free issue of Good Bird magazine (positive reinforcement training with parrots)

[jenseits]

Hi I'm reposting the notice about the free issue of Good Bird magazine. Hope it doesn't seem spammy, but not very many people saw it in the other subforum (or at least it seems that way since no one responded, which surprised me because it's really a cool resource).


Download free issue of Good Bird Magazine.

About the author/editor: Barbara Heidenreich an expert avian trainer and author of the books "Good Bird! A Guide to Solving Behavior Problems in Companion Parrots" and "The Parrot Problem Solver: Finding Solutions to Aggressive Behavior".

Here's a sampling of the articles from the latest issue of the magazine:

* The ABC’s of Behavior By Susan G. Friedman, PhD
* Enrichment (Part Two) Foraging Opportunity:
* An Integral Component of Environmental Enrichment By Jim McKendry
* Training your Parrot to Talk on Cue By Barbara Heidenreich
* What Is Your Bird Saying? Learn to Read Bird Body Language
* Flighted Parrots in the Home By Barbara Heidenreich
* The Avian Brain and Intelligence (Part Two) By Diane Starnes
* Pickin’ Parrots: Scientific Studies and Feather Picking By Natasha Laity Snyder

Hint: The page you hit on the Good Bird site before you can actually download the magazine has a contact form. You can leave it blank and just hit return if you don't want to enter anything - that'll take you to the actual magazine.

Thanks for letting me repost!!

You will want to right click and save it locally and then open it from your desktop (or wherever you saved it). DO NOT click on the link and try to open it in your browser - your computer will likely freeze up like mine did.

Hope you find it worthwhile!
