Palm trees...blue skies...aviaries bigger than my house....I'm gonna change deities...your Gods are obviously better than mine.

nothing to do with the gods Paul.
the old english judges/magistrates who thought they were punishing the great great grandparents actually did them a favour. what a great punishment/sentence, having to put up with blue skies for the rest of your natural life lol

They are incredible Fincher.. Wish I had the room to do the same.. I do plan to post pics of my small indoor aviary when I can finally get to building it.

This is for PoohBear.

I'm not trying to hijack your post.. but I just can't resist sometimes..

sounds good. how do you plan to attach the nests and what sort of watering system will you have (still trying to work mine out lol)

Wow, those are nice setups. I built a small aviary but I can only have one pair of each species of finch and I want more of each kind. I would love an aviary I can walk in.
