Invaded By...

Invaded by a huge flock of rose-chested cockatoos yesterday afternoon, I had to sneak the chickens feeder to a secluded place so that the hungry horde wouldn't eat it all.

In amongst the first photo is one of the bunnies, brave little soul that it is. My chickens really struggle when this group descends into the garden. 

Try as I might to dissuade this massive flock from coming into the garden, nothing works as they have a sentry in the tree who makes a call as soon as I head to the feed bucket in the afternoon.

Thankfully, this is only a seasonal occurrence, and although they are noisy and eat such a lot. It is also humbling that they find my garden safe enough to come to...
