Roxy and Sammy step-up to the perch today!

Both Roxy and Sammy stepped up to a hand-held perch today.  Sammy did it in her cage and I slowly took her out and she flew across the room and joined Ricky who was sitting on top of his cage.  (Ricky had already stepped up to my finger and flown over there minutes before.)  Roxy was still leary of stepping up to the hand-held perch, but when I turned my back for a second, she flew out of her cage and onto the floor.  From there she stepped up onto the hand-held perch and I delivered her to the top of Ricky's cage as well.

I am so excited, but it must have been tiring for the cockatiels, as they were all very quiet, and all almost immediately fell asleep on top of the cage.    They really like their freedom, although they don't quite know what to do with it (yet)!

Hooray for all three!
