After my initial fiasco with the screens. I decided to go slow by introducing the birds in the screened area. I should have known better since they freak out at even (what I would consider) benign new toys. i let linus and whook out and I TELL them ina soft voice "I'm closing the door..nice and gentle" So far, so good. yesterday, I let Patches in. So far so good.
I can't be impatient and just 'expect" them to be Ok with it. Yes, i should have known in the beginning. One day at a time.
