You can see it here. Here are screenshots of the top five: My thanks to Andy for his good work. Enjoy the […]... Read More

This year’s Amigo Show returned to Archena, which brought back happy memories of my introduction to the Amigos and their fascination with the Lizard canary back in 2018. The show has gone from strength to strength with around 550 entries this year, including the London Fancies. Alas family commitments prevented me from judging this year, […]... Read More

Yet again, the National Exhibition raised the curtain on the Lizard canary show season. The 2026 edition was the first to be organised under the new APHA regulations, but things went smoothly and around 80 birds awaited me for judging.

I’ve been to bird shows in all sorts of venues: great exhibition centres, sports halls, village halls, pubs and marquees, but the Club Amigos del Canario Lizard show was the first time I’ve ever seen canaries exhibited at a dance hall. The 2025 edition was held at an hotel complex in La Carlota near […]... Read More

Lizard canaries at the 2025 National Exhibition

This was my first visit to the National since 2022; a welcome opportunity to assess the 2025 crop of Lizard canaries. I was struck by the evenness of the overall standard, novices included, and there were several causes for optimism. 103 Lizards had been entered, an excellent number for such an early show. More importantly, […]... Read More

The LCA Classic 2024

Posted on 10/11/2024 by Huw Evans 6 Comments

This year’s LCA Classic brought a few changes. I was judging rather than showing; and there was a new timetable aimed at enabling exhibitors to view the birds much earlier than in recent years. I can’t speak for my judging, but the latter was a big success. Some things didn’t change though: the friendly atmosphere, […]... Read More
