Each of the last four years Ken has conducted a workshop at the Birdtique in Redondo Beach, CA.  Thanks to the South Bay Bird Society, Paul & Tammy Carreiro,  Janet Ragonesi and Karen Allen, for their support and hospitality.

Birdtique 2003 In 2003, because of the ENDS crisis in California, Ken held  a  “bird free” workshop.  He used his toy macaw, Max, to demonstrate taming techniques.  Those that came back for the 2004 teased Ken that they came back a second time to see if his techniques worked with real birds.

 

Birdtique 2004

 

In 2004 it was back to hands-on with real birds (all bird slots sold out) and we had a great group of birds and people.    Special thanks also to Tammy Careirro for her invaluable assistance.
