It's been windy here today and I raced home in a panic worried my lorikeet/galah's aviary may have blown over as the tiedowns needed replacing, to my relief it was still there. However as I walked down to say hello to the birds I realised it had shifted just slightly and a hole had opened on one corner. I was worried that my birds may have got out but thankfully they were all sitting up on their perches...accompanied by 5 crested pigeons

 

 

So now I have sorted the aviary and removed the pigeons but I will have to keep my babies under close supervision to make sure they haven't picked up any nasties :sad:

Hahaha that's hilarious.

:sad: you must have pretty good accommodation for pigeons to choose to move in rather than being free

 

I hope your birds stay healthy

Actually I just about wet my pants laughing until the thought of the nasties they could be carrying occured to me

Your babies will probably be fine.

Imagine all those sparrows they come into contact with everyday.

I think so too SW, these same pigeons sit on the fence near the aviary all day. Actually 've never seen a single sparrow or indian myna around the house, the only non-natives we get are spotted doves.

I get heaps of sparrows. My aviary is also supporting a family of blackbirds as well. It is kinda cute watching the little male sparrows dance for their girlfriends in front of the aviary though.

ahhh doves.... i hate them... always steal my dogs biscuits and do their business all over the outdoor setting... :reading:

Oh my, I can't believe the pigeons got in there lol :reading:, hopefully your birds will be okay.
