since 1972. While it was initially just for the fun of it, the situation

Show” for the first time. At the time I stood transfixed at the cages of
the white selfs, fascinated by their sheer beauty. By : Uwe Held (DE) 5 pages - 930 kB

popular in and around The Hague. A national sport that kept everyone busy,
even if you did not practice it yourself. All those lofts on the roofs were
defining features of the city’s skyline, and everyone had someone among
their family or friends who was involved in the hobby. By : Aviculture
