In December these 7 were released on to farm land at Opua and I think this bird, being handreared, was not wary enough of humans, unfortunately.
Anyway, 'Daisy' may or may not fly again but meanwhile, she seems very content foraging in my garden and being fed. She follows me about calling for me, chases all the other birds away and my cats. I like her very much.
I'm getting ready to release all my sparrows - released 2 the other day but they returned to me :)
Bottom photo is Daisy upon arrival and top photo was taken yesterday.
Oh Gilly! How can anyone be so cruel? Poor Daisy but it looks like you have worked your magic again, I do hope she continues to improve.
ReplyDeleteI was so sorry to read Pav had left home, you never know though he may still return.
Great news that the Silvereye is doing well...thanks to your tireless work of course. Well done Gilly, I think you are wonderful :)
She certainly looks a lot better now Gilly.l Hope Pav is doing all right too. Keep up the wonderful work you are doing.
ReplyDeleteThanks you two!
