Jasmine On Her Play Station
Jazzy has what we call a 'play station'.

It is made out of a stainless steel frame for a small side table, which used to have a glass surface on it before Jazzy appropriated it for her station. Attached to the top of this frame is the ladder-perch-set that came with her cage. It used to be on the top of the cage, but this seemed a bit high for everyday use; not for Jasmine of course, but for us! This unit is then placed on a table.
She has a great time going up and down it and it gives her a really good workout.
She climbs up the ladder to the very top and onto the wooden perch. From there she can get food and drink.
Jazzy's philosophy seems to be that any activity can be enhanced by having a snack.When she's refueled she goes off again at high speed. You can just about see the blur there in the photo as she goes down the ladder. I don't use the flash to take photos of Jasmine because it can cause damage to the eyes, so sometimes these photos are a little dark and out of focus. Clicking on a photo will show an enlargement of it.
She loves to stretch herself as far as she can; she's practicing for the role of elastagirl in The Incredibles!
Then she's off again doing a fireman slide down the frame.She comes out every day for at least several hours to play around the house. Usually she is free to come and go from her cage as she wishes, and this is one of the places she likes to hang out.

Lucky Jazzie... look at all those fun things she has to play with. Her playstation is a wonderful way to keep her busy and entertained... and you can see how much she loves it.
Are her wings clipped. We don't clip Mooky's wings.
Hi Sharon,
No, Jazzie's wings aren't clipped. When she's out and about around the house she flies as she wishes to and from her designated areas.
It's great not to have to clip the wings if possible. Mooky's a lucky little fella too!
Oh my goodness, what a lucky bird!!! I have never seen such a playground. My birds have play pens on top of their cages, but nothing as wonderful as this!!!
