queensland (australia) state bird fair

Hi All

FYI - the Qld State Bird Fair run by the Parrot Society is on next Saturday. Below is a link to a flyer about it.

I've been twice before. What I liked about it is that there are lots of birds there - they also have a display of lots of rare native Australian birds which is quite cool. The first time I went I was really impressed with the sales table - lots of really great bird toys, bird food, etc. at really cheap prices. Last year I wasn't as impressed.

If you're wanting to buy an IRN, they have breeders there selling birds although I've never purchased from them myself and every breeder has to have their birds undergo health checks in order to have a stall there.

I probably won't make it along next week as it's my hubby's birthday but it should be a great day!

Maybe next year we could organise a meetup for South-East Qld IRN forum people. What do you think?

Last year I got there for the opening of the fair and there were some people who were queuing with their companion parrot on their shoulder! My birds would be completely freaked out if I tried that! It's quite a spectacle of a day.
