Putting on Harness and Going Outside for the First Time

The video isn't too exciting I'm afraid but as a treat I stuck some petting Truman in the end. The best part was taking him outside wearing the harness. It kept his mind off the harness for a bit and he really didn't try to fly off. I showered him down outside, waited till he dried, and then brought him back in. He's not very cuddly in general but he just melted in my hands after the shower and enjoyed petting and beak scratches. Hopefully I'll be able to get someone to video me taking him outside soon.

I've also been making progress on recall training but I'll have a separate blog/video update about that toward the end of the week.
