Happy chappy. he is fascinated by wood piegons, annoyed at the starlings as they wont screech with him, joining in with the magpies racket ( :lol: :thumbsup: at 5.30am - payback for the neighbors waking me at 11.30 and 2.30 last night :yes: ) bit noisy, but otherwise happy. plenty of garden friends to chat to thru the window...he prefers listening to greatest showman than chanting monks on the cd player, although he seems to like Tara and medicine Buddha chants.minching away happiy on pear core and grapes along with his parrot mix.... :thumbsup:

The parking lot is starting to dry out, but the birds are enjoying it.

They get visitors from all over.

Found a goose! Weirdly though there doesn't seem to be as many birds about as there have been in past years.

Hmmm....

Wow, that's cool. Why do you need an army of Praying Mantises? What's that green artifact that one of them is crawling on?

The neighbor probably didn't interact with him as well as you do.
