What kind of spider makes this web, and how do I remove it?

We live in the mountains on the US east coast. We have a large hole about 12 feet up the inside wall in our not-quite-finished-but-still-occupied indoor aviary. (Yup….indoor…..as in INSIDE my HOUSE.)

However, Creationists [...]

What kind of floor is best suited for an outdoor aviary?

The concrete foundation in our aviaries will seriously injure a baby bird that might fall. Artificial turf is costly, sand/dirt will blow away. The other issues to consider are whether the material we use will house bacteria if it can’t be easily cleaned. Yikes this is hard.
