A couple of weeks ago I posted about the maggies that were now coming to the back veranda for a feed. Well, things have moved up a notch! About 5 or 6 of the 8 to 12 that turn up are regularly eating out of my hand now, and the family tends to come twice a day. I give them sausage meat in the morning and peanuts or cashews in the afternoon. And they just stand quietly right at the back door most times, waiting for one of us to notice them, though sometimes they start carolling loudly announcing their presence. They all have personalities and I can now recognise one or two from the others.
Here are some pics taken yesterday…

So, do you have any food for me and my mob?
Maybe I'll have a drink while we wait...
