Willie Wag Tail

Willie Wag Tail
The bird Sat enjoying the warmth of the Sun


As it very wet and school holiday's we coped a very bad set of days that where dry to cut down trees. my day off is friday but was only dry day and saturday to cut out peppers trees that have been left to grow wild in the school grounds. we did not want to climb ladders on a wet day and cut out trees. I got home stuffed on saturday went to bed early.

Next friday is looking much the same I have 14 blocks to lay so do not need a wet day at all so far friday next week is shaping up as my only dry day. Each block is 33 kg so it's not going to be a super fast lay more a calculated one.

HFF I have miss for work at the school.

This wag tail moves side to side as it wags a very distinctive movement one that will land close to you or even follow you as you stir up insects. The best lens to take with you for birds, HFF hope you had a better weekend that I did..
