The German author Norbert E. W. Schramm has kept and bred a wide variety of bird species since his earliest youth.
Since 1974 he has been a member of a traditional Dresden breeders' association and began breeding colour and posture canaries.
With the experimental breeding of many canary breeds and carduelid species he acquired extensive specialist knowledge.
His publications on the colouring of birds and the scientific presentation of canary colours developed from them made him well-known among experts.
