BUTCHER BIRDS

One of the regular visitors to my garden is a Butcher Bird named Butcher for obvious reasons ! He has the most beautiful melodic call but he doesn't often sing - only when he wants me to put some food out for him and I'm a little slow at co-operating. He isn't a large bird by any means, about 10 inches or so long, but the one that comes here is a real character.




Waiting patiently.........



.....but not too patiently.........


and if there is a little bacon fat beside the barbecue going spare then why not.......

Just what I wanted.
