This morning heard a lot of screeching overhead – 1 sulphur crested being chased by a magpie & a noisy minah, I think they are the two that usually have breakfast together on my nature strip. Cockie must have intruded. (amazing to watch – they were dead set serious about getting the intruder)
Such an elegant creature. No wonder punkers like to spike their hair for distinction. I had a male cardinal visit as they do infrequently…when they think I am absent. I see them from the window, but they can’t see me. He leaves his mate at home.

Wise move by your magpie and minah, else before you know it more cockies would arrive and start ploughing up your nature strip.

I can never get over that bright red of the cardinal, I hope to see a real one, one day! And against snow, so brilliant. Thanks for sharing Carol Ann.
