HISTORY
The ASA is one of the oldest Avicultural Societies in Australia, having formed in 1940.
The Gippsland Branch of the ASA had its inaugural meeting in 1955.
Catering for all Australian and Foreign Birds, with the exception of Racing Pigeons and Poultry.
The Branch is made up of members from all walks of life from all over Gippsland.
CLUB MEETINGS
The Gippsland Branch meets on the 3rd Sunday of every month, except December. In December we have a
meeting and a Christmas Lunch at a pre determined location.
Our Monthly meetings start at 11.30 a.m. at a different members address every month. We start the day by looking at
the hosts aviaries, followed by our monthly meeting and then a BBQ lunch. These meeting are extremely popular as
you get to see a different aviary complex every month and discuss how each member utilizes his or her aviaries.
We have a raffle every month with excellent prizes. Visitors are always welcome.
OTHER INFO
The ASA Gippsland Branch has a Facebook Page and we also publish a monthly newsletter.
Both are full of information and photos to keep our members updated and contain articles about the previous meeting, including interesting articles written by members. This service is free for all members and all members are asked to participate, with anecdotes, stories of their aviaries, bird pictures, travel and any other article to keep the newsletter informative and interesting.
Each year in the Month of July we host a Bird Expo in Warragul. Here you can buy and sell birds as well as other related products.
There is no need to be a Member to attend or sell birds at the Expo.
Please have a look around the site and why not come along to a meeting. We would love to meet you.
This is a good way to show off your aviaries, and birds, to other members, and become well known in
"The Gippsland" part of Bird Keeping
