INTRODUCT T


his is now the fifth edition of Bird Scene, how quickly ten months can pass when you are working on a new project – the first FREE on- line bird magazine produced in the UK. At 48 pages this is quite a big read! Every time we post the Parrot Society magazine I cringe at the cost and after the 30th April when postal costs increase further the distribution expenses will be even higher. How much longer bird clubs will be able to afford to mail magazines to their members must be a great worry to many club officials. An e-magazine does not have this problem, or that of the cost of colour printing. As a


result of increases to the costs of both postage and printing I am really pleased that we decided to produce Bird Scene as a FREE e-magazine. We have learnt a great deal over the past ten months about this way of communicating with bird


enthusiasts and I


am sure that this


knowledge


will become more and more valuable as we see further increases in costs to paper magazines. Regular readers will know that Bird Scene as been produced to publicise The National Exhibition held each year at our October Sale Day/ Show and to promote our Conservation efforts for threatened parrots
