Our History
Nests created by champions in ornithology
It all started with a shared passion between father and son, a passion that led us to compete, to learn, to innovate… and to create. Since we won our first gold medal in a world championship in Hasselt (Belgium) in 2008, we have not stopped growing. More than 60 international medals later, we continue with the same enthusiasm as the first day.

Who is behind it?
Ivan Vera
Iván Vera Jiménez is the heart of Aviario Vera. A renowned Spanish breeder specializing in Gouldian Finches, he has dedicated his life to ornithology with a unique blend of rigor, sensitivity, and creative vision. His aviary, known as Aviario Vera, is a benchmark in the sector, not only for the quality of its specimens, but for its way of understanding breeding: as an art and a way of life.
From a very young age, he began to compete and stand out in the main national and international championships. In 2008, at just 18 years old, he won his first gold medal in a world championship in Hasselt (Belgium), marking the beginning of a brilliant career that today adds up to more than 60 medals in world championships.
In 2019, at the 54th Ornithological Championship of Spain, he received the trophy for the best team of male Gouldian Finches, awarded by the Spanish Club of Gouldian Finch Breeders. Recognitions like this endorse his experience, but it is his day-to-day work, his dedication, and his constant desire to improve that really distinguish him.
In addition to being a breeder, Iván is a national judge of exotic birds for the Ornithological Federation and an active promoter of the world of ornithology. Through his YouTube channel, Aviario Vera, and his social networks, he shares educational content on natural breeding, selection of specimens, and specific care, helping other breeders to grow and improve.
With Aviario Vera, Iván takes it a step further: applying everything he has learned over the years to create modern, functional accessories full of personality. Pieces that not only fulfill a function, but also represent the identity and style of each aviary.
Diego Vera
Diego Vera is much more than the origin of this passion: he is the pillar on which an entire family career dedicated to ornithology has been built. With decades of experience behind him, he has been a teacher, guide, and inseparable companion of his son Iván on this shared path between competitions, aviaries, and thousands of hours of observation and care.
A national judge of exotic birds for the Ornithological Federation, Diego has dedicated a large part of his life to the study and continuous improvement of breeding. His deep knowledge, his perseverance, and his love for birds have been key to achieving the highest international recognitions, including more than 60 medals in world championships together with Iván.
But his greatest merit goes beyond the trophies: it lies in having transmitted a legacy. An approach based on excellence, respect for each species, and commitment to innovation without losing sight of tradition.
Today, with Aviario Vera, Diego brings all his experience and criteria to shape a new way of breeding: more personalized, more conscious, more artistic. Because behind each design, each detail, there are years of lived experience, of shared passion… and of the vision of a man who started it all.
Breed with identity, design with purpose
Our philosophy
At Aviario Vera we believe that breeding is not just about caring, feeding, or reproducing: it is about understanding, observing, respecting… and also expressing oneself. That’s why we design accessories that not only fulfill a function, but also speak of who you are as a breeder.
Our philosophy is born from the experience of a lifetime among birds, from the excellence achieved in competition, and from the constant desire to improve what already exists. We believe in modernizing without losing the essence. In combining tradition with innovation. In that the detail matters.
Each product we create is designed from a deep knowledge of ornithology and from absolute respect for birds. We are not looking to manufacture in series, but to add value. Create pieces that connect with you and with your aviary. Because we know that behind every breeder there is a story. And behind every story, a unique way of breeding.
That is Aviario Vera: a new way of living ornithology. More yours. More authentic. More artistic.
