Looks like the aviaries in the local parks are disappearing: http://menmedia.co.uk/macclesfieldexpress/news/s/1426566_park-birds-homeless-as-budget-cuts-bite Where is the local Caged Bird Society, when you need them??
Real shame that if it go's, I remember always visiting that when I was a kid and thats at least 30years ago!
I won't miss them. I found (find) the whole keeping birds in captivity thing rather disturbing, especally when they are so limited in the space in which to fly. The idea of a caged birds society is really creepy. What sort of person would do that as a hobby?
