Oh my goodness Robin - Beau looks like a totally different bird! He is looking so pleased with himself - and you should be so proud of yourself too!
Is that a flight feather coming in on the bottom photo? What an accomplishment! Thanks for the update Robin ~ he's beautiful.

Awww, be still my heart he is such a sweet guy! His feathers are looking good, he is just gorgeous. He looks so comfortable and poised in your home. Good for you Robin.
Awk hes such a cute little guy
Was his feathers really bad then? i ask this as my bird has started plucking and his chest is in a terrible state
Great pictures Robin, fingers crossed that Beau will let his new flight feathers grow and be flying soon!!!

Beau has 3 flights coming in on his right wing. Recap of what happened, Beau suffered an injury which caused him to pluck his chest completely bare. He had also plucked most of his back feathers out and had chewed his right wing to the point of complete destruction. His vet removed 22 flights and secondary feathers from his right wing in an effort to promote new growth. This is our progress from that point in October.

Beau is looking good Robin, what an improvement he has made and in a few months time he will be so handsome, what an accomplishment this must be for you Robin, you should be very proud of yourself and of Beau.
Thanks for the pictures and can't wait to see an update soon with more feathers coming in.
Never take life seriously, no one gets out alive anyway!
Beau looks so beautiful, thanks for sharing the pictures. Great update
You have done a wonderful job Robin.
You certainly set the example of someone going ALL OUT no mater what it takes to get a rescue back in tip-top shape.
Karma to you. :-)
Within all of us is a varying amount of space lint and star dust, the residue from our creation. Most are too busy to notice it, and it is stronger in some than others. It is strongest in those of us who fly and is responsible for an unconscious, subtle desire to slip into some wings and try for the elusive boundaries of our origin. ~K.O.
