CRYSTAL P.VLACE BIllD SHOW. 



"We have mncli pleasure in again recording the annual exhibition of 

 Canaries and Britisli ami foreign birds at the Crystal Palace, -whicli 

 opened on Saturday last, and will continue until l-'riday. The SIiow 

 is being held in the new tropical portion of the Palace ; hut we question 

 whether it would not have been advisable to have had it in the room 

 in which it took place last year, as we fear that many of the little pets 

 will return to their oivners somewhat the worse for theii" temporary 

 change of residence. 



The show of Cauarks is quite up to the standard of prerioua shows, 

 the most choice amongst which are the Loudon l''ancy and the Nor- 

 wich and Jomiue London Fancy, as well as the Lizards. The Gold- 

 linch and Linnet Mules are most exquisitely beautiful and fine. 



Among the British birds there are some most beautiful representa- 

 tives of the Bullfinch and Goldfinch, and also of our Song Thrush ; 

 aud in the Variety class are noticeable some extraordinai-y and most 

 novel examxdes of the freaks of Nature, consisting of a most deli- 

 cately coloured Bullfinch, a Goldfinch perfectly white, with the excep- 

 tion of a tinge of yellow on the wings and pink marking over the beak, 

 and a cream-coloured Lark, aud a white Sparrow. 



The Forei'fii hij-ds are not so well represented this year. There are 

 some very beautiful Parrots, Cockatoos, and Paroquets. There is 

 also a pair of Java Sparrows pure white, belonging to Mr. Hawkins, 

 which attracted much attention. "SYe likewise observed two most ex- 

 quisite specimens of the Leadbeater Coclcatoo, which deservedly ob- 

 tained a special prize. The King Parrots and Paroquets are objects 

 of great attraction, as also a covey of Partridges, exhibited by Mr. 

 Stevens, of Netley Abbey, which was awarded a special prize. 

 The following is the list of awards : —
