BLUEBERRY ESCAPED! | My Budgie FLEW OUTSIDE From an Open Door!

When Blueberry flew towards you, she seemed intended to, but she litteraly changed her mind - like, I am gonna do one more tree - it's fun. Blueberry-the nerve-wreaker.

This shows how important recall training is! Whew! I almost had a heart attack!😰😰

I've lost a bird who escaped and unfortunately never made it back. So glad that you got Blueberry back! I'm going to work on recall training with my birds.

Glad this had a spoiler of blueberry in shot talking about this happening at the beginning of the video, not something I wanted to find out the result either at the end of the video or a later one

Lol Blueberry lands on the door, "Mom, let's go inside. This is too much out here."

My partner recently accidentally let both of my cockatiels out while we were on vacation.I was instantly able to recall my male mid flight and put him back into the carrier. My female was so spooked she flew extremely high, I followed her from tree to tree for 3 days from sun up to sun down. She is recall trained and made multiple attempts to get back to me but unfortunately she got out during an extremely windy week. My poor baby is still gone, the group of free flyers I work with tell me to keep up hope and that birds are discovered to be found months after being lost but it’s pretty hard to keep hope. It’s been heartbreaking.

This is one of the many things that sets you guys apart from all other professional bird people especially those very much in the public eye. You truly do it for the love and safety of parrots everywhere. Many people wouldn’t have shown this because their intent is all about impressing which is why you guys are so impressive. Just another reason for everyone to come be a part of BirdTricks. 👏Bravo.

My budgie flew out the door and I followed him from tree to tree, he wouldnt come down, this went on for 2 days, finally I found him close to home hungry and he came home. We are both very lucky.

It can happen to any of us... right? I'd have melted to the GROUND and been a blubbering mess. You should not be embarrassed... shows us you're human 🙂💜

The audacity of Blue to just absolutely ditch Jamie was hilarious

OMG 50 years ago I a Blueberry twin, I did not know about recall but I was doing it. I could call him from different rooms in the house, he had a way to call me back, something looking like my name which my dad did hate at 5 a.m. :( One day IT happened, in a big city, I was sure to have lost him there were many trees around. After many attempts, I kind of gave up, then, my neighbor came to tell me that my bird was in her backward calling me!!! If you have a budgie practice recall. Nice job Jamie, I am so glad you have Blue back.

I got home from work one day and couldn’t find my budgie anywhere. Someone had come in and left his cage open and my bedroom door open. I didn’t know where he’d be or how long he was gone for I just saw a window open in the kitchen facing a thick forest/bush area and started looking there. For the next 2 days I went out there morning till dark looking for him with a speaker blaring budgie contact call noises. On the second evening I started hearing him replying to the speakers and managed to spot him 2 stories up a tree. We had a great bond (he was probably starving too) so when he spotted me he instantly tried to fly down and got swept to the neighbours yard. This happened 3 times till eventually he landed in a tree I could actually climb. Im terrified of heights but I did it to get my little guy. Every single day from the next day I’ve done at least a couple minutes of recall and upping the difficulty of flight training (descending, ascending, turning corners, boomerangs, everything I can think of) also have built an aviary so he can get some wind practice. This all should of happened long ago before the accident, I’m ALWAYS so incredibly careful but I have learnt when you live with other people it doesn’t matter how careful you are anything can happen. Glad your little blue is safe. It’s so scary, I was literally balling my eyes out searching for him in the bush.

This shows what bonding , training and communication does for you and your 🐦

Blueberry: "chill girl, i was just getting some fresh air"

So glad you got blueberry back, this is why recall training is so important. I’m getting my first bird soon (a green cheek) and I will definitely be teaching them recall.

I had my rose breasted cockatoo get out for four days three nights with the help of everybody in our small town we got him back

I was gutted when I lost my young budgie bertie, he managed like blueberry to squeeze through a small cracked window, sadly I had only had him a month and I've never seen him again. I still have two budgies, and have never let anything happen to them from the lesson learned. I'll never stop hoping bertie somehow landed somewhere safe, despite all my efforts to find him- and that someone else had the joy of his company

About ten years ago I got a call from a friend who rescued a "yellow" bird in the park and wanted to give it to me, since I had parakeets. I was expecting to see a canary, but it was a parakeet. He had the cutest personality, and I miss him. He passed away last year. But, I often thought of his previous owners and how devastated they must have been when he flew off.

Blueberry's trying to tell you she wants to freefly🤣

good training! My parakeet “mustard”, flew away when I was 12. He had a favorite bell he loved and wore like a hat half the time. When he flew away, he was gone, out of sight. I couldn’t imagine not having him, so I got the bell and walked the green belts in our neighborhood, ringing it, I heard him chirp and followed it, climbed a pine tree and he came to the bell and went home with me!❤️❤️❤️❤️🌈
