Lovely @Shaz51 @Former-Member & @utopia 

I didnt realise magpies lasted that long @Former-Member it is a lovely story.

Birds often make me feel less alone.  Watched 3 pelicans positioning for a feed last week and birds from the train.

Hi @Shaz51, gotta love Willy Wags, happy little fellas chirping and dancing about. My S1 says its his fav bird - not do noisy. Look like they are wearing a tucks. How are u & ya family today?

Yesterday there was a young Butcher Bird chatting away to himself watching every move I made, so close. They are quite melodic and let out the loudest burst of song now and then. They look a lot like magpies but stumpy. Will try post a pic of one.

The birds make me feel less lonely too @Appleblossom, full of surprises, and chatter and life. Was watching a sparrow family teaching a baby to fly recently, so cute, poor little thing got up to first tung on the fence, fell off, second - flew a bit, 3rd flee a little further & so on until he gut up to the first branch of the mulberry tree. I'm lucky on my eastside veranda here. How ya doing today sis? xox

Wow @Shaz51 I wanna live where U live! They are beautiful.

@Former-Member Quiet day after busy busy time. I only drove son into town centre, did a big supermarket shop, the dishes and phone calls etc.

I just had a scammer on my computer charge me $199 US ... ruddy cheek

At supermarket .. a NEW phone scam guy approached me at entry to fruit & veg section .. same supermaket as last time .. I think he got the message .. I was nice .. used nice words .. but had my little anti IT gadget rant .. so I guess I have to be careful .. cant be too vague .. or get ripped off.  I felt sorry for hm as he had to deal with my annoyance for previous guy .. so I told him not to take it personally.

We've had King Parrots around the house lately, a pair, they come real close and have that funny whistle call. Such bright red.
