Dear student
Assuming that the cage is closed . When the bird starts flying than the bird pushes the air in downward direction and in return get an equal force in upward direction according to newtonsthird law.The air which is pushed in downward direction applies force at the base of the cage and hence the weight of the cage increases.Regards
