his is the twenty-sixth edition of Bird Scene our e-magazine which is proving very successful.
For those who know its format I apologise but for new readers this publication is produced to allow us to promote both our Conservation projects that have interest around the world and give publicity to The National Exhibition that is so strongly supported by the 19 exhibiting clubs who support the event. I am certain that this edition of Bird Scene will give readers the same level of quality and interest as the first which went ‘live’ on Monday 22nd August 2010. Over these fifty-four months we have now produced 27 issues of Bird Scene. This edition will confirm the areas that we will continue to cover in future publications. Our intention right from the start was to publish this e-magazine every other month and we have fairly easily achieved this goal. By fixing the date of Issue 28 now you will know when to access our website for the latest edition. At this point it is appropriate to thank our Trade advertisers who so generously support us, you will see their advertisements in this e-magazine and without their

assistance it is unlikely that Bird Scene would have been produced. Our intention is to use Bird Scene to promote and raise donations for our Conservation activities around the world there are donation points on pages 33 & 41where you can pledge money to a particular project. Additionally Bird Scene raises awareness of The National Exhibition which was held at Stafford County Showground on Sunday 11th of October. To run the National Exhibition we have built strong links with the 19 clubs who support the event and organise the entries and judges for the Show. These clubs are specialist societies run by bird enthusiasts the vast majority of whom are actively associated with local cage bird societies. These local clubs make a valuable contribution to the UK bird scene and allow new comers to this fascinating hobby a place local to themselves to meet other enthusiasts. In this edition we are featuring The National Exhibition with a pictorial supported with the results of The Old Varieties Canary Association. The National Exhibition is kindly sponsored
