September Content Schedule
For September since we are going to be traveling so, so much, some things will be a little different.Instagram Lives:There will be no scheduled lives this month, but there will be many random ones so stay tuned to @birdtrickslive on Instagram so you can be sure to catch some of them! I will let them stay up for 24 hours as well so as many of you get a chance to see them as possible. We hope to throw these in at our many workshops, masterclasses and fun events planned in Australia.Please DM me on Instagram to let me know your account is connecte...

Embrace your pace with your bird
Touché has a lesson for us all this week!
Morgan Merch is in!
You can check out all the items available in Morgan's design here.
BTT | Flight Training Series (Off Limit Locations)
A lot of these outdoor off limit locations may sound like common sense to some, and not so much for others. We can all learn from not only our own mistakes but the mistakes of others to improve our bird's lives.What are your off limit locations?
Bandit's design is here...
Bandit merch is available now! Check out his store front here.A big thank you to the two artists who brought Bandit's design to life 💗. For the illustration encompassing his monster fluff-ness, thank you (Vanessa) and for the design work that made it all speak to me, thank you (Taz). Bandit's merch concept was going in an entirely different direction before, but this experience has made me take it here... and I am so touched by all your stories and when you share how he touched your life in one way or another. Love you, Ban-dandit. C...
Just a little update...
Love you guys. Thanks for your endless support.
Who do you want to see Touché meet from my flock?
I'm ready to introduce Touché to some of my flock (besides over a meal like Tasty Tuesday) so who do you want to see him meet? My sun conures are currently on vacation in Florida, so you won't see them as an option this time around... although that would have been chaotic and fun!Why are the macaws not an option, either? The size difference is too drastic for my taste and safety comes first!
Bandit's final merch design + Tusa
I don't know how my designers are working so fast this month... but I already have the final design for Bandit and the artwork for Tusa to head to the graphic designer with soon.Bandit's design is still not live yet but I will be sure to let you guys know when it is. I've been working on having storefronts for each bird designed so I can offer more variety in merchandise that you've all been requesting so those are coming soon.Thank you all for your support lately... it means the world. It has been a welcome distraction to work ...
Bandit Boy Merch in the works
This is Bandit's merch design in the works. Originally I had this artist working on both Bondi and Bandit together in a chaotic crazy fun design that would accompany "Embrace the crazy" but when I lost him I couldn't focus on that design path anymore. So I switched focus to something that spoke more to me to represent just him... this is the progress of the design itself. His fluffy, calm and whispering self.
How to get your Quaker parrot to like everyone!
An update on Lefty the Quaker parrot getting to know more and more people, and be properly socialized in preparation of being adopted!

FINALLY! This artwork is actually a painting of her I had done by an artist on Instagram. Combined with the graphic design I really love it. Do you?
Storm Merch is in!!!
I just got the design in - what do you guys think?! (It is not available yet!)
Should you take your IRN on a road trip? Probably not...
Touché doesn't make the best road trip buddy...
Project Bird Pins Coming Soon!
So I have some pretty exciting news. My sponsors of Touche received special Touche pins their second month of sponsorship and through doing that I formed a relationship with that company (Hyper Finch) and we decided to collaborate on an exclusive line of Project Bird pins! These will be available in their store via direct order, and I also ordered a small set of 20 to prove commitment.I let HF decide which birds to begin with and the first two they designed were Lefty and Morgan. I thought Lefty was especially adorable!These are still about 5 w...
Tasty Tuesday (Spooky Pops)
Although these were created as a Halloween recipe - you will find many of my holiday recipes can be used year-round and modified to fit just about any other holiday, too! I hope you guys like this one and share what you created! Remember, there's always ways to make the recipes fit your bird from making them a different size, to adding other flavors!I hope that you loved that we got to use Lefty and Touché for this one! It was so fun to incorporate them.
Lefty Meets Morgan!
Pre-release video of Lefty for patrons! This video goes public August 8.

BirdTricks Tuesday (Random Rewarding!)
This month's BirdTricks Tuesday is probably our FAVORITE training technique of all!
New Merch!
My toucans+ have been part of the creation process of my merch designs, and although some are still in the works, here is where my merch line is so far. My line represents not only my own flock members, but my project birds. I wanted each bird to have something relatable, some double meanings, some things open to interpretation. Let me know which ones you connect with most...Rocko "Be the fruitloop in a world of cheerios"KIDS SIZESADULT T-SHIRTSADULT HOODIESI wanted Rocko's message to be colorful (even though toucans aren't nece...

Conure + Cressi Merch Designs!
I'm obsessed with this "little by little" and loving how different every single design has been. I hope you guys like them too!Here is Cressi's:I originally wanted veggies incorporated in but they didn't look as good in the actual design so I figure since this applies to lifestyles in general, I would let the fruit live... even though it's just a treat food!!
Touch training is fun! Have you done it yet?!
Tell me a in comment if you've trained your bird to do this yet!
Rocko Merch Preview!
I just got this design back for Rocko's merch and I am loving it. I know toco toucan's aren't the most colorful birds, but I felt like I wanted so much more color to his design and this nailed it for me. What do you guys think? I hope to be adding it to the store by the end of the month or so!
Lefty is a GREAT roadie!!!
You guys, I'm even a BIGGER fan of Lefty now after our recent trip! It's my greatest hope that he is his future owner's EVERYTHING. That they include him in most aspects of their lives (except when they're cooking or going to the bathroom...)
