3. Siting

Aviaries that are closed on 3 sides should preferably face north. If the aviary is faced east, west or south there should be a partially uncovered flying area so that in the winter the birds can sit in the sun from early morning. In the beginning aviculturalists can only afford 1 or 2 aviaries. When you get to a time were there’s not much room for more bird – this calls for more aviaries. Be sure to site the very first aviary in a way so there is enough room to attached the next one on it. So that the aviary eventually form a neat whole.
