Odds on I'll be getting more complaints today regarding my feeding of the native birds around my area.
Copped one yesterday morning as I was "wobbling" my way up to get my Sunday paper, etc, from a person known throughout the town as "Snoopy Simmons," aka around this area " Mrs Himmler," because he knows everyone's business because his wife, aka Mr. Himmler, tells him that it is so.
HIs ( her) complaint, " Stop feeding the native birds in your property immediately because my wife says that they have been "attacking her" while she is sitting In the shade-house watching me as I water her plants, etc, etc."
Yes, I know I have a pair of very BOLD Wood-pigeons who are NOT shy about dropping a incessant and loud taps on the front door IF breakfast is late in being served, I also have a number of Corellas who will sit on the power lines and, i presume, express their 'eagerness' to be fed in a quite vocal manner as well.
But as for native birds ACTUALLY flying in to an enclosed shade-house WITH humans, well I think Herr und Frau Himmler are human, actually inside it then you have to bloody well dreaming.
Just now as I went out to put out seed for the " Hungry Feathered Hordes" I noticed that Evangelidiots vehicle has again gathered itself yet another average sized smatterings of, presumably, Corella droppings and I am wondering if these are the end result of of himself and his latest efforts to discourage the corellas by aiming high pressure water type fire extinguishers at them whilst they try to feed in MY yard or perch on MY fence while they awaiting their turn at the food dishes?
IF any of the birds that choose to avail themselves of my offerings of a FREE breakfast are EVER found injured or dead and it can be proven that him and his extinguishers are the main cause then not ONLY will he be facing a Law Suit from me BUT an even bigger and harsher one from the National Parks and Wildlife Department who granted me the PRIVATE Sanctuary License in the first place.
