I took my daughters to our first diploma show at the Dandenong Budgerigar Club (Melbourne Australia). There were around 400 birds benched. We had a fantastic day meeting lots of new people and catching up with some people from our own club. We brought along three UBC's (unbroken caps) and two young birds. My grey was the only one in his catergory but went on to get best UBC in beginner and also won the Supreme UBC for the day. Very EXCITING !!!! So we went home with heaps of prizes, the best for me were the rosettes.  Prizes  Relaxing today  |

What a wonderful day for you and the girls, Rachel. The little glass bird is gorgeous; the bottle of wine will go down a treat, the veggies can be shared (humans and budgies) and the rosettes you get to keep! Win/ win all way round! And little Mr Grey definitely looks like a winner to me too!  |

The feathered family tucked into the carrots and beetroot today and they will probably polish off the silverbeet tomorrow |
