<p><a href="http://www.birdsupplies.com/The-Aviator-Bird-Harness-p/puv001xx.htm"><strong>The Aviator Harness</strong> </a>for birds combines a harness with a leash.  The Aviator attaches with a single – no buckles, no clips, no snaps, or heavy hardware for a secure fit.  Made from sturdy nylon strapping, the Aviator  Bird Harness is flexible enough to be comfortable. The leash allows for some flight and the length can be increased by adding a flight line or even a retractable leash &#8211; giving them even more flight distance.</p>
<p><em><strong>Why We Recommend the Aviator Bird Harness</strong></em></p>
<p>Most bird harnesses have several buckles and clips making them difficult to figure out how to use.  <a href="http://www.birdsupplies.com/The-Aviator-Bird-Harness-p/puv001xx.htm">The Aviator Harness </a>has 4 basic steps and nothing requires fastening – only tightening. The design also makes it great for small birds.</p>

</script></div><p><em><strong>Recommendations</strong></em></p>
<p>Buy a toy parrot like the one he uses in the video. The design is simple and the harness is easy to use, but practicing on something with wings would have been inordinately helpful for me. The first time I was all fumble fingers because I knew theoretically how it went on, watched it be put on, but I did not have the grace borne of experience those first few times.</p>
<p>We associate putting the Aviator harness on with outdoor “walk” time with our parrots. Once securely on, we always go immediately outside so our parrots associate it with a fun outdoor activity. Parrots quickly learn that they get to go outside when they see you get the Aviator. </p>
<p>As a bird owner, I cannot say enough good things about the <a href="http://www.birdsupplies.com/The-Aviator-Bird-Harness-p/puv001xx.htm">Aviator Bird Harness</a>.  This product is highly recommended.</p>
