Open Loft for 2009 Young Birds


I opened the loft today for the young birds. They've had a blast all day long. No hawks came to visit and everything was cool.

Nice pics. Looks like a screen on the ground in the first pic to allow them view of the sky first?

Isn't it great to watch them having such a good time - they look as if they're in Paradise!

I've got two like that. They look like someone poured bleach over them........LOL
Some of the birds were still in the loft and some were on the house. I've got a few nesting pairs now and all they want to do is cuddle in the nest boxes.

Yea, that's my settling cage. It hangs on the side of the loft. We've just been lazy and haven't hung it back up. I'm pretty much through with it for this year. Here's a picture of it when it's on the loft.

Guh, dont talk about bleach. My dad was doing laundry and put the bleach on the washermachine with the lid on a little, we left. Come back 5 min later and the bleach is all over the floor and on our clothe that were in baskets. I think i lost 4 good shirts and pair of shorts. My dad lost a few too

Boy do I miss that. I can't wait until I can get my loft set up in Florida this fall. I will probably start breeding early just so I can have some birds flying around the loft again.

I've lost 4 since March when they got out for the first time. But they've been flying around here long enough now that I shouldn't loose any more. Unless a hawk gets one, but no more should get lost.

It looks like they are really enjoying the first days of summer, I hope they continue to enjoy themselves.

That red bird is gorgeous too!

Your birds look wonderful. That loft of yours is big enough to be a nice sized house!!!!!!!! I'm sure your pigeons just love all the space!
