I think you spoil the wildlife around your place Chris! I love the Butcher birds song, we have a couple in our back yard!
Are you expecting a shower of rain this morning? #10095989

You should hear him sing, he's very good. I'll have to agree, they could be a bit spoilt. If it was only a morning shower, it wouldn't have been so bad, it rainned here nearly all day!! We went to a outdoor machinery auction, that was moved indoors into a metal shed & could hardly hear a thing. #10096812

Excellent stop-motion shot, Chris. He looks a little ticked-off to me. Hunger will do that! #10111150
