There are reasons (positive and negative) why 'hidden' or 'conspicuous' security measures are employed . . and these would be obvious to most . . so I guess it comes back to personal choice

But never disclose 'how they work' . . to anybody

One reasonably cheap and quite effective method is the use of sensor lights facing outwards from the aviary perimeter . . They will deter both human and animal intruders . .

I once thought this was mainly a problem for parrot breeders...but i have recently heard of several finch breeders (particularly in the Western suburbs) having their finches stolen...and birds that are not extremely expensive either. If this happend to me I would be more devistated that the hard work I had put in had been destroyed more so than the monetary value of the birds stolen.

2 big dogs, a good security system and good neighbours are some measures, but at the end of the day if a theif wants to get in they will....just ask Nathan Tinkler (Mining magnate from NSW) whose house was broken into last month...they took documents and his $500,000 Ferrari whilst his family was asleep...what hope do the wrest of us have if they can break into the house of one of the richest people in the country.
