly against that and don't see why that would even be done when our whole intention is to take them out haha

[@wizardlysheep8379]

Oh,because the way he is flying is a bit weird😅.and thx for hslping that birdy and giving him his freedom

[@angusscott2317]

Thanks

[@GenoGirlUndertalefan1]

aww

[@angusscott2317]

How do you get your birds to be so cudley

[@AdventuresofRoku]

you have to earn their trust and love :) knowing how to read their body language and only working in their comfort level is key. :)

[@nora5469]

thought bumi was harnessed trained

[@AdventuresofRoku]

its explained in detail in the description.

[@jaskiaz]

Arent you afraid of predators? Raptors? I live in Arizona in the US and i have to keep all my birds(chickens, ducks, geese) In a very secure place. But we have a couple big hawks that watch and some smaller Raptors. Plus owls.

[@AdventuresofRoku]

we live in australia so theres for more raptors here, there was probably like 5 in this video along flying around. it takes very specific factors to be at play for parrots to be vulnerable and at risk of predation and even more specific factors for a raptor to be a threat. Much like a shark, sharks are in the water with people over 80% of the time that doesn't mean your going to get attacked. if you go to the bottom of www.adventuresofroku.com/Educational.php its explained in more detail what these factors are :)

[@jaskiaz]

Adventures of Roku I did not know that. But i knew you have many more birds of prey there than here. We have just the usual pair that hang around. I think of my silly and totally unaware blue fronted Amazon flying around, she would be fair game i would think. But thanks for the info, and i thoroughly enjoyed watching your beautiful birds😊

[@AdventuresofRoku]

haha yeah what is safe for our birds is extremely high risk for pet indoor birds. predators pick up on the key signs and then dynamics change and danger is real. I explain it more in the link. so glad you like the vids! :)

[@randomdude4669]

What, i thought he was just gonna be a harness boy

[@AdventuresofRoku]

its explained in the video description :)

[@lorenzorosini7465]

👍

[@jiveturkey9993]

Its gotta be nerve wracking when the bastards ignore you and fly a liitle too long and a little too far and kinda just fly around and give you the middle as your trying to get them to come back. Im assuming they do that once in a while.

[@AdventuresofRoku]

mainly only for owners who dont have the correct training or knowledge. If you treat them look a boomerang and try enforce control when free flight is about partnership then yes those owners are rightfully in for a stressful time. I only need to call mine back when its home time like many other trainers, I personally dont want them hanging off me when we are out. its good to have a break for them and me lol

[@jiveturkey9993]

Adventures of Roku i kinda figured since they're so smart they would have a disobedient streak in them. Im glad im wrong.

[@AdventuresofRoku]

ohhh your 100% correct dont worry, thats what im talking about. Owners without the correct knowledge or training do not take into account the intelligence of a parrot and try to assume a master and subject relationship with control, then try get them to do unnatural acts of flying loops and back to them constantly. You have instinctual drift, a point where the parrot eventually thinks.... why am I even doing this? theres no restriction ill go do what I want for now as the need to come back is lesser then the want to play and explore. I see this occurring on the regular and I just dont have the energy to say anything anymore, its why I provide all the info on the website, if people lack the initiative to read it then thats on them. Free flight is and should always be a mutual partnership, the moment someone tries to assume control over a free flighted bird outdoors is the moment the relationship starts to get damaged.
