They're baaaaack! My beloved wild monk parrots have made their first stop at the dead tree they use as a staging area for my birdfeeder. There they were, three of them, up on the top branches of the tree when I went out to fill the feeder. The scouts squalked and took to flight, leaving this morning's offerings for the house sparrows and other birds that have been feeding for the past month.
Tomorrow morning will be different. I'll hear their squalks about 8 am, and then they will descend to the feeder and dominate it for the next 6 months. A rotation will evolve and other birds will have their feeding times too. I get a peek every workday morning before heading for work and their weekend visits for the price of seed and the care.
Welcome birdies all!

Hi Mary! I've missed you and reading your journal! (I'm back in circulation again!) I had to lol after reading your recent entries~ All I could think of was if Herbie the cat was still around, he'd probably be flying out your window to chase some Monk Parrots!

haha, chefgracegeorge! Herbie would be doing just that!
It's good to see you here again, and hope you'll join us in chat too.
