Wow, what a unique aviary! How do you enter, and how do you keep birds from escaping when you do?

And welcome to the forum! There's lots of good reading at the Finch Information Center, linked at left, and the members are always ready to help. If you put your location in your profile, it makes it easier to answer locale-specific questions later on.

Is the door the part that has rolls up and down? It looks like the plastic is held with velcro or the like.

Thanks everyone. You enter thru the side that has the plastic vinyl. It overlaps it's self so it closes behind you. The Velcro is mainly for peace of mind and the bungee just braces it if it sags a bit due to heat/wind.

It would be difficult for a birdie to get pass me as I enter or exit. As it were my brother says it looks like the aviary is giving birth every time go in or out... :roll:

The last photo shows the outer door down and can be secured at the bottom. I'll post more photos with plants and finches. ;)

Can't wait to hear how it holds up and works long term. This just may be a project for us to do next spring ;)

Is that a cattle panel used as the frame? I love the tropical look to it.

Seriously adorable. Looks like you bought the tropics to NC. Fun design!
