At least today he perched but still wouldn't relax. He has great lift above the "eyebrows" even though not relaxed..........and he's showy to boot Oh thank you Kaz, I am glad you can see that because he is normally a show off. You can see his length too. He is a really big baby. I really didn't even want to touch him today, I just wanted him to relax and put his weight back on that he lost yesterday. Link to comment

It's a big long bird that has a nice line and releases the feather up and forward with a roll and ends up very wide from the front. A really super bird.

Thanks Dan but boy is is a hard bird to train in the cage, being trying to get a good photo for the Budgie News but he is so over the whole thing, he normally blows and shows off all the time but not since Sunday, I think he needs to be left alone for a few days.

I said well Thank you everyone one, I am over the moon with my wins I never expected my birds to get 1st place let alone Best bird in Show BUT guess what I have put the hard work in and the dedication and I believe I deserved these awards Especially after my rotten year I have had, loosing over ninety little chicks etc. Thank you again and laughed my head off.

For those that don't know, this is one of the biggest things you can win on the Victorian Show Calendar in the year! Thanks Daryl for the Victorian Shields a plug, gee I am getting a swelled head here No seriously I am really over the moon about my wins, never in my wildest dreams did I ever expect to win Best Bird In Show at any Victorian Shield or to get 2 first out of the only 2 birds I took. The only down side is I think I have the points to go into open now and that makes me very nervous. Pretty good though that I only spent not even one year in Intermediate and I have only shown at 3 shows all year. Riverina, Kyabram and the Unbroken Cap Shield. On another note... Still trying to get a photo of him for the budgie news. Leaving him alone today, Rod told me last night I have a few more days yet before the dead line, so that's good. Got to make the little fella happy. He was in the holding cage this morning blowing and showing off. So I think he just needs to settle for a couple of days and then he will be right again.

So here is my sky who won the blue class and best bird in show at the unbroken cap shield The light green spangle, 1st in teh normal spangle, not a good photo at all but this is his sister, she couldn't go to the shield because she has pin feathers from been plucked by mum on the back of the head Edited November 2, 2011 by Finnie Link to comment
