Bird- House: Among the more creative touches to the spot is the atypical use of an old but elegant bird cage.
“When we took over the space, we noticed that there was this large vintage bird cage,” Hernandez said. “We painted it black with a green patina and we nestled it right behind the barbecue. It masks the electrical panel” that controls the power for the entire bird- house.
If a bird is to become a pet, obtain a very young bird. Young birds become gentle and respond to training much more quickly. Once a bird is given companionship with others of its kind, it loses all interest in humans.
Maintain the bird in a small cage, such as the usual type of canary cage.
Birds are exceedingly sensitive to sudden movements and to loud noises. They must be approached and handled with slow, even motions and spoken to in low tones.
For single bird, use commercial canary cage. Cover bottom of cage with z-inch layer of bird gravel. Place well-branched limb in cage; entertainment for bird.
