Comment by bird breeders who have ordered the book before you

“I found your works both interesting and helpful.  Thank you for your effort in writing them. Breeding Estrildid Finches provides a very clear and honest approach to keeping and breeding finches.  Full of detailed and practical information, this body of work is a necessity for not just the beginner, but  also for the experienced breeder.  23 september 2021 Jim P.

“I have now read your book over the weekend. I really like it very much! It has the two important things which I miss in other books, the breadth of topics and the provisioning of very specific details that are key to breeding estrildid finches successfully. As it is not so easy anymore to exchange with other breeders as it was in the past (many local assocations do not exist anymore), this book will be a very important source of information for me.   22 03 2021 Hjalmar K.  04416 Markkleeberg Dld.

I have no words to explain how much I love your books about this wonderful finches. Your knowledge of Estrildid Finches of the whole world is enormous. I am completely stunned to see the most, least known and rare species and subspecies of these family. I like booth of your books: Estrildid Finches in the Picture is a bible on the subject. In fact, the most comprehensive work of these finches in the world!
