Kaka!  How cool is that, OHH!  Now you definitely need a fruit hedge. It would seem the predator free teams are finally making some headway.  It's up to all of us though, keeping rat traps out and so on.  My sister never believed there were rats in town, they were 'a country thing'.  I shook my head in despair lol.  She changed her mind when one of her mouse traps caught one lol.

MrK and I spent a very happy 45 minutes or so watching two fantails 'courting' (MrK's description lol) just before sunset.  I think the male was looking for the female this morning too   Fingers crossed they decide to move into our garden now that the magpies and starlings have been removed.  We've had a pair nest here before but not for a couple of years.  They would visit, bathe under the hose, eat bugs and go. Such a joy to watch.

happy crafting
