@bstrippy1664 if they don't use it they won't be protected from the elements. Also with a cage front when you need to get a bird and they fly in to get away from you if you can close it off from the aviary side you can just catch the bird from a cage instead of chasing them around the flight.

Ben I watched your where have the black birds gone video today, and in our area I have noticed that on a sunny day there are so many planes going up and down causing stripes in the air, and upon researching this further my husband and I have found that we are indeed suffering from chemtrails which have been admitted to of late. These chemicals affect wildlife, so I am not surprised. Also we are breathing this stuff in as are our kids, but it seems that money talks louder than peoples thoughts.
