Aussie Finch Forum

Saturday 20th April 2013
St Ives Showground
Douglas Pickering Pavilion
450 Mona Vale Road St Ives

I'll be there

And there'll be a few other forum members as well I think

Helped take the entries last night.
760 exibits including 200 finches. Special display of bengalese(over50) with exhibitors coming from interstate.
Try and get along and say hello.
Weaver

I have heard of 5 forum members coming at least.
Make your self known. Just ask for Bob and I will try and get everyone together.

I hope to be there too - if I can bring myself to get up that early on what is promising to be a cold, wet, windy Saturday!

Exhibitors should be sure to bring some wind-proofing for their cages (and selves), just in case, as I think the pavilion is not exactly draught-proof.

It was good to meet Weaver who was very busy helping run the show and organising the prizes at the end of the day.

There was a great turnout of canaries and finches. I heard there was over 750 birds. I will post some canary photos later. Sorry no finches.

I ended up winning Champion and Reseve Champion Lizard Canary, and 3 Specials for my Border Fancy Canaries - Best Open Yellow Hen, Best Open Buff Hen and Best White Hen. A very good day.

Thanks Weaver for the glass seed hoppers as well. All scrubbed up this morning and looking great.

Very interested to see any photos of the better Gloster Canaries.
