Parrot aviary

Previous - Next

2225. The parrot aviary is generally a building formed on purpose, with a glass roof, front, and ends; with shades and curtains to protect it from the sun and frost, and a flue for winter heating. In these, artificial or dead trees with glazed foliage are fixed in the floor, and sometimes cages hung on them; and at other times the birds are allowed to fly loose. An aviary of this sort was built at Morden by the late Abraham Gold-schmidt.
