Guests for lunch today.

I made them sit outside on the BBQ, mainly because they're messy eaters!!

I had a roasted beef, rocket, jalapeno and ranch dressing sandwich. They
had minced beef.

What lovely guests! You are fortunate to have them visit you and you
are doing right to serve them something special, so that they will come
again.

They're *always* around. There was a group of 6 of them, all laughing
away at each other. It was quite deafening!!

The rest were quite skittish and just grabbed some meat and took off up
into the trees. The fella in the picture was just as curious of me as I
was of him!!

I had put out some thinly sliced roast beef (like what was on my
sandwich) but wasn't quick enough with the camera for the swooping and
snatching!!

The same guy was back again this morning. His mates did the swoop, scoop
and scoot, he just sat on the table, had a lesuirely feed whilst looking
at what I was doing in the kitchen.
