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. ---------------------------------------------- Paid for app downloads include one issue of the user’s choice.

How slow is it? I suspect I could board a plane, fly to Brazil, pluck my coffee beans, fly back to the states, brew my coffee, pour my cup, sit down, pick up this sorry excuse for a magazine, and maybe -- maybe -- pages 1 through 3 will have downloaded successfully. I gave up. Obscene level of incompetence here, period. ### 4/5 — Gerry. *2013-05-28, version 4.9.10* An excellent publication that keeps me up to date. ### 3/5 — Crashing on the iPhone *2013-01-02, version 4.1.8* For some reason this will no longer work on my iPhone 5 running the latest software, it works on my iPad fine so it's not a major problem but sometimes when I'm out and all I have on me is my phone I'd like to be able to read it seeing as I have paid for my subscription. Deleting it and re-installing it doesn't work either so I welcome any ideas?? ## Frequently asked questions about Cage & Aviary Birds ### What is Cage & Aviary Birds?
