OUR WORLD & Wild Bird Wednesday


Remember my New Holland Honeyeaters?


Well, we had a massive windstorm recently that, apart from 
crashing a great old weeping willow across the gateway to the 
main farmhouse, smashed two thirds of the all year round food
source of our honeyeaters and left our 17,000 gallon water tank
exposed to sight.


On the other hand, it did make it a little easier to get a shot of the 
muscle man of honeyeaters, the Wattlebird. This chap terrorises 
cats as well as all the other honeyeaters whose territory this is.

Over the last five years the wattlebird population has 
increased so dramatically that their rather unpleasant screech
rings out anywhere you go.
