Anybody else going?

Spoke to David Myers, & he told me Don Burke will be opening with Mike, will also be a talk by Russel Kingston, & Dr Stacey Giles will be doing a similar display to what he did at the convention, so should be good.

I have been co opted again this year as a guide and at least one other forum member as well.
For those that have not been before there is a limit of 125 people
The 125 are divided into 5 groups of 25 and each group is rotated through the 4 seperate sections of the breeding
facility and the 5th section is where the lecture/talks are held.
There is no other facility like this one in Australia and it is a rare chance to visit Mike and Elisabeth Fidlers property
believe me the location is spectacular.
On top of the 5 sections there is plenty of time to mix with other people including a large contingent of that very very active Hunter Branch of the Finch club of NSW
So I would pencil it in as it is very well worth it.
Also the following day most attend the big bird sale close by
And unfortunately I will be too busy to use a camera Di

As long as those members who are going take their cameras, and more importantly remember to use them

Yeah there are plenty around, these two are reasonably close... http://www.big4lakemacquarie.com.au http://www.budgewoihp.com.au. If you like camping Mike's facility is right a the bottom of the Watagan Mountains, so there is state forest and national park where you can camp.
