I am sure that everyone will find this item interesting. This item is followed by a report on the breeding of the Violaceous Turaco by Geoff Bailey for all our readers that are interested in soft billed avicultural pursuits, I just love to see Turacos in large planted aviaries bouncing all around their enclosure thoroughly enjoying life, maybe one day I will build a big aviary for a pair, I would certainly ask Geoff for some advice on the idea.

Unfortunately there seems to be a spate of thefts mainly from exhibitors keeping valuable show birds, please see the advice that John Hayward gives on this serious problem. In this Issue information relating to The National Exhibition includes the minutes from the meeting with the exhibiting clubs which was held at Coventry on 11th March where we were blessed with a really sunny day and had an enjoyable hour meeting up and talking to our friends on the veranda at the front of the hotel with a drink in our hands, it was just like being on holiday!

In this edition is an article on the conservation in Colombia and Bolivia.
