The netting behind the bird bath is to stop the neighbourhood cat.
We had quite a storm last night and let the fire die down as it sounded as though the chimney was going. Today the forecast was for thunder storms but we awoke to some mist which soon dispersed and it is a lovely 19 degree sunny day. Once again the bad weather has gone further east with flooding on the Coromandel Peninsular.
Yes we got the storm too but it was more rain than wind here. As for the bird bath our cat would be too busy staring at the birds than anything else.
ReplyDeleteOur cat doesn't usually go there but there is one that is a real problem.
DeleteYou wanted rain, and it sounds like you have now received it in abundance.
ReplyDeleteIt will be I interesting to see how our dams are. We have rain forecast all next week.
DeleteI love watching birds bathing :)
ReplyDeleteThe worst of the storm missed us here.
Yes, they usually take off before we can get a photo.
DeleteI am glad that you take steps to protect the birds.
ReplyDeleteWe have netting all over the garden to try and stop the "neighbourhood" cat.
DeleteLovely bird photos. Looks as though he/she is enjoying itself
ReplyDeleteHaving a great time.
DeleteThat looks a really well enjoyed bath!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you are getting enough rain now, although the weather seems to have been "interesting" further South, with snow and ice, and 10C even further South!! Coromandel does seem to get it bad, but I suppose it wouldn't be so lush without so much rainfall!
Earlier in the week there was a temperature high of 3 degrees at the bottom of the South Island. Coromandel Peninsular had nearly a metre of rain.
