Cheers Alan :toast:

The one thing about the new place compared to the old place is we can at last provide our birds with their own land to fly over, something they have never had, I know they are captive bred birds but hey, they still deserve land to fly over :smile:

Now we are getting the birds active, this is what I call a sense of normality, :jump:
