I just realized a stunning difference in you two’s editing and videoing technique/styles lol. Normally I come to birdtricks to have it on in the background, ii just let it auto play and binge watch. But most of it is Jamie’s content, more telling than showing (which is easier to listen to) and she is amazing at that. She can articulate what she means in a way that’s easy to understand. And then seeing some of your videos, it’s almost all showing instead of telling- and that’s essential to learning. You guys are like total opposites but also so much alike? Together y’all work perfectly, because each one of you have your own unique strengths. And Capri is the spunky little mix of you both lol.

YES! I mentioned this comment in my comment because you are so right - two different styles, neither of which are better than the other. Both are needed which is why they, as trainers, do so great together because they notice and can articulate different things. I'm, for one, just happy that they keep putting out such amazing content, and hope that some of the particularly rude comments don't put them off of continuing to create!

Wow! So normally I read the comments before watching a video just to get a sense of what I'm watching and I was expecting this to be NOTHING about a macaw and the music to be blaring down my speakers according to some of these comments - none of which I found to be true by the way. It's evident that this was more Dave's thing rather than Jamie's, and I think it speaks to two different styles - Jamie likes to TELL us things and Dave likes to SHOW us things (I read a comment that mentioned that and she was spot on!). This is more a visual show of what happened with Mia (who IS a macaw and who would've gotten lost had they not caught the issue in time...so how is this clickbait?) Jamie and Dave produce hundreds of videos with quality content that is both entertaining and educational (including this one - it could save a bird's life outside!). So maybe you don't like Dave's style as much, you are welcome to have that opinion, but to call it "click bait" and "awful" is just flat out rude to the couple who are behind all this content. They have feelings and put a lot of effort into making videos for you - don't like ONE of them? Just move on. Maybe send them a nice "hey love your content but just had some suggestions" message or something. I, personally, PREFER the show method and really enjoyed this video. That doesn't mean I go hate bash all of the ones that are more "tell" style. Next time you leave a comment, imagine yourself on the other side of it.

I work with kids, not birds, but I love how their behavior changes tell me I’m doing the right thing. Humans have what we call extinction bursts, where when a behavior stops accomplishing what we want it to accomplish, we up the intensity of the behavior to see if that works. If you continue not to reward a behavior, the extinction burst will pass and the behavior will diminish. (Y’all probably already know this, but I want to give some context to the next statement in case people don’t know.) When I suspect a behavior is for attention, I ignore it, and the screaming gets louder or turns into swatting, I feel a sense of satisfaction that i am on the right track. I think you felt the same thing when Mia started having the fly offs and then quickly calmed down. So satisfying! Well done Dave for catching it and Katie for changing her behavior so quickly. 👏👏👏

Hi Dave and Jamie-Leigh, thanks for another fascinating training; there is always something new to learn( the Power Pause- would love to see more about that!) Also, thanks so much Katie, for letting us in on these sessions. I'd also like to share my response to the music. I enjoy music in videos, and I especially love what you've chosen for your freeflight video segments - for me it really elevates the viewing experience to another level. I think whether to have music at all, or what music to choose, depends on whether you see your video as primarily educational or primarily entertainment. These days there is a lot of music added to KZbin videos, for fear that the video would otherwise be boring, and that viewers would otherwise click off. Just speaking for myself, I am always glued to the screen when watching your content (which is always so well edited and presented, by 2 talented communicators!) I never just have your videos on in the background, and your videos are NEVER, EVER boring. Your training videos are my absolute favourite. During a training video it's not like watching a freeflight video, where i might just lie back and chill (entertainment! - bring on the music!). When watching a training video I imagine myself in the room with you guys, I watch the bird and everyone closely, try to work out when you are going to click the clicker or what your responses are going to be. I'm concentrating -- which is why I found the music in this one distracting. To be fair, hearing is the primary sensory channel for me, so l can't internally "switch off" music like some people can. Dave, I'm guessing you're more of a sensory multi-tasker - would you sometimes/often have music going in the room when you are training your own birds, perhaps you have headphones on sometimes? just wondering. But the right music might actually aid viewer concentration in an educational video. Could I suggest you experiment with music that is lighter in feel and more upbeat? i think part of my problem with the music was that the energy was so heavy and stressed-feeling. I do commend you guys for experimenting with your formats as you have done lately and trying different ways to present your content!

