Cage & Aviary Birds is the world’s only weekly newspaper for birdkeepers. Written by bird experts for bird fans, it is packed with news, advice and comment from the avicultural scene. An essential resource for members of bird clubs and societies, it also offers an unrivalled marketplace for sellers and buyers of birds and all bird-related products, both in the British Isles and around the world.
As a weekly, it’s a uniquely comprehensive and topical source of news on all subjects that affect the birdkeeper: from legal changes and government consultations, through zoo and bird-park events, scientific research and business news, to the achievements of personalities in the hobby, as well as clubs and their members.
While it’s first and foremost a newspaper, each issue also offers a wealth of practical advice and tips from the top names in the bird world, plus opinion, controversy, species and hobbyist profiles, humour and nostalgia. Bargain-hunters eagerly await their copy to scan its paid and free adverts, and it is quite simply The Bible for show reports, club news and events.
Since 1902, Cage & Aviary Birds has consistently been the first-choice publication for keen birdkeepers, whether experienced or new to the hobby.

Cage & Aviary Birds

20th May 2026 One of the best conservation stories of recent times in Britain concerns the chough, that delightful cliff-haunting corvid. This week we trace its resurgence that’s been enabled by expert birdkeepers breeding and releasing choughs. And they’ve happily recolonised old haunts where they hadn’t been seen for decades, even centuries. We also have advice and updates on canaries, parrots and waterbirds (and DEFRA!). More unusually we consult an 18th-century book on the subject of bird diet (fascinating!) and get some very 21st-century advice on how birdkeepers can use AI software. Plus all the expected regulars.
