I stumbled on this site when I was looking for general information on magpies. I've loved birds for the past 20 years and although I'm over the aviaries now - have an old lorikeet of 20 and a cockatiel of the same age still surviving.
My main pleasure these days is watching the native birds and although a lot of people don't recommend it - I do feed some of my favourite meat eaters a little lean mince.
I've done a little breeding of budgies and lovebirds - but more rescue in the fact that for many years lots of unwanted and sick birds were dumped on my doorstep. I learnt to nurse many of them back to health.
All birds are beautiful as far as I'm concerned and most are very intelligent.
