Plexiglass sounds like a great idea, very sturdy and safe. We used the dark brown/black deer fencing inside our iron fenced area in our yard and it has worked out well. We tied it on with matching zip ties and it doesn't look bad at all. They like it because they can still feel the breeze coming through the tiny holes.
