We finally almost finished the new bird room / office yesterday and moved the bird's upstairs. Here is the final project this morning with Miran at work and the birds exploring.
Miran still needs to hang the rope perches from the ceiling, but they are still wet because I ran them all through the dishwasher yesterday. He also wants to install lights under the shelves that are over the windows. These shelves are hopefully to prevent the birds from chewing on the window frame. We also nailed plexiglass over the mullions and on the window sill to keep them from chewing on those as well. Notice also the shelf on top of the space heater on the far wall. It has tile on top so will be easily cleanable (unlike the heater) when it gets pooed on. We also got a plastic chair mat to put under the hanging rope perches for the same reason. And the new, built in bird table also has a tile top for easy cleaning and lots of storage space beneath. Finally, the cage is new. Its almost exactly like the old one, but that had a few rust spots so we got them a new one for the new room.
Here it is with the separating curtain drawn. A few adjustments to the curtain will be made when Mommy gets here - they have already been peeking through the top between the curtain and the rail, so that needs to be blocked. Also the whole thing needs to be hemmed. We also want to add some velcro to the walls so we can secure the sides so they can't get around the curtain.
And here is the abandoned old bird room ready for a serious cleaning and some cage deconstruction.
And here is Azra's room as storage depot with a lot of the stuff that will go in the old bird room when it becomes Milada's bedroom.
I thought I'd include another picture of our Christmas tree now that it actually has some presents underneath.
And finally, here is Miran's target after a round of shooting yesterday - all four in the yellow. The second photo is taken from where he stands when he shoots.








The bird/office room looks great! What a neat idea to combine the two together. Hopefully the birds won't be too distracting :) I bet they will love being able to see Miran while he works.
