WELCOME TO THE CFZ BLOG NETWORK: COME AND JOIN THE FUN

Half a century ago, Belgian Zoologist Bernard Heuvelmans first codified cryptozoology in his book On the Track of Unknown Animals.

The Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ) are still on the track, and have been since 1992. But as if chasing unknown animals wasn't enough, we are involved in education, conservation, and good old-fashioned natural history! We already have three journals, the largest cryptozoological publishing house in the world, CFZtv, and the largest cryptozoological conference in the English-speaking world, but in January 2009 someone suggested that we started a daily online magazine! The CFZ bloggo is a collaborative effort by a coalition of members, friends, and supporters of the CFZ, and covers all the subjects with which we deal, with a smattering of music, high strangeness and surreal humour to make up the mix.

It is edited by CFZ Director Jon Downes, and subbed by the lovely Lizzy Bitakara'mire (formerly Clancy), scourge of improper syntax. The daily newsblog is edited by Corinna Downes, head administratrix of the CFZ, and the indexing is done by Lee Canty and Kathy Imbriani. There is regular news from the CFZ Mystery Cat study group, and regular fortean bird news from 'The Watcher of the Skies'. Regular bloggers include Dr Karl Shuker, Dale Drinnon, Richard Muirhead and Richard Freeman.The CFZ bloggo is updated daily, and there's nothing quite like it anywhere else. Come and join us...

MIDLANDS CHARITY AUCTION

Two weeks to go to the Midland Charity Auction on Sunday 6th December in Redditch, Worcestershire.

The online page is set up & from now on breeders will start sending in lists of fish they will be bringing. These lists don't show all that is going to be there but a snapshot of some fish you will see.

See http://www.ta-aquaculture.co.uk/ & click the yellow box top left to access the page.

Those bringing fish are missing out by not sending your list in as you get free advertisement for your species online. Buyers have been known to come specially to buy certain species from this list.

I know from going to shows this year many breeders & collectors will be bringing some new fish.
It's not just Killifish & Livebearers. Last year we had new microrasbora sp etc. This year the ellusive Poecilocharax weitzmanni tetra will be there. This is the species with the huge dorsal fin.

A Corydoras breeder has also requested an auction letter.

Many breeders have booked auction letters. You don't have to - just turn up on the day & you will get a letter. To book a letter online is easy. Just e-mail me at timaddis@killifish.force9.co.uk & request a letter. Then download the booking in forms online from the webpage. This saves the last minute panic & writing it out after a long car journey.
