his is the thirty-third 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 18 exhibiting clubs who support the event and work so hard on the Saturday to set the show up and then accepting all the birds that are entered and caring for them whilst they are at the event.

To run the National Exhibition we have built strong links with the 18 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.
