FOOTNOTE: Within the May Edition of this Magazine, this article outlined the achievement of Andre Ozoux in gaining the Grand Champion and Reserve Grand Champion at this year Royal Easter Show with two outstanding birds; Well, both these birds dropped their tails, thus rendering them unable to compete for Club and State Selection. There always the 2020 Nationals, which will be held in Bendigo , Victoria.

Now that the National selection process and the National Championships are over for another year; most breeders will be getting down to breeding, endeavouring to produce next year birds in the hope of gaining selection in the State Team and gaining a trip to the Bendigo Nationals.
