I know. That's the last thing I want, no matter how nice a feeling it is. Their food has been cut right down now. They're living in the outbuilding in the cage but with the door open so hopefully they'll start to be less interested in humans and more interested in their kin.

Did they fly?
I am pleased to say....they did! A day or two in the shed, and returning to the cage at night which was hung up, and then one morning out they went. A few days later they (I can only assume) came for a nose and started swooping in low circles around me and since then they seem to have joined a local flock and hopefully have been integrated back into their natural habitat!
I have short videos and still shots of various stages of their upbringing, and I will try and get some sort of video montage together for you all to see when I get the time!
