Frank Cachia
There is a charm to Frank’s writing style that comes of English not being his first language and he makes no pretence of having any formal scientific training so don’t expect technical jargon. The advice he offers, however, aligns neatly with current academic thinking regarding ’force-free’ training methods and the information he gives regarding care and diet is sound. While not everyone will agree with all of his suggestions, I’m sure old hands and new comers to the world of bird keeping alike will enjoy his stories and learn from them as they visit Frank, in his home, ’Living with a Budgerigar’.Dr Pat Macwhirter, BVSc (Hons), PhD, FACVScBurwood Bird and Animal HospitalMelbourne, AustraliaAuthor Bio:At age 15, Frank Cachia came to Australia from Malta.
