Lockdown Birds! (Lockdown Project no.1)

Kia Ora! So as you all know, it is now the lockdown. That does stop us from meeting friends in real life. But it doesn't stop us from having fun. Recently it has been my birthday, and I got a birdfeeder set. It was good that I got it because in the Lockdown all the birds go crazy, because humans go out less. We have had two little wax-eyes, coming to the feeders at least four or three times every day. We have named them Mr and Mrs Waxie. They seem to be mates, so no surprise there. We heard from a friend they come in large groups, so maybe there are more of them in our frontyard tree. We can tell them apart, because one is rather plump, (or just has very fluffy feathers) and one has a longer beak. They love to feed on fat and lard, and are mostly seen scavenging for food in winter. Here is a photo of our feeders:

Whats a project you are doing in lockdown? We have three, and I shall explain them in other posts. Blog you later, Aoibheann! 😋
