Hi,

It's been a cold spring, hasn't it? Over here in SA, it feels like the birds have only just started breeding in the last few weeks; and things look even worse over in the eastern states. Fingers crossed the warm weather is finally here to stay!

It's been great to see COVID restrictions finally starting to lift again, so it can't be long until bird sales and interstate trading of birds kicks off again. Fingers crossed this Omicron variant doesn't take us right back where we started though.

Finally, this will be the last newsletter of 2021. On behalf of the Aussie Finch Forum team I'd like to wish all our members are pleasant Christmas and prosperous New Year. We look forward to seeing you on the forum again soon.

New forum topics in November

What finches are suited to Tasmania's climate?

How do I introduce egg food to Gouldians?

How much live food is needed?

Is soaked or sprouted seed better?

Bird Sale Calendar
