Decoding our birds – how do we define a management regime for each species?
Speaker: Mike Fidler
Venue: Morningside Hall, corner Thynne Road and Wynnum Road, Morningside.
Date: 1 November 2024
Time: 6:30pm for 7:30pm start.
Renowned aviculturist, conservationist and Patron of QFS, Mike Fidler, will be our speaker for the AGM meeting in November and we are very pleased to have him back.
Mike established a worldwide reputation for his attention to detail and his constant experimenting for a better way as a Gouldian breeder in England, before moving to Australia to pursue his passion for the conservation of the wild Gouldian. He, and his wife Elisabeth, established the Save the Gouldian Fund and they have been the driving force behind an extensive research and on-ground conservation program.
At his magnificent breeding complex in the Watagan range north of Sydney, Mike seeks to understand the key to breeding success for all the species he works with and in this talk he will focus on the many aspects of defining a management regime tailored to particular species. This talk was given at the Finches ’22 Convention and is not to be missed as Mike will provide an information packed evening of value to all aviculturists. It will give you a taste of what you might hear at Finches ’25!
