The Birds - an update

I feel it is time to provide an update on the territorial bird war which is currently underway where we live.

You may remember that the cockatoos and plovers were contesting the obviously prime real estate close to our place. The cockatoos looked like they were winning - which makes sense. They are bigger, more certain of their inherent superiority and could do a mean body slam.

But they are gone.

The plovers are back, complete with baby plovers. This I find odd, as it is summer, and I always thought baby birds were born in spring. But there you have it.

And no sign of Cockatoos all week.

Maybe the plovers got a restraining order.
