Welcome to
the Budgerigar Society of NSW Inc - Canberra Branch Inc website.
Our small club breeds and exhibits budgerigars.
Dr Rob Marshall's visit to Canberra in April 2008.
We conduct an
Annual Show in March and two Young Bird Shows in October each year.
We also assist the running of the Southern Cup and we field a team
in the State Team Challenge.
The
Canberra 2008 Annual Show was run on Sunday 16 March. The show
attracted a very high standard of birds and over 400 entries.
2008 Canberra Show results
The Canberra branch thanks all exhibitors, visitors, and the judges, for making these shows an outstanding success.
 
Special congratulations go to Wendy McGlynn for winning
Grand Champion from Intermediate. Also thanks to Ann Hand for her
magnificent picture and congratulations to John and Gail Smithers
for winning the painting.
Our
monthly meetings conduct the business of the Branch. We hold a
table show at each meeting in a friendly social atmosphere. Newer
members judge the birds mentored by a senior member. The results
are less important than the experience gained by all
involved.
After the table show we conduct a discussion on a topic
chosen by the members. Occasionally this involves a visiting expert
in a field relating to the care of budgerigars.
We
seek to promote the best interests of the budgerigar in the home,
the aviary and in the wild.
Please take some time to look around. I am sure that you
will enjoy the experience. Please use the menu at the top and
on the left to navigate. The 'Shows' tab for instance will give a
lot more about our major shows with plenty of pictures of the
winners and their owners.
