Behind the scenes at the 2019 Bird Show

This year’s Topflite New Zealand National Bird Show in Hamilton was an amazing event for all involved. But don’t just take our word for it – check out this cool video for a look at what goes into making a ‘good bird a great bird’.

We put together this video over the course of the event to show all the love and attention that goes into raising happy, confident and beautiful aviary birds.

If you are interested in getting involved with raising birds we suggest clicking here to find a local bird club. There are dozens spread across the country so chances are there’s one close to you. These clubs are great for sharing information on how to start breeding and caring for birds. We look forward to seeing you at the big 2020 event!
