When I used to keep pet birds I would only cut one wing and leave the other one alone. This was done so that the bird could not fly. Just trimming both wings the bird can actually fly but not very far. I tried that once and sure enough the little guy could fly for about 5' and then plop to the ground. When I did one wing only he could not fly at all period.
