Even reading the catalog was a treat. Also, I agree: " the modern plant society evolves – from what was once a strict and formal genus-specific organization, into one where plant lovers of most any breed" get together. That's how I got to be newsletter editor for a rock garden society–and I don't have a rock garden!

HI Paul. Not much of a mystery revealed, since the term 'aviary' might be stretching it a bit. We are just converting a sunny, vacant bedroom into a 'bird room'. Currently in it, we have various cages ( nothing nice), with a dove, 6 or more canaries ( red factor and Spanish Trombetto) and a nesting pair of Cockatiels. Well, they have a nesting box but no eggs yet.

I am very select in what part I shoot images in, and in what parts you never see! Believe me – one visit and you'd understand! But thanks. Honestly, though, it's lived in. I mean, I imagine that we all have dog toys in the garden, pots left out for the winter, old tomato stakes laying around with plants still on them. Someday I may have the strength to show what the garden really looks like, but until then…. I like the peacefulness of the fantasy viewed on-line! We are not neat-niks!
