Скачать или смотреть BIRD FLIGHT ADAPTATION (IMPORTANCE OF USING FLIGHT HARNESS)

I feel that this is important to show. Despite only have two fully grown and one growing (pin) primary feathers out of her 10 primaries, she can still steer and fly for quite long distances. She cannot gain lift but can maintain it surprisingly well. It shows how well adapted birds are to flying with minimal feathers.

Thus, parrot harnesses should be used on parrots at all times when outdoors, regardless if the bird is flighted or not. The harness ensures their safety as they can't fly away when spooked. If they do fly, you can reel them back in with the harness. Ensure that you have a good quality harness to prevent leash snapping incidents. They may be pricey but it's worth it for your bird.
