Hope to see you there!
Scott Golden is presenting a program on Parrot Finches at our March 7th meeting. Scott has been raising birds for almost 40 years. He started out raising pigeons, bantam chickens and ornamental pheasants. About 25 years ago, he bought his first pair of finches, Gouldians, which soon had several clutches of chicks. From that time on, raising finches has been a great passion for him.
For the past ten years or so, Scott has focused on Parrot Finches, which are found on numerous islands throughout the Indo-Pacific. Since xxxx, he has been working very hard to establish the Peales Parrot Finch here in the US. Prior to that time, they were virtually unavailable in this country. Over the years, he has gotten a number of other aviculturalists their start in this rare species and Peales numbers are growing. Scott received the NFSS National Aviculturalist Recognition Award for his efforts in this area in xxxx and xxxx. NARA, or the National Aviculturalist Recognition Award is presented by the National Finch and Softbill Society for the development of a program of avian breeding success involving sequential generations of rare, endangered, difficult-to-breed or CITES-listed birds.
From the early xxxx's to xxxx, Scott lived in Los Angeles and, later, San Diego. Raising finches in this warm locale had some advantages. Mainly, the birds could be kept outdoors year-round. However, in xxxx he moved back to his home state of Oregon, replacing the crowds, congestion and sunshine with wide open spaces, trees and....lots of rain!
Please join us on March 7th for an overview of the various species of Parrot finches, as well as their status and propagation methods in the United States.
