337.0. "NHAS meeting" by GIAENG::PULSIFER (Doug Pulsifer 235-3332, BPO1) Thu Mar 29 1990 10:32

    I attended the NHAS club meeting last night and Dr. Kilgore did a
    presentation of several case historys.  She showed Xrays from each of
    the cases and was very informative.  I have heard about her from many
    noters here, but had never met her before and was impressed. 
                                                   
    Also one of the Members (Andy) brougth his Hyancinth Macaw to the
    meeting and the Dr. removed two blood feathers to be sent out for
    surgical sexing. I talked to Andy afterwards and got to pat Blue(the
    Hyancinth) and Blue even climbed on my arm and my shoulder ! This was
    quite a thrill to me , as the only other Hycacinth I have ever seen was
    Beauregard(Boston Pet). 
        
    Our Spring auction is next month.

Lady gouldian, other red rumps, bourkes. There were quite a few small parrot cages, cuttlebones, nest boxes, etc.... Also lots of non-bird stuff Anyone who has never been should try to catch the next bird auction no matter what club puts it on. You can get good deals and have fun. Doug
