Aviary

Duffys Forest, New South Wales, Australia · Photographed in Duffys Forest, 2017

The skeletal frame of an abandoned aviary rises from the bushland of Waratah Park. Corroded metal mesh and decaying timber define its forgotten enclosure. Once sheltering exotic birds, it now stands empty, a relic of its past purpose.

From the field notes

A mesh-walled aviary sits on a gentle slope, its olive-green steel frame darkened by shade cloth. Eucalyptus forest presses in from every side. The surrounding ground is uneven, scattered with rocks and tufts of lomandra. A weathered timber fence leans at the edge of an overgrown path. The sky is flat and grey. Everything is damp.

— Brett Patman
