Clip description

Mark travels to the Devonport Poultry Show where he meets up with other ‘poultry fanciers’.

Curator’s notes

In this clip we get to hear about Mark’s depression, in voice-over, as he travels to Tasmania in the hope of finding his rare birds.

First stop is the Devonport Poultry Show where we meet other people who share Mark’s passion. Mark is no longer the outsider. This is his tribe … the rare breed of Australian rural people who also love their chooks and they help give us a greater understanding of Mark’s world.
