TWO HUGE SHOWS IN NC!!! 2009

In 2009, I am very excited that I will be involved with two different national shows. The first is in May (Memorial Day weekend) and will be the National Cockatiel Society Specialty Show. This year, RDCBS (Raleigh Durham Caged Bird Society) will be hosting the show and I have volunteered to be the delegate for the RDCBS show for the 8th year in a row. The Specialty Show is the NCS's own national show and has special awards and points awarded to those lucky few who make it on the top bench. The second show is the All American Show sponsored by Sandhills Budgerigar Society. I am a member of that society and will be working on the website during the next couple of weeks. The show will be held in Fayetteville, NC in September of this year and I will be posting more information about both shows as they get closer to fruition.

On to Phoenix, AZ....!

K&L Aviary puts up youngster at the Nationals

Getting on the National Bench is difficult enough but we were very fortunate to have done it this year with a young cockatiel. At only 10 months of age, our cinnamon cock is well on his way to becoming a grandchampion. We are so proud of our breedings for this year. Many have yet to see the show bench as we carefully have waited to show our birds at the peak of their beauty. We thank Josh Maple for seeing the beauty in this young bird. He's got a wonderful head and good length, we know he'll soon be in the nest box making the next best babies of 2010!
