The History behind my Hobby
The Beginning:
I started with
Seagull-finch in 1973. Our
daugther had a couple of Weaver-finchs in the drawing-room, but they
made a mess, and that was the beginning to my Hobby. with a little
Birdhouse and Aviary in the Garden.
The Year after I join Holbaek Bird Council, and began to show my birds,
which in the meantime had been increased with Ricebirds, Gouldian
Finchs and Chestnut-Breastet Manniken.
Birds:
Up to
today my Birdhouse has been increased
several times, and the aviaries have been covered with roof, so they
can make protection against the weather.
Now I have circa 200 birds of different Australian Parakeets and
Mannikins.
I have Chinese Quails at the bottum of the Aviaries.
Bird Councils:
I still am a member
of Holbaek Bird Council and now also
a
member of the Danish Bird Council, which is the main organization
for Bird Councils in Denmark.
Show:
I have, as I told,
been showing my Birds
since 1974, and I have got a good deal of rewards through the Years.
To show ones Birds give a fine contact to other people with Birds and
it tells me whether my breedingprogram has been a success or not !
Breeding:
In particular it is the Gouldian Finch, who has my big
interest as regards breed, but my other Birds give me of
course great pleasure too.
