Talking ~*Hi there from Australia*~

Hi there, I would like to introduce myself I live in NSW Australia. We have all sorts of wild birds visit our garden every day! From King parrots to Rosellas! So it is wonderful if you are a bird lover! I have owned and bred Finches for many years, both in a large flight aviary and breeding cages. My main love is Gouldian Finches, I only have two at the moment Pinky & Penny in a cage. And I have eight Bengalese finches in my aviary. I use my Bengalese to hatch and raise my Gouldian babies. I also have bred Zebra,Star Finch, lots of Waxbills and Weavers.............
This is a wonderful bird site and I hope to learn lots of new things here...

All the best,

Gouldie

Hi there Gouldie, there are other Aussies about too. I have a red-collared loikeet and there are plenty of wild birds about also being in NSW. Welcome :) Pinky and Penny are VERY pretty!

i wish we had wild parrots in usa, but here in utah we just have pidgeons, sparrows, guls, robins, and such. the only hook bill types are preditors, such as eagles, hawks, condors, and falcons. the preditors dont come to the city much, but they sure are a treat to see when one comes around and circles above.
