Ohh! Very pretty birdies! I'm new with birds, so i'll try to guess the kinds of birds all of these are. Benny is a congo african grey, Jimmy is a type of kakiriki (don't know how to spell that xD), Pete seems like a cockatoo, Rosy is a lovebird, and Billy is a lorikeet?

Pretty good for being new with birds. Jimmy is an orange wing tipped amazon but other than that you got them all right.

I love Billy! Lories are an addiction of mine. Probably won't ever own one, but I will dream!

Pete and Jimmy are the only 2 of mine that I can have out at the same time. I think the big thing with being owned by more than one bird is knowing your birds personalities. There are times when I can have Benny out in the aviary with them but NEVER without supervision. They prefer company so I sit and read while they're playing. Billy can't be out with any of them because he is totally crazy and for some reason will fly directly at them. Most times when he's out he is pretty much attached to me anyway. I call him my velcro birdie. ;D Benny thinks he's a dog so he is totally bonded to my Jack Russel. I call my house the home of the odd couples

I love the outdoor enclosure. Did you build it yourself? If so, how? This is something I have really wanted to do, but on a much smaller scale since I only have one tiny green cheek and we won't be living in this house for more than a few more years.

We actually constructed it out of one of those gazebos and added extra to it to make is sturdy to handle the wire. Has double door that open towards the house and I tie them shut right now because we haven't added the closure to them yet. I think we'll put some magnet closures and maybe a hook to lock when we are out there with them. Here's a picture

Well stay out of the humidity if that's the case. It was very humid here today as well so I spent very little time out there with them. I also have a play tree set up in the basement for them to enjoy and they get to watch talk, talk no squawk at the same time.. There just a little spoiled.

thats brillant, i bet you love to see your birds out like that. Im thinking of attaching a small avairy to the house, outside the window where my birds are, so they can just go out when they want. It wont be this year, the weather has been pretty grim for summer. My conure has a harness, and he has not been out as much as i would like, because of the weather.
That is so nice ;D
