Acknowledgements and Best Wishes for the New Year 2007!

As the festive season approaches, we would like to extend our very best wishes to you for the New Year.

A year ago, we decided to launch a revamped version of the ‘Carduelan’s breeder’ website ’ (Carduelan’s breeder), and to continue sharing our passion for finches, and now also for cardinals.

We’re about to reach 30,000 visits after a year online – what a wonderful Christmas present.

Thank you!

Thank you to all the photographers who agreed to publish their photos on our website.

Thank you also for your messages in the guestbook – please keep them coming, as they’re a great source of encouragement!

Thank you for your many emails; we try to make ourselves available to answer your questions and address your enquiries within a reasonable timeframe, as birdwatching is a hobby for us and we have to manage our family and work commitments alongside it.

Finally, thank you to all the enthusiasts from around the world who visit our website. Over the past year, we have recorded visits from the following countries:

France, Belgium, Italy, Morocco, Spain, Greece, Portugal, Germany, Brazil, Turkey, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Canada, Hungary, Russia, Romania, the Czech Republic, Lebanon, Denmark, Luxembourg, Austria, the United Kingdom, Croatia, Israel, Poland, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Saudi Arabia, Sweden, Yugoslavia, Azerbaijan, India, Australia, the Slovak Republic, Thailand, Uruguay, Ukraine, Cyprus, Argentina, China, Lithuania, Slovenia, Andorra, Taiwan, Colombia, the United States, Kazakhstan, Japan, Samoa, Finland, New Caledonia, the United Arab Emirates, Colombia, Pakistan, Cyprus, New Zealand, Peru, Malaysia, Mexico, Norway, French Polynesia, Ireland, Chile, Ghana, Bulgaria, Venezuela, Costa Rica, Mexico, Luxembourg, Malta, the Republic of Singapore, Indonesia, the Principality of Monaco, Sudan, Egypt, Syria, Tuvalu, Côte d’Ivoire, Algeria, Macedonia, the Dominican Republic, Finland, South Africa, India…
