Letters to the Editor

Abstract

Dear Mr. Jennings:
I thoroughly enjoyed reading the
article on Mr. Walter Moe and his
finches in the August/September issue
of Watchbird. I have a number of
questions and I hope you will be able
to assist me.
1. Looking through all my catalogs,
I do not see the feeder that is
shown on Walter's cages listed anywhere.
Can you provide a source to
contact?
2. The perch holders look unique
also, and I was unable to find them
either.
3. Looking at your photographs, it
appears the backs and sides are
opaque plastic, but the top appears to
be the same as sheet metal. Wouldn't
the top be translucent?
4. If each cage is individual, does
that refer to housing or the cage
itself? I see the side brackets for holding
the plastic but see nothing for
holding the bottoms or attachment to
the plastic back. How is that
done? I'm amazed!
5. The wire on the front of the
cage looks like a single piece for all
cage fronts. Does it attach to the plastic
sides? If so, how? Can the plastic
be removed from the front to give it a
64" length?
