It has been an interesting year for Parrots magazine, as we have seen the number of our Facebook fans now topping 3000 and many new subscribers coming on board. It is gratifying to see so many parrot owners are providing the best care for their birds.

We have covered some amazing stories demonstrating the sheer dedication of owners and the amazing tasks they have undertaken.  Social media has played a significant role in helping owners to communicate with each other, which has led to a lot of information and advice being shared.

Our new show next year - Think Parrots 2012 - has already brought together some amazing 'parrot' people and I hope it will also provide much enjoyment and interest on the day (20th May).

So with Christmas Day not that many hours away, I would like to wish all our readers, Facebook fans and contributors, a really great Christmas and many more happy years to enjoy with our birds.
