Breakfast line!
A few weeks ago, our near manageable flocks of morning and afternoon Galah visitors morphed from a maximum of about 25 to 60 or more. Obviously, two local flocks got together for seed time and now this many is not unusual. So here is a typical group waiting patiently on the overhead wires out the back. Goodness knows what the neighbours and motorists think. God knows their names, we can only distinguish a few and even they tend to come separately....being brainy birds, why would you come and join in the melee this becomes! Needless to say, we feel somewhat like the famous Jane Goodall (Primatalogist) but we are instead Galah-otologists. We feel blessed by their presence and willingness for some at least to make a connection across the divide.
We have two busy days, sorting things out at Jenny's parent's care home, the management of which seems incapable of having any empathy towards their residents. A situation we never accept. We could write a revealing book and sadly, this is probably common with too many families of people in care.