A guy in vegas did this in front of a crowd of people in a show. The birds he had were beautiful, one snow white and mixed with powder blue. The birds take off from his arms on both sides at the same time. They flew forward across this auditorium spaced apart, in perfect formation. And with that same orchestrated linearity, the birds turn near the and of the place, and cross over each other in the middle, just like your airshow pilots in planes. Now the birds are flying back to the stage over these people in the audience towards the guy with both arms extended. Again, the birds are in perfect formation. Then, the birds land on the opposite arms of this guy that they took off from. Both at the same time. Never seen anything like it before. Never seen anything like it since.

Katie is such a nice person. ^^ Her enthusiasm for her bird is so wonderful. I myself do not own a bird (yet), but the idea is growing on me. But that is something that also throws me off a little bit, because all the people in your videos (including you obviously) seem like thy always were fascinated by birds and always wanted to own a bird. Well.. now that I think of it.. Jamie wasn't a bird person either until she met you, right? So maybe there is something to it afterall.. P.S.: Please stop using the clickbait titles.. you don't need them.. I'd watch every video anyway, but I am a bit disappointed when it gets clear that it was just clickbait. And in this case it doesn't suit you in any way, because it makes the audience think that you actually did something wrong in preparing for free flight.

Yes, this can be appled to all birds. I think Jamie's guide is that if they come off the shoulder easily, they are allowed to perch there for a while, but if you have to struggle to get a step up from the shoulder, then they are not ready for that priviledge. Best to keep handling rules consistant with all members of household. Watch the parakeet (budgie_ series, but just keep watching how to get that good hand perch and prevent shoulder rush. Good luck

I think Jamie said the thumb over foot (feet) is more for communication than for restraint as a general rule. In my opinion it would be better to do the desensitization Dave referred to, also called: 'new people, places, & things every day,' 'progressive desensitization', rewarding for calm, allow an indoor flyoff, but come back to the scary situation in a controlled way. Your budgie will likely learn how to get over his fears. I think perhaps Dave's technique in the batting cage is maybe for an experienced handler helping the bird to make rapid progress.
@theparrotsvoice61435 жыл бұрын
Dave, I love most of yours and Jamie's videos, but this was not my favorite. Here's why: Nothing further was mentioned about Mia's weight loss. Mia's weight loss would have been a concern to me if Mia was my bird. I would have investigated this further before training for free flight to rule out a medical problem. Secondly, your rough and abrupt handling of Mia, to stop "babying" her while she was in the batting cage only furthered her stress levels. I don't believe that was the right time or the right way to help a highly sensitive bird overcome her fears. The seeming improvement while you were all in the batting cage i.e. Mia flying nicely to Katie, was to avoid you, not because she overcame her fears at that time.

Hey I appreciate your feedback, but without being there it's not actually something that can translate well on video. I did my best to show that.

Many do, yeah. Different makeup or hair color or fingernail polish can also freak them out. My parrotlet was terrified when I used henna to dye my hair a much brighter red, and when I got acrylic nails done for a job interview they scared her at first. And I'm very lucky, Sweetpea is a very confident bird and calms down really easily. For some birds, hats or new furniture or strange things can bother them so much that they'll scream until you remove the item from their environment, or even start plucking :( That's why exposing and desensitizing your birds to many experiences in a safe way as babies is so important. If it's not started early, it's much harder to do. Both my birds are rescues and my cockatiel is terrified of everything.

@@capearson4522 That makes a lot of sense! I didn't think of it until you mentioned it. I'm just glad my birds are small enough to get enough exercise flying indoors... They're too small to keep in sight and losing them is such a terrifying idea.

You don’t need the click bait. I don’t think I’ve ever said said something about the production quality of your videos, but please that music is horrible. I love to hear what you have to say. Maybe we need to pay now, but if you could let us hear what you have to say I would really appreciate it. I don’t have birds. I would love to get a bird, but I am a hard core guinea pig person and that is my pet right now. We have in laws who have loud plucking birds that I imagine are loved to some extent but certainly not well cared for ... Anyway love the channel. Loved this video without the horrid music. Maybe someday I will find a bird that I will convince my family can come to live with me.

I like watching some of your videos even if I don’t own birds! 😊 But, I’m not a fan of the videos, like this one, that look like a tv advertisement... I understand you have to market your business but I much prefer the documentary type feel. More personal, less, PLEASE buy our product/services. And I think you’ll reach more people that way. Sadly people are immediately turned off from KZbin add videos no matter the subject.

Can you talk a little bit more about the feet holding? Where and how should you hold the bird's feet? Is is different with smaller birds?

Ha, he was there to use the batting cage for baseball... Apparently that's the real world use for them, lol. Oops. :)
