A
Continental flavour this week, as we learn about some knockout species being
bred by our fellow birdkeepers in Europe. These include two gorgeous types of
tanager that are producing brood after brood for one much-envied Italian
fancier. Staying in Italy, we enjoy a personal account of the famous annual
show at Cesena, where UK judges are traditionally welcome and a feast of
showbirds takes the breath away ever year. From Budgieland we have a happy tale
about a new recruit to the fancy, plus a cautionary one about how not to
prepare for the breeding season. Plus: the Gloster canary centennial year,
breeding advice on finches and an encouragement to attend your club AGM!
