Blackstone Aviaries's Babies in their new Home. Mel at home with his new Hyacinth Rio. In the background are macaws Marine and Sunny. Darren with Polo. Darren is a fabulous bird trainer and has taught Polo to free fly. Do not try this at home !! Unless you are a seasoned bird trainer like Darren and your bird is highly trained you will loose your bird. Darren loves to send me pictures that give me heart attacks .
