Just a quick post to say hello. I've recently started keeping finches (I kept Budgies and Cockatiels in my youth).

I have a handful of Zebra Finches, a pair of Gouldian Finches, a pair of Painted Finches, a pair of Plum-headed Finches and a pair of Green Singers. All apart from the Zebras are in an aviary (the Zebras are in two large cages). Currently looking at building another few aviaries...

Thank-you all for the kind welcome. I have grand plans for a two section planted aviary (one section dedicated to the Zebras) with large flight area but we'll see how I go.

As a side note I am also a keen birder and keep an eye on some local wild finch populations (Red-eared Firetail and the introduced Red-browed Finch). My travels north for work have meant I have seen plenty of Zebra Finch, Star Finch and Painted Finch in the wild as well.

Cheers,
Greg
