I have seen some birdcages built very close to neighbors and personally, I would not like that at all. I had a similar thing back where I moved from. The new neighbor put up a wooden fort with ropes, swings, and a slide right next to my property line. I appealed it to the the Architectural Review Board but they said it was set back far enough on his property. Luckily, his kids did not like it after the 1st week and did not play on it.
The view is very important to me. That is why I bought a re-sale home that is golf course front. Of course, I did check to see if golf balls would come to the yard. In 17 months, 5 golf balls in side yard. Not too bad - and a "million dollar" view.
Naturally, first thing is to see if the birdcage will be approved by ARB. If it is not approved, problem solved. If it is approved, I would talk with the neighbor to see if he has a major objection to your birdcage. If he does, let your conscience be your guide.
