Hello everybody!

Hi everyone!
I'm Jorge (George in English), from Spain, and I'm a cockatiel owner. I'm in some Spanish forums but I wanted to be here to improve my English besides learning something more about parrots and take some news to Spanish forums.
It would be very interesting for me to be corrected by you because my English is not very good and I have to pass some exams in September
Maybe tomorrow you will se some photos of my birds.

Pleased to meet all you!

Hi Jorge and welcome to Birdboard.

Please make sure you share with us what is going on in Spain in the bird keeping world too. It's always good to get an international perspective of what is happening.

English looks good so far. I am sure you will pass your English exams with high marks.

Look forward to seeing pictures of your birds.

¿Psittaculture? in Spain is a little underdeveloped in comparation with other countries, but parrot owners are increasing (not now with the crisis, but they were increasing the last years) ant it's a really good sing.

We are discovering new species which are not very introduced as pets like poicephalus (only p. senegalus and p. gulielmi are relatively common) such as p. ruppelli and also pionus and eclectus, which are getting famous now but which r not really widespread.
We are also waiting for books about cockatiels mutations because we lag a long way behind other countries and about eclectus, which are getting famous as pets but which haven't got special books...

I don't know how to explain in a little message all the Spanish psittaculture worries because I'm really new at this world, but it's going to be interesting to share information in the case it proceed.

Tell me if you don't understand me, please! hahaha

Hello Jorge and welcome. Beautiful 'Tiels you have there! Your English is very good, just a few little words misspelled here and there like "comparison". No one ever says English is easy to spell! Spanish is so much easier :)
