Fred Hopkins

Fred Hopkins

Fred Hopkins was born in 1903, son of Thomas Egbert Hopkins and Alice Copus. He was an avid aviculturist, owning such exotic birds as an Australian spinebill, a yellow-tufted woodpecker, and a black-billed toucan. At the Crystal Palace Cage Bird Show in 1936, Hopkins displayed a collection of birds self-valued at over £18,000. This earned him significant media attention, although many newspapers pointed out that his collection was, in all likelihood, worth a lot less than he claimed. In 1927 he married Audrey Mildred Sainsbury; they would remain together until his death in 1980.
