This would depend on a lot of things. I don't see a pic of the cage, did you post one in the gallery?



Okay where are you located or what kinds of temps do you have at night?



How secure is your cage from predators?



Do you live in the country where cats, raccoons, oppossums, etc might try getting at your bird and if not actually able to get to the bird may cause it a great deal of stress? Or are you located in a town or city where you might have to worry about stray dogs/cats or even curious neighborhood children that might accidentally let your bird out?



Personally I would never leave a bird outside overnight, I don't even let them out during the day unless they are supervised but we do have a lot of cats and dogs in our area that I would worry about. I do know of other people and even sanctuaries that have outdoor enclosures for their birds where they stay overnight and sometimes even year round so a lot would depend on how you answer the above questions.
