Papillae are pointed structures inside a bird's mouth. Did you know that their color, size and shape can indicate nutritional health?
Bit disappoitnment that famous exotic bird vet clipped her wings😔
0:58 the international duck exclusive sound macaws make at the vet. 😂 every macaw owner knows. I thought it was just my child that made that sound
Teamwork and love 🦜 ❤
Good luck for the teenager phase. There are good training videos from BirdTricks. You'll need that for when hormones turn your sweet baby into a biting monster ( the period at which alot of owners sell their macaw or put it in a shelter. Nobody likes getting stitches because sweet angel had another mood swing. ).
so how long is she going to live? 50 years?…….so sad these birds are pets! They should be free to fly int the forrest and live with their own kind.
She is a super good handler for Macaw. Nice and gentle too.
Qué hermoso ANIMALITO. Gracias qué lo rescataron de dónde seguramente no lo cuidaban, ni le daban cariño. 😘😘❤️❤️🙏🙏😁😁🌸🌸
She is so precious. I dont feel birds should be kept as pets. But Im glad this beautiful animal is in the care of such loving people.
I have a macaw and he loves to give hugs and kisses enjoy her
So sweet. Ashley was a rockstar. You can tell how much she cares. Whew that got me all teary eyed! So glad she had a great rescuer and isbon track to a better life.
I love Dr K’s show. To me it doesn’t matter how brilliant you are or that you are a genius none of that matter. Dr K has all of that great . What I see as a the number 1 quality , she has that makes her so great is SHE has heart ❤️ ❤. Every animal is special to her, that is what makes her so great.
How is Sophia and the owner doing now that it's been a year? I feel that Sophia had a deep sould and she knew her new owner was going to love her. ❤️
I had one of these guys grab my finger once… wouldn't let go either. Wasn't pleasant to say the least, they are quite strong as you can tell. Beautiful bird
birb feel good now
Sophia’s new owner has a great heart. Love her
These birds are like $5k if you don’t adopt, the fact that they used to eat just peanuts is wild to me. Not that any bird should eat that, just a cost difference comparison
great vet and such a great vet nurse. she was so into her patient – and a great personality. i loved watching her “flying” the bird. 🙂 👩🏾⚕️🦜🌷🌱
i am learning so much about the emotions of birds and totally amazed. their emotional feelings are so sensitive. just look at her laying her head on her new mom. i swear i see an expression in those eyes. she knows she’s safe. 🙂 beautiful vid – thanks 🙂 🦜🌷🌱
How far do I have to travel to have this woman hold my parrot for a vet. I am terrified about having to take my girl to her first vet visit and apparently if I can’t hold her then one of the vet students will (I don’t want a student handling her without having experience)
I want her!
Every so often, I like coming to these series and watching it again
Her poor clipped wings…
They handled her so well. And she was a total sweetheart! She could have bit their fingers off but she didn't.
I love she is holding the bird like a baby ❤️
“Made friends with her instantly”” lol after strangling it for 5 seconds 😅😅😅😅😂
She’s beautiful,so is Sophia.
This just goes to show that everyone responds to love
These birds r nice.
So pretty and so sweet!
Sophia e linda ate chorei com a mamae dela acariciando
