The Canary Council began its life in 1984 as an off-shoot of the National Council for Aviculture. Delegates from the ten canary sections (Border, Irish Fancy, Lizard, Blue Lizard, Norwich, Rare and Old Varieties Yorkshire, and Hosos) now meet at least twice a year to discuss and act upon matters appertaining to the canary fancy and aviculture as a whole. The Canary Council’s aims and objectives are:
To encourage the keeping, breeding, exhibition/contest and study of all recognised breeds of domestic canary throughout Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
H To affiliate to and uphold the rules and objectives of the National Council for Aviculture (NCA). H To make representations, either directly or through the NCA to statutory bodies, national organisations and government departments and other on matters appertaining to the Canary Fancy.
H To send representatives to the meetings of, and otherwise participate in, the activities of the NCA. H To encourage governing bodies of each variety domestic canary to become members of the Canary Council. H To organise shows, events, campaigns, promotions or other such activities in the interests of the canary fancy. H To do anything else the Canary Council considers appropriate and reasonable to achieve its objectives.

Canaries Open Show
7. To improve the Show experience for visitors the Council of The Parrot Society would like to erect some display aviaries in the Bingley Hall, where bird sales take place and wondered if clubs could ask their members if they could supply some birds for these aviaries. However there were concerns about such a project.
8. Lifting Time: Although Lifting Time will continue to be from 3.30 pm at the end of the Show once the birds in the Argyle Centre have all been claimed by exhibitors the exit doors to the Argyle Centre will be opened. This will hopefully mean that these exhibitors will be ‘out of the way’ by the time the Sandylands Centre doors are opened.
This change will be trialled for this 2019 show and the situation will be reviewed at this meeting next year.
9. The Parrot Society will again supply free tea, coffee and biscuits in the Argyle Centre when the staging is being erected on the Saturday and on the Sunday when birds are being checked in.
Meeting closed at 4.00pm
The National Exhibition is organised by 18 bird clubs who have a strong interest in exhibiting cage birds. The exhibition of birds has been an interesting hobby for many bird enthusiasts over very many years. Over these years The National Exhibition has been held at a variety of
