Wyandotte National 2009 - Albury

Appologies to those who love the silver/gold lace, white, black, blue etc but I mostly snapped my favorites since I was sure the BYP contingent would more than adequately cover the rest.

We had an excellent time at the show, enjoying the birds and putting faces to names. It was good to see colours you don't often see as well as some nice birds among the more prevalent colours as well. I was very happy to see Std Partridge there (no, not mine - not with a 2 month old baby anyway LOL) as well as the buff laces. I was very tempted by their being in the auction but in the end we decided to save our pennies and enjoy Albury and catching up with BB, Judy and gang in the evening.

I also got my hot little hands on a copy of the new Wyandotte colour guide and think it's an excellent publication the club should be well proud of, as well as a bunch of other Wyandotte merchandise!

The trophy table - the framed illustrations were especially nice!
