That is really nice. Airy and open to view the birds. I wish I lived where it was warm enough to have a loft like that.

Some of my pigeons just returning from their flight.

That's Snowman, Boo, Menace, Bully and Baron on the landing board.

Aloha EZE,
Nice loft. Where in Maui are you from? I'm from the Big Island,(Papaikou). I hope you aren't getting slammed by the rain like we are.

Is that a Hayden Mango tree next to your loft?

I'm in Lahaina. We've been lucky not too much rain like Kahului/ Wailuku but I heard Hana was getting most of it.

That's a common Mango that alot of my friend love to eat. I sometimes make pickled Mango cause get so much fruit. I love Hayden Mangoes too and my best friend has a big tree so we trade most of the time.

You got any Homer hens you wanna sell? I tried buying from the mainland but too many restrictions and requirements.

EZE,

I love your loft! I'm getting ready to build a new one and like your design so much I'm going to copy it with some small modifications.

I especially like the nest box/ perches. I can see how you ran boards across supported by ledgers on both sides. What is holding the dividers in place? How wide are the boards? Could you tell me the details of how the nest box assembly was done?

Love the picture of the birds returning and sitting on the roof.

Margaret
