| Bird fanciers take just as serious an interest in developing individual pets with perfect "points" as do owners of highly bred cattle, horses, cats, or dogs. Judges select winners on such features as wingspread, color of feathers, shape of legs, neck, and back. This contest took place at Plymouth's Corn Exchange in November, 1933. Aviculture is especially popular in England and France. |
