Feeding Time

Featured Replies

Very nice pictures shannon, how many birds do you have now.

I see that you have a problem with Water coming in. Becareful of that.

 

Also the Feeder is covered in droppings. Might pay to give it a clean and move it to a position that is not in their direct firing line.

I had a problem in my old avairy with the water coming in. I dont see how you can stop it if you have one side wire? The wind will blow the rain straight through the wire.

 

How do you stop the water coming in?

Very nice, I like the last shot of them all in the bowl, and the last 2 pictures didn't come out.

Good tips from Daz ;).

Plastic blinds work...see what Dave Mc Minn did with huis aviary. Also over hang the roof sheeting by enough and you will defeat the rain.

I see you are using a drinker as a feeder. The feeders are a different shape to the drinkers.

hey kaz i did that because i like the drinker beter than the feeders

Shannon,

 

As Kaz said, i had that problem of the rain coming in, but I bought some plastic blinds for the front to prevent the rain. On wet days they are down, preventing rain, on hot days, up.

 

here is the aviary with the blinds on it

I particularly like this photo where one is just taking flight. Birds in flight look beautiful, I love the wing span. :P
