At the Poultry Show

Variety is the keynote for the average visitor to the Poultry Show. There are big birds, small birds, black birds, white birds, and coloured birds. There are some odd birds, some beautiful birds, and some which might be called the comedians of the show.

On these pages we present a selection from this month's annual show of the Poverty Bay Poultry, Pigeon and Cage Bird Association.
