Mixed Small Bird Aviary in China Guangxi Nanning (3 of 3)

We have now become the local "This is where you take birds you do not want any more" place.
So far, we have inherited one yellow budgerigar and two partridges ( A pear tree would be good!) and a Hwamei Garrulax Canorus.
Be warned - The Love birds love the Water Lilly flowers, eating them, that is.
And yes, they can be a little domineering to new entrants.
But by allowing newbies and the love birds time to adjust, by placing the new arrivals inside the aviary in a separate cage for a few days has done the trick.
Now they all get along just fine.
The fish have not suffered in any way, although I am noticing a change in the water colour, much greener, probably due to increase sunlight. 
Soon I will need to rectify this, not sure how at the moment.
Can't find any Barley sprigs here in China, as I know this works well.

Part 1 and Part 2


Follow up - Sadly the aviary is no longer there, in 2012 this area was demolished and made way for a car park
