Expanding The Aviary

This weekend we hope to clean out the other fenced-in garden area to use as our second aviary space. These two areas are 25 x 30 foot fenced pens in which the former owners used to garden. The fences were used to keep deer and rabbits out of the gardens and the wire has long since rusted away but the posts are in great condition.

The new area will be for Cockatoos and maybe Macaws. In between the two areas is a wooden playhouse structure made out of treated 2x4's. We may turn this into a magnificent cage for TJ our Umbrella Cockatoo. Nothing we are doing at this time is our final arrangement for the birds. Rather, we are settling in our flock until we agree on a permanent design.

I'll try to publish photos this weekend to give you a feel for the aviary.
