Lots of Life in the Aviary

There is lots of life in the aviary. I'm excited about the coming months. Hopefully, I will raise a few Norwich as well. I hope to post a few picks soon. This year I have stuck with the quinoa, coucous, higgins egg food, teff, egg, buckwheat, and lintals for the soft food. I add fertile cal to the mix and they eat every little bite and feed it to the young birds. I also add a few green peas.

Canary's going to nest early this year!

I've been so surprised to have my birds ready to nest this early this year. Norwich are still not ready but I have several Northern Dutch Frills, Scots Fancy, Gloster, and so on sitting on eggs. I hope it is a good year.

Getting ready for the coming Canary Shows!

I'm trying to decide which birds I would like to show. Some show some promise. Others not so much.

Special Poem and Scripture

He will cover you with His feathers and under His wings you will find refuge. Psalm 91:4

Hope is the thing with feathers
that perches in the soul,
and sings the tune without the words,
and never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard,
and sore must be the storm
that could abash the little bird
that kept so many warm

I've heard it in the chillest land,
and on the strangest sea:
yet, never, in extremity,
it asked a crumb of me
Emily Dickinson 1861.

Still working on the site!

I'm still working to get everything in it's place. I hope you enjoy the site! More birds coming soon from my aviary.
