First we laid out the wood for the base and held it in place with stakes.
Then we stapled the landscape material in place to stop the gravel getting muddy.
After that we filled it with gravel, (well I say we, but I had to shovel one tonne of gravel myself!). We started to bring in the wooden sections Paul had made during the week for us.
The first half of the aviary was screwed together and squared up. this meant that when we screwed the second section on it would be square as well.
The roof started to go on.
The second section was screwed together and the roof struts were screwed in place for the last part of the roof.
The roof was attached and the shiplap nailed in place, the hole in the roof is for the bird to sit in the rain if he wishes to.
Finally the felt was tacked down and the wood painted, the wire in the hole has been attached but I took this picture before that happened.
