The Madeira Ornithological Association will participate in the 12th International do Sado, an exhibition organized by the Setúbal Ornithological Club. The Madeiran delegation will be composed of 23 birds from seven local breeders.
The representatives from Madeira are António Teixeira, José Baptista, José Aldónio Nóbrega, Luís Palomino, João Paulo Silva, João Fernandes and Pedro Garanito, who will travel with their birds to participate in the event.
According to the article, the increase in live animal air transport rates prevented the Madeiran delegation from being larger than planned. This situation limited the participation of the Madeira Ornithological Association in the event.
The 12th International do Sado was scheduled to open its doors from the 11th onwards, although the full closing date of the event is not mentioned in the article.
