On The Perch 

Get ready to experience a Friday night like no other! The Budgerigar Council of Tasmania (BCT) proudly presents “On The Perch,” an electrifying first in Australian budgerigars. This event is part of the exclusive Meet and Greet on May 24th at the 48th Annual ANBC Show hosted by the BCT, and it’s your ticket to the insider’s world of these charming creatures.

For the first time ever, “On The Perch” brings together a star-studded panel featuring ANBC’s very own Peter Thurn, Media Commentator Nic Hayes, and the ABC’s Kim Napier. They’ll be diving into the delightful and often surprising world of budgerigars, reflecting on the year’s most memorable moments and sharing uproarious stories that promise to keep you entertained.

Prepare for groundbreaking interviews with top fanciers, live and direct in this pioneering broadcast by the BCT. It’s more than just talk—it’s an interactive, engaging, and thoroughly entertaining peek behind the curtain of the budgerigar community.
