Birds of a Feather

Don't know why l just happened to be lying on the ground next to the duck pen when the three geese decided to wander out! It certainly wasn't planned! l think l might have been peering under it to check out the broody duck. Anyway when these three sauntered out l hit the button and l quite liked the picture that resulted from me lying amongst the duck and the goose poop!
And on the subject of birds..meet the newest recruit of the Anti Eagle Task Force. Isn't he magnificent! He is a pure bred $8.00 plastic resin garden ornament! Fabulous! He stands at over a foot high and with his huge yellow eyes and pointy beak l think he will give any passing Wedge Tail Eagle the need for a second glance before he lands at OUR place! At the moment he is just inside the door of the barn on the table and every time l go in there he makes me jump! He looks like a huge cat sitting in the corner! l think l will nail him to the top of the Chook Pen where he can keep an eye on the hens!
And this just had to go on! This is Molly , my sister's little dog, No words needed. She was just happy!

  1. Sorry to disappoint you but we've had one of these scary monsters ( the owl not your sister's dog) perched on the roof of the local church for quite a while now and it's always surrounded by scores of pigeons so I don't think a wedge-tailed eagle is going to be worried a bit by it!! Perhaps South Aussie birds are made of sterner stuff than yours??
