I wouldn't bring a clipped bird outside unrestrained either. Smaller birds especially are still strong fliers even with clipped wings, and you could easily loose her. Leave her fully flighted and use a travel cage/carrier for trips outside. That's what I do with my guys ... we often go on picnics with them inside their travel cages.
