HOME (last updated April 2008)

Welcome to the Budgerigar Society of NSW Inc - Canberra Branch Inc website. Our small club breeds and exhibits budgerigars.

Dr Rob Marshall 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.

The Canberra branch thanks all exhibitors, visitors, and the judges, for making these shows an outstanding success.

Grand ChampionAnn Hand

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.
