Hi All,
Just back from Newhaven and our wonderful Princess Parrot experience! One of my all time birding highlights. Being in dune country just on dawn with these wonderful birds flying around – magic!!
Thanks so much to Joe and Danae for being so welcoming, and to Peter and Toni who are doing a fantastic job of making sure all visitors see the parrots. They have been up before dawn just about everyday since the parrots turned up – a huge undertaking from them and much appreciated.
Flying out of Alice yesterday I had a wonderful experience with budgies. As the plane was taxiing to the end of the runway, two budgies flew up on to the wing of the 737 and traveled for a couple of hundred meters before flying off. Long enough for me to dig my mobile out and stuff up getting a photo or two (Arrgghh – it would have made a great photo!) It made me think if anyone else has ever had a similar experience with birds hitching a ride in this fashion.
Kind regards
Judith
