Severe Macaw and 2 Timneth Greys I live in Upstate New York, USA My name is Gail	If I were one of your Keets, I would call that pure Paradise!!!!! Is that redwood or cedar you used on the top...I know either one costs an arm and a leg!! eek. You've done a fantastic job and the best part is it looks like you can see everything going on from your window! Looks like the perfect place for it! PS...If you get a chance I would really love to see some close ups of your pond!!!!

California My name is Andy	I used pine & doug fir. I read somewhere that redwood & cedar have tannins in them that can be toxic to birds, although I don't know if this is true. I don't think it matters much as I don't think the birds actually "eat" the wood, I think they just bite it off & spit it out :nuts: It's more the frustration relieving therapy of destroying something that they seem to like :angry: I used Linseed oil as a preservative, you just paint it on & it helps protect the wood from moisture, etc. I now have the roof on & the double entry doors attached, plus some other little "innovations" of mine! B) I'l take some more photos today & post them later. Thanks for all the nice comments, I've really put some time, thought (& money) into this, so I hope it turns out good :)
