About Me

crested-canary-champion
As a boy, I kept Zebra Finches and Border Canaries but after a break from bird-keeping of almost 25 years, I came back to this wonderful hobby in 1998. It was a visit to the National Exhibition in 1997 that inspired my fascination with the Crested Canary; this was the breed I was going to keep. You can get to know more about me here.
