World Beating Path to Door of Bird Paradise
Vancouver resident Charles BE Jones keeps an aviary in his backyard with 50 canaries and hundreds of small birds. Visitors hear the orchestra before they see the birds as Robins, sparrows, pheasants, and Australian species flock around Mr. Jones and his three sons. Birds perform playful acts, peck at lips for peanuts, and perch on noses, while the Lady Amherst pheasant readily takes food from a hand. Mr. Jones, born in England, began this passion in 1930 and now houses a unique, fearless bird collection for neighbors and visitors.
